Echosec Systems is looking for a backend developer on the Platform Engineering team who enjoys working within the node.js ecosystem to creatively solve problems related to web crawling, data aggregation, data ingestion, and building a robust API that handles millions of searches per day.

The Platform Engineering team primarily addresses the data needs problems for Echosec Systems and provides a lot of opportunities to learn and integrate new technologies.

We work primarily with node.js (Nest.js), Typescript, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes, and Elasticsearch.

You’ll join a small, but growing team of developers who are actively learning and flexible in their process, but value code review, unit testing, and continuous learning.

Types of Projects You May Work On:

Building out the dark web and clear web data collection infrastructure and algorithms.
Building an enrichment pipeline that integrates with our Natural Language Processing services to categorize data and provide location inference.
Implement robust performance monitoring and tracing across the entire backend stack.
A lot of greenfield development. We like to ship new code and then refactor it.
Building out a GeoIP microservice.
Mentorship for new graduates and developers just starting their careers.
