The Role
MapsPeople is entering a pivotal phase of AI-led transformation and growth, shaping the future of spatial intelligence and indoor navigation for large enterprise customers worldwide. We are looking for a Senior TypeScript Engineer to join our team and play a key role in building and evolving our platform using a modern TypeScript-first stack, complemented by high-performance backend services in Golang.
You will work across the full stack, from crafting responsive front-end experiences to designing robust back-end services, within a collaborative, quality-driven engineering culture.
What You'll Do
• Design, build, and maintain full-stack applications using TypeScript, React (or Angular), and Node.js-based frameworks
• Architect and implement scalable, type-safe APIs and services using both Node.js and Golang
• Build and maintain high-performance backend services in Golang for scalable and distributed systems
• Contribute to and champion best practices within a monorepo codebase (Nx, Turborepo, or similar)
• Collaborate with product, design, and platform teams to deliver high-quality features end to end
• Participate in code reviews, technical design discussions, and mentoring of junior engineers
• Improve developer experience through tooling, automation, and CI/CD pipeline enhancements
• Work with cloud infrastructure on GCP, AWS, or Azure to deploy and operate production services
What We're Looking For
• 5+ years of professional experience in TypeScript/JavaScript development
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript across both front-end and back-end
• Solid experience with React or Angular (experience with both is a plus)
• Strong backend experience with both Node.js and Golang, including building scalable services and APIs
• Experience designing and building services in Golang (REST/GraphQL APIs, concurrency patterns, performance optimization)
• Hands-on experience with Node.js frameworks such as NestJS, Fastify, or similar
• Experience leveraging AI-first coding workflows and spec-driven development practices using tools like Codex or similar
• Proven experience working in a monorepo environment (Nx, Turborepo, Lerna, or similar)
• Strong programming fundamentals, data structures, algorithms, design patterns, and problem-solving
• Familiarity with relational databases (PostgreSQL preferred) and RESTful/GraphQL API design
• Experience with cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure), including CI/CD, containerization, and infrastructure basics
• Comfortable working with Git, pull request workflows, and modern development tooling
Nice-to-Have
• Prior experience with .NET (C#) or Java in an enterprise setting
• Familiarity with the TAAN stack
• Experience with message queues, event-driven architectures, or microservices patterns
• Exposure to infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Pulumi, CDK)
• Experience with observability and monitoring tools (Datadog, Grafana, etc.)
• Contributions to open-source projects or internal developer tooling
Why Join Us?
• Work on a modern TypeScript-first platform complemented by Golang services
• Be part of a collaborative, quality-driven engineering culture
• Influence architecture, tooling, and developer experience
• Build products used by leading global organizations
• Grow your skills in a team that values learning and innovation
