Senior Software Engineer (Node.js & TypeScript)

📍 Location: Oslo, Norway | Malta | Remote

🔹 Employment Type: Full-time

MEWB is a remote-first, engineering-led software studio building high-performance systems for FinTech, DeFi, and Gaming. Our work goes beyond standard backend development—we build scalable, high-availability platforms from the ground up that power real-time financial transactions, blockchain integrations, and cutting-edge gaming experiences.

We don’t do external consulting. We are a tight-knit in-house team of software engineers, solving hard technical problems together. If you love building complex distributed systems, designing APIs that scale, and working with a high-caliber team, we’d love to talk.

Why Join MEWB?

• Greenfield projects – No legacy maintenance, no outdated tech. Build from scratch.
• Remote-first & async-friendly – Work from anywhere in Europe. We keep meetings to a minimum and collaborate efficiently.
• Strong engineering culture – Work with some of the best engineers in FinTech, blockchain, and gaming.
• Serious impact – Build systems that handle millions of transactions, real-time data, and high-traffic loads.

What You’ll Work On

• Develop high-performance backend services with Node.js & TypeScript.
• Architect scalable APIs using REST, GraphQL, and WebSockets.
• Build and maintain microservices and event-driven systems.
• Work with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) to deploy containerized services using Docker & Kubernetes.
• Implement CI/CD pipelines to automate testing, deployment, and observability.
• Collaborate with engineers across FinTech, blockchain, and gaming projects.

What We’re Looking For

✔️ 4+ years of backend development experience with Node.js & TypeScript.

✔️ Experience with NestJS, Express, or Fastify.

✔️ Strong database knowledge: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, or DynamoDB.

✔️ Experience with event-driven architecture (Kafka, RabbitMQ, NATS).

✔️ Experience deploying and scaling cloud-based applications in AWS, GCP, or Azure.

✔️ Problem-solving mindset – we tackle hard engineering challenges daily.

Bonus Skills

➕ Experience in FinTech, DeFi, AI Gaming, or Blockchain.

➕ Experience with real-time systems & WebSockets.

➕ Knowledge of serverless architectures (AWS Lambda, Cloud Run, Azure Functions).

Why Engineers Choose MEWB

At MEWB, engineering comes first. We build high-performance systems with a focus on scalability, reliability, and efficiency. You’ll be working alongside a top-tier team of engineers who care about clean code, robust architecture, and solving real-world problems.

We work remotely and asynchronously as much as possible, but we also know when to meet, brainstorm, and align to move fast. If you want to be part of a strong engineering culture, work on exciting new projects, and own what you build, MEWB is the right place for you.

Let’s Talk

The first chat is informal and no pressure, just a way to see if we're the right fit for each other.
