You’ll work on reusable platform capabilities that expose business logic, data, and contextual information securely and consistently to different types of consumers.</p> <p>We’re looking for someone who thinks beyond individual endpoints and is comfortable making practical decisions about API design, security, data access, and platform architecture.</p> <p><strong>What You’ll Do</strong></p> <ul> <li>Design and build APIs that are consumed by multiple applications and services.</li> <li>Develop reusable platform capabilities rather than one-off integrations.</li> <li>Build and maintain APIs for business logic, data access, and analytical use cases.</li> <li>Design secure authentication and authorization patterns for different types of consumers.</li> <li>Implement fine-grained access controls and help define clear trust boundaries between systems.</li> <li>Build custom services where standard or generated API tooling is not sufficient.</li> <li>Work closely with application and product teams to turn different requirements into coherent platform capabilities.</li> <li>Help establish API standards around contracts, error handling, versioning, reliability, performance, and security.</li> <li>Monitor and troubleshoot production APIs and improve their performance and maintainability.</li> <li>Contribute to APIs and platform capabilities that support emerging AI-driven use cases.</li> </ul> <p><strong>What You Bring</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>3–5 years of experience</strong> building production APIs and backend services.</li> <li>Strong experience with at least one modern backend language, ideally <strong>Python or TypeScript</strong>.</li> <li>Solid understanding of API design using technologies such as REST and GraphQL.</li> <li>Hands-on experience with authentication and authorization in production systems.</li> <li>Experience designing APIs or services used by more than one application, team, or type of consumer.</li> <li>Strong SQL skills and a good understanding of data modeling.</li> <li>Good understanding of application and API security principles.</li> <li>Experience working with modern data-access, API, or semantic-layer technologies.</li> <li>Ability to reason about technical trade-offs and communicate them clearly.</li> <li>Comfortable working across application, data, and platform concerns rather than within a narrowly defined backend stack.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Nice to Have</strong></p> <ul> <li>Experience building internal platforms or shared developer infrastructure.</li> <li>Experience with identity and access management systems.</li> <li>Familiarity with fine-grained or policy-based authorization models.</li> <li>Experience with analytical or semantic data layers.</li> <li>Familiarity with APIs or data-access patterns designed for AI-enabled applications.</li> <li>Experience with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, and observability.</li> </ul> <p><strong>What Success Looks Like</strong></p> <p>You build APIs that are secure, reusable, understandable, and easy for other teams to consume. You can distinguish between something that should become a shared platform capability and something that should remain application-specific, and you make sound engineering decisions without over-engineering the solution.</p> <p>Salary Range: €50,000 - €60,000 per year</p><div class="content-conclusion"><p><strong>What We Offer</strong></p> <p>At BGBx, we invest in our people because exceptional talent drives exceptional work.
