Who you are
- The ideal candidate is a proactive problem-solver with deep expertise across both frontend and backend technologies, capable of driving innovation and delivering robust software solutions that are central to our core business
- A seasoned engineer with 5+ years of experience building and scaling complex web applications
- Strong proficiency in modern frontend technologies: TypeScript, JavaScript, React.js, Node.js, GraphQL, and related web development tools
- Deep understanding of component-based architecture and state management in modern JavaScript frameworks
- Proficiency in server-side development using Node.js/Express or similar frameworks, with experience designing scalable backend systems and APIs

What the job involves
- We’re looking for a highly skilled and experienced Senior Fullstack Software Engineer based in Dublin, Ireland, with a demonstrated history of successfully leading complex web application projects

- Design, develop, and maintain complex, fullstack web applications with a focus on scalability, performance, and maintainability
- Architect and implement backend APIs and services using Node.js and Express (or similar frameworks)
- Build and maintain robust, responsive frontend components and user interfaces with React.js, TypeScript, and Ant Design
- Develop and integrate with GraphQL, REST APIs to power interactive and real-time features
- Design and optimize relational and NoSQL database schemas; write efficient queries for performance and scalability
- Define and implement testing strategies, including unit, integration, and end-to-end testing
- Work closely with Product, UX, QA, and other engineering teams to plan, build, and deliver key features

Our take
Software-defined vehicles represent the biggest innovation in automobiles for decades, but there are large obstacles in the way of their growth. The software that defines such vehicles requires over-the-air (OTA) updates and other forms of maintenance, which can quickly become a time-consuming and resource-intensive process.
Sonatus develops cloud-based solutions for software-defined vehicles, providing a platform called Digital Dynamics that empowers automakers to harness vehicle data, add feature updates, diagnose problems, and maintain vehicle infrastructure wirelessly and in real time. The company achieves its flexibility through cloud-empowered data infrastructure, no-code software solutions, and working closely with clients.
Whilst the company faces competition from other IoT vehicle software companies, Sonatus shows great potential to compete through its all-in-one approach. This has earned it impressive funding, which supports further development and the increase of production volume, as well as the company's expansion into the Japanese market.
