đ Your next challenge
Join Pluxee as a Senior Backend Engineer and play a key role in building the integration layer that connects our platform with our customersâ ecosystems. Youâll join the Integrations Squad, the team responsible for designing and operating the systems that allow companies, partners, and providers to seamlessly integrate with Cobee by Pluxee.
This is a critical mission: our integrations are a strategic entry point to the platform. Reliability, backward compatibility, clear contracts, and operational excellence are essential. We donât just expose APIs â we build robust, scalable integration solutions that external systems depend on every day.
What Youâll Do
Design Integration-First Systems: Design and evolve backend services and APIs that enable secure, reliable, and scalable integrations with customer and partner systems (HRIS, payroll, benefits providers, etc.).
API & Contract Ownership: Define, version, and maintain API contracts (REST, async events), ensuring backward compatibility and a smooth developer experience for external consumers.
Handle Real-World Complexity: Build systems that gracefully handle partial failures, retries, idempotency, rate limiting, and inconsistent external data.
Event-Driven & Distributed Architectures: Evolve existing synchronous flows into scalable, event-driven architectures that support growing integration needs across multiple markets.
Quality & Reliability at the Edge: Ensure high test coverage (unit, integration, contract tests) and validate integrations through sandbox environments, mocks, and automated validation pipelines.
Operational Excellence & Observability: Monitor integration health in production, detect anomalies, and troubleshoot issues across system boundaries using logs, metrics, and traces.
Technical Leadership: Lead by example through strong code reviews, mentoring, and documentation. Help define integration standards, best practices, and reusable patterns for the squad and beyond.
Our Technical Stack
Backend Core: Node.js (TypeScript), NestJS (or similar frameworks)
APIs & Integrations: REST APIs, SFTP, Async messaging patterns
Data & State: MongoDB, PostgresSQL, ClickHouse
Infrastructure: AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, GitLab CI/CD
Observability: Datadog
Youâre a Match If You Have a Few of the Below
Proven Senior Expertise: 3+ years of experience building and maintaining production-grade backend systems, ideally in the Node.js ecosystem.
The âIntegrations Mindsetâ: Hands-on experience building APIs or partner integrations. Familiarity with external system constraints, SLAs, and contract-driven development.
Distributed Systems Knowledge: Strong understanding of idemptecy, retries, eventual consistency, race conditions, and failure handling across system boundaries.
Customer-Centric Engineering: You care about developer experience, clear documentation, predictable behavior, and making integrations easy to adopt and operate.
Quality & Security First: Experience with automated testing strategies and a strong focus on data protection, authentication, authorization, and secure integrations.
Growth Mindset: Curious, open to feedback, and motivated to continuously improve both your own skills and the teamâs engineering culture.
