About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Design, build, and operate backend services and platform foundations enabling reliable, secure, and maintainable C2 operations across Nova Cloud deployments
- Own and ship critical Nova Core backend services, including common APIs, configuration services, tenant/environment lifecycle, and shared domain libraries
- Design stable, backward-compatible API contracts, including schemas, versioning, and deprecation/migration playbooks
- Build and evolve data models and persistence layers, including schema evolution, migrations, correctness guarantees, and safe rollout strategies
- Establish production-grade observability with structured logging, metrics, tracing, dashboards, actionable alerts, and runbooks
- Reduce incident frequency and improve MTTD/MTTR through instrumentation and post-incident improvements
- Implement secure-by-default backend patterns including least privilege, secret management, audit events, and policy hooks
- Contribute to and enforce RBAC/permissions and authorization checks across services and APIs
- Add security-focused tests and CI/CD gates informed by threat modeling
- Build and maintain shared backend libraries and SDKs with documentation and examples
- Improve developer experience through faster local workflows, environment parity, dockerized dependencies, seeded data, and rapid test feedback
- Strengthen contract, integration, and performance testing to detect cross-service breakages
- Diagnose and fix performance bottlenecks involving latency, caching, concurrency, and database query efficiency
- Refactor brittle areas and reduce targeted technical debt
- Communicate trade-offs and collaborate with dependent engineering and product teams
Requirements
What you’ll need- 5+ years building and operating production backend systems and services
- Strong experience in API design, backend architecture, and evolving contracts safely over time
- Solid data modeling and persistence experience (SQL and/or NoSQL), including migrations and schema evolution
- Demonstrated operational ownership: observability, on-call readiness, incident response, and production debugging
- Security-first backend engineering experience, including authn/authz patterns and audit/event design
- Strong testing discipline (unit/integration/contract testing) and ability to build reliable systems under real-world constraints
- Clear communication and cross-team collaboration skills; comfortable aligning stakeholders on architecture decisions
- Experience with platform foundations for multi-service environments (nice to have)
- Experience with multi-tenant systems, tenant lifecycle management, and environment provisioning patterns (nice to have)
- Experience with distributed systems reliability patterns (nice to have)
- Experience with performance engineering and cost-aware backend optimization (nice to have)
- Experience in defence tech / C2/C4ISR / tactical systems, constrained deployments, or regulated/on-prem environments (nice to have)
- Legally authorized to work in the country for which applying
- Ability to answer whether employment sponsorship from UFORCE is required now or in the future
