Job Description

• Join Everywai’s core engineering team to architect and scale the backend for Velora’s next generation of spiritual engagement tools—all from wherever you call home. • As a senior backend engineer, you will play a central role in developing, evolving, and scaling our proprietary Relay Engine (real-time sermon/audio analysis) and our Sync Engine (keeping clients in perfect sync with backend infrastructure in real-time). • Architect and implement scalable backend services using TypeScript, GraphQL, and WebSocket on AWS. • Drive the development and optimization of Velora’s Relay Engine and Sync Engine powering real-time sermon processing, live updates, and seamless client-server synchronization. • Lead infrastructure reliability, security, and system performance initiatives (PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM, Redis, AWS Copilot/ECS). • Uphold high standards of code quality, business logic design, and maintainability. • Integrate cutting-edge AI services (OpenAI, natural language processing), 3rd-party APIs, and observability tooling. • Make strategic architectural decisions (service abstractions, schema/version management, WebSocket protocols, etc). • Develop and enforce comprehensive backend testing (integration, E2E, CI/CD via GitHub Actions). • Collaborate with product and mobile teams to deliver complex features (real-time audio transcription, sermon outlining, analytics). • Diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve complex production issues including scaling, networking, and observability.

Job Requirements

  • 7+ years software engineering experience, with 5+ years in TypeScript/Node.js in production backends.
  • Advanced experience building GraphQL APIs (Nexus schema-first a plus).
  • Mastery of PostgreSQL (Prisma experience preferred), Redis, and scalable caching.
  • Strong cloud-native skills (AWS, Docker) and CI/CD best practices.
  • Proven ability to build and maintain real-time data streams (WebSocket/Socket.io/etc).
  • Familiar with secure cloud architectures.
  • Bonus: Experience with AI/ML APIs, real-time media (speech/audio), or faith/nonprofit tech.
  • Values-driven, autonomous, and strong communicator.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation (hourly or retainer, with equity/options considered for exceptional candidates)
  • Collaborative, high-trust culture focused on craftsmanship and impact
