Are you a seasoned backend engineer who thrives on building scalable, event-driven systems in a cloud-native environment? Do you want to be part of a high-performing team shaping the infrastructure and core services behind a leading e-commerce platform?
We’re hiring on behalf of Whiteaway Group for their tech HQ in Aarhus. Join a product-centric company that has scaled rapidly across Scandinavia, driven by a strong digital mindset and a relentless focus on delivering outstanding customer experiences.
Why Join Whiteaway Group?
Whiteaway Group is a digital-first retail company shipping household appliances across Scandinavia. What started as a fresh idea in the backroom of a Danish kitchen store has grown into a leading player in the market. At the heart of this growth is a modern, autonomous tech organization committed to quality, experimentation, and delivery.
Your Role as a Senior Backend Engineer
You’ll be a key member of one of several autonomous squads, working alongside experienced software engineers to design and develop mission-critical backend systems. Whether it’s commercial operations, customer experience, sales, or delivery, you’ll help build and scale the backend that powers it all.
What You’ll Do
- Design, implement, and maintain microservices using TypeScript/Node.js running in a cloud-native (AWS) environment.
- Lead architectural decisions and shape the future of our backend platform using domain-driven design and event-driven patterns.
- Collaborate closely with product managers, developers, and DevOps engineers to deliver reliable and maintainable systems.
- Ensure performance, security, and observability are first-class concerns in all your solutions.
- Mentor peers through pairing, MOB programming, and code reviews
Your Background
We’re looking for someone who combines deep backend expertise with curiosity and leadership:
- Solid experience building scalable backend systems using TypeScript/Node.js (or equivalent modern stacks).
- Strong grasp of system design, DDD, event-driven architecture, and RESTful/async APIs.
- Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (preferably AWS) and containerized environments (Docker/Kubernetes).
- Familiarity with both SQL and NoSQL databases.
- Experience with MACH principles and microservice orchestration.
- Comfortable working in agile teams, taking ownership of features and mentoring others.
Experience with high-traffic e-commerce or logistics systems is a plus but not required.
What Whiteaway Offers
- A flat, informal, and tech-driven organization where developers have real ownership
- A supportive culture centered on experimentation, continuous learning, and delivery
- Hackathons, pair & MOB programming, and access to learning resources
