Senior Software Engineer

Description:

Are you ready to make a true difference with cutting-edge data solutions? Vetric isn’t just another tech company - we’re on a mission to empower critical businesses in public safety, cyber security, and business intelligence with the data they need, exactly how and when they need it.

Vetric is the secret weapon for companies across cybersecurity, digital risk protection and business intelligence. We are the industry leader: Turning messy, fragmented web data into rock-solid, structured, stable, and scalable pipelines. We get rid of the noise so our customers can move fast, stay sharp, and focus on what matters.

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Software Engineer to join our team and play a key role in building a brand-new product from the ground up. You will be responsible for designing, developing, and leading high-scale, event-driven backend systems while working closely with cross-functional teams. Since we are shaping something new, we’re looking for someone who can learn quickly, adapt to change, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.

Why Vetric?

We’re profitable, fast-growing, and proudly independent, with over 100 customers and record-breaking ARR, all without raising a cent.

We take pride in building things that actually work at scale. No duct tape. No drama.

You’ll join a team that moves fast, builds clean, and sweats the details, because when the stakes are high, stability matters.

If you’re excited by hard problems and real impact, you’ll fit right in.

Role & Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain backend services using Node.js and TypeScript.
• Design and implement high-performance APIs and event-driven, large-scale system architecture on AWS, ensuring scalability and reliability for intensive workloads.
• Work with PostgreSQL and other databases to ensure performance and scalability.
• Lead the design and delivery of features end to end, collaborating closely with product and engineering teams.
• Mentor teammates and uphold best practices in code quality and security.
• Adapt quickly to new tools and technologies as the product evolves.

• 5+ years of hands-on experience with Node.js and TypeScript in production environments.
• Strong experience with AWS services (e.g., Lambda, ECS, S3, RDS).
• Proficiency with PostgreSQL or other SQL-based databases.
• Solid understanding of system design, event-driven architecture, and scalability.
• Proficiency with modern testing frameworks (e.g., Vitest, Jest, Playwright).
• Proven ability to learn quickly and adapt in dynamic, fast-changing environments.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

We’d be lucky if you:

• Background in distributed systems or event-driven architecture.
• Experience with Temporal.
• Experience with LLMs and modern AI tools.
• Knowledge of React.
• Familiarity with NoSQL databases (e.g., DynamoDB, MongoDB).
• Experience with Graph databases.
• Experience with AWS Athena.
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and DevOps practices (including CI/CD).

We hire people, not just skills. We encourage you to apply if you think this role is a great fit for you, even if you don’t meet 100% of the requirements.
