About the job Backend Developer (Node.js/Python) - Hybrid Porto (1 day/week office)

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

An international consulting engagement in the Telecommunications sector is looking for a Backend Developer to join a cross-functional team working on a global-scale project. If you bring strong backend fundamentals, a cloud-native mindset, and the kind of ownership mentality that makes distributed teams work — this is a solid opportunity to contribute to meaningful, international work from Porto.

Language: English B2 minimum | Location: Porto-based (1 day/week in office)

PROJECT & CONTEXT

You'll be working on an international Telco project where backend development intersects with cloud platforms, API integrations, and agile delivery. The environment is fast-moving and collaborative, with cross-functional teams spanning multiple geographies. Expect a structured delivery culture where accountability, proactivity, and clear communication are as valued as technical skill.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Strong programming skills in JavaScript (Node.js) and/or Python, with production-grade backend development experience
• Solid experience working with cloud platforms and designing or consuming APIs in distributed system contexts
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and hands-on experience with version control systems such as GitLab or GitHub
• Experience working with PDLC tools such as Jira for agile project and delivery management
• Comfortable operating in agile environments, collaborating effectively across cross-functional and international teams
• Strong problem-solving mindset with sharp attention to detail
• Ownership mentality — you take accountability for your work end-to-end, without waiting to be directed
• Structured, process-driven approach balanced with a proactive, solution-oriented attitude
• Clear and effective communication skills, both written and verbal, in English (B2 or above)
• Based in or willing to commute to Porto for 1 day per week

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience in Telco industry projects or similarly complex, regulated environments
• Familiarity with microservices architecture and containerisation (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
• Exposure to event-driven architectures or message brokers (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ)
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code or cloud-native deployment practices (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure)
