• API Development: Contribute significantly to the design and implementation of robust APIs using GraphQL (Apollo Server) for seamless frontend-backend interactions.
• Collaboration: Work closely with cross-functional teams to understand requirements and implement scalable backend solutions that align with business needs.
Skills/Requirements
• AWS Expertise: Proficiency in AWS services (AWS CDK (Cloud Development Kit), Lambda, RDS, Redshift, DynamoDB, S3) and strong problem-solving abilities for backend infrastructure.
• Serverless & NodeJS: Mastery in serverless architecture, NodeJS, and quantitative/analytical skills for efficient backend development.
• GraphQL & Apollo Server: Extensive experience in GraphQL, particularly with Apollo Server, ensuring robust API design and management.
• TypeScript Proficiency: Solid skills in TypeScript for writing maintainable and scalable backend code.
• DevOps & Agile Knowledge: Familiarity with DevOps practices, Agile methodologies, and their application in backend development workflows.

• Jest & Testing: Ability to write comprehensive tests (using Jest or similar) to maintain backend reliability.
• Database Management: Expertise in managing databases (RDS, Redshift, DynamoDB, S3) for optimal data access and storage.
• Communication & Collaboration: Excellent communication, collaboration, and delegation skills to work effectively within cross-functional teams.
• AWS Certification & Hospitality Industry Experience: AWS certification would be advantageous, and any experience within the hospitality industry would also be a beneficial plus for this role.
