Enterprise Node.js Backend Development

Are you looking for an experienced Nodejs backend engineer/architect who can build robust, scalable, and maintainable Node.js applications from the ground up? Look no further.

I am the founder of Gotedo Platform (the largest technology platform for churches and Christians (https://about.gotedo.com). I am a senior backend engineer with 9+ years of experience, and I consider myself an expert in JavaScript, TypeScript, NodeJS, and Golang. I don't just write code; I architect large-scale technology systems built for performance and reliability.

✅ What This Service Includes:

1. Full API Lifecycle Development: From concept to deployment, I will design, develop, and maintain your backend API. I have personally developed over 2000 API endpoints in my career.
2. Robust Architecture: I build systems that last. At Gotedo, I architected and developed a massive Node.js API backend that currently features over 300 PostgreSQL tables and 600 API routes. This demonstrates my ability to manage and scale complex codebases.
3. Test-Driven Development (TDD): I deliver resilient, test-driven code at scale using best practices. I instilled this discipline in my previous teams, resulting in a backend fortified by over 10,000 functional tests. At a previous company I worked for, I inherited a codebase with zero tests and single-handedly initiated a comprehensive testing strategy, growing it to over 5000 tests.
4. Scalability & Performance: I know how to build for high-volume transactions. When using Node.js, I implement various techniques to saturate all CPU cores during deployment, avoiding premature scaling. I also build high-throughput caching layers with stampede protection and implement concurrency controls using in-memory or Redis-based mutex locks.
5. Security & Error Handling: Your API will have robust input validation, authentication, authorization, appropriate response structures (including HATEOAS), and central error handling.
6. My Proven Expertise: My experience isn't just theoretical. I have built large-scale systems from scratch. I've used almost all modules in Node.js for various production applications. I am an expert in object-oriented programming (OOP) and design patterns, such as implementing plugin architectures via polymorphism, which is critical for integrating numerous 3rd-party providers. I am also an expert in building safe and performant server-side rendered (SSR) applications using Node.js.

✅ My Technology Stack

1. Languages: JavaScript, TypeScript, Bash.
2. Frameworks: Node.js, AdonisJS, Strapi, Nestjs, Nextjs, Expressjs.
3. Databases: PostgreSQL, Redis, MySQL.
4. Queues: PostgreSQL/PgBoss, BullMQ, RabbitMQ, AWS SQS.
5. DevOps: Docker, GitHub Actions, Nginx.
