A Node.js developer is a software engineer who specializes in developing applications using the Node.js runtime environment. Node.js is an open-source, server-side JavaScript runtime that allows developers to build scalable and high-performance network applications. As a Node.js developer, your primary focus will be on developing server-side logic, managing the interchange of data between the server and users, and integrating external systems or services into the application.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Develop server-side logic using Node.js to power scalable and high-performance applications.
- Design and implement APIs and web services for seamless data interchange between the server and clients(Front End).
- Collaborate with front-end developers to integrate user-facing elements with server-side logic.
- Optimize applications for maximum performance, scalability, and reliability.
- Implement security and data protection measures to ensure the integrity and privacy of user information.
- Debug issues that arise in the development, testing, and production environments.
- Stay up-to-date with emerging trends and technologies in Node.js and JavaScript.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Proficiency in Node.js and JavaScript, with a solid understanding of its ecosystem and core concepts.
- Experience in building server-side applications using frameworks such as Express.js.
- Knowledge of databases and SQL/MySQL, including design and optimization.
- Experience with version control systems, such as Git.
- Understanding of asynchronous programming.
