Our Mission and Vision At Solidgate, our mission is clear: to empower outstanding entrepreneurs to build exceptional internet companies. We exist to fuel the builders — the ones shaping the digital economy — with the financial infrastructure they deserve. To achieve that, we’re on a bold path: to become the #1 payments orchestration platform in the world. About the Team and Role As a Node.js Engineer in the Launch Team, you’ll power the backend behind acquisition and activation — helping merchants move from first touch to processing payments in production faster.
You will build the fastest path from “I’m interested” to “I’m live.” You’ll shape and evolve these core components: * Digital Onboarding microservice — the single source of truth for legal entities, individuals, and contracts across the ecosystem. Backend for solidgate.com and docs.solidgate.com — the core entry points for merchants. * A proprietary CRM aligned with audit and legal requirements.
Why it’s different * You’ll reduce Time-to-Live — directly impacting growth. * You’ll shape the evolving Node.js stack (no legacy drag). * You’ll design resilient, durable and scalable systems targeting 99.99% uptime. * You’ll use AI to ship faster and embed AI-powered features into the product.
Tech Stack Launch is one of the first teams driving the Node.js stack at Solidgate.
We don’t just adopt tools — we define standards, practices, and engineering culture that other teams follow. What we use: * Fastify — lightweight, high-performance web server * gRPC + Protobuf — typed service-to-service communication * PostgreSQL + Drizzle ORM — reliable data layer with a modern query builder * Kafka (@platformatic/kafka) — streaming-first, event-driven architecture * Vitest — unit and functional testing
Plus custom solutions: distributed locks, metrics, streamers, and more. Explore our full technology stack ➡️ here.
The stack is still evolving — meaning real influence. No legacy baggage. Just modern Node.js running on mature architectural rails inspired by the Golang ecosystem. What you’ll be doing * Automating KYB & compliance (onboarding + ongoing). * Building dynamic, country-aware onboarding forms. * Creating a self-serve registration funnel. * Developing an automated risk management system for merchants. * Implementing AI-powered document flows with secure handling of sensitive data.
Who you are * Strong ownership and clear tech POV. * You ship production-ready systems, not just features. * 2+ years of Node.js backend experience with solid TypeScript skills. * Confident with testing (unit/integration/e2e). * Comfortable with distributed systems principles.
