Role Overview
We are looking for an experienced Full Stack Engineer to migrate existing Node.js microservices (Node 8 / Node 14) to Node.js 24 LTS of a telecom client’s platform that maintains the feasibility of delivering network services to any address in the country they operate.
The role is delivery focused with hands-on experience, requiring strong backend expertise in Node.js microservices, combined with pragmatic front-end and integration awareness, ensuring zero functional or API behaviour change during migration.
The engineer will work closely with Technical Leads, QA, and client SMEs to deliver a safe, controlled, and industrialised upgrade aligned to enterprise security, CI/CD, and governance standards.
Key Responsibilities
- Upgrade Node.js microservices from Node.js 8 and 14 to Node.js 24 LTS
- Refactor code to remediate:
- Deprecated Node.js APIs
- Legacy callback patterns → async/await modernisation
- Dependency incompatibilities introduced by Node.js LTS upgrades
- Ensure backward compatibility and contract integrity across all services
- Work with Express.js-based microservices using TypeScript / JavaScript
- Upgrade and validate integrations using:
- REST APIs
- Authentication mechanisms (JWT / OAuth2 – existing patterns only)
- Redis or equivalent caching layers
- Validate integrations with downstream systems, portals, and automation components
- Support CI/CD pipeline updates for Node.js 24 compatibility
- Execute npm install / npm test, unit testing and regression testing (where applicable)
- Fix migration-related defects and ensure clean builds
- Support CVE remediation via dependency upgrades
- Re-run vulnerability scans post-migration and validate outcomes
- Support UI endpoint updates (React-based portals) only where required due to backend upgrades
- Ensure no UI redesign or functional enhancement is introduced
- Coordinate with frontend or portal teams for validation and smoke testing
Mandatory Skills & Experience
- Strong experience with Node.js (LTS versions) in enterprise environments
- Hands-on experience with Express.js microservices
- Solid understanding of:
- Node.js runtime changes across major versions
- Dependency management and npm ecosystem
- Experience with TypeScript / modern JavaScript (ES6+)
- Working knowledge of React.js and frontend-backend integration
- Experience with:
- RESTful APIs
- JWT / OAuth2 authentication flows
- Redis or equivalent caching technologies
- Familiarity with portal integration and UI endpoint dependencies
- Experience working with CI/CD pipelines (Node-based builds)
- Understanding of:
- Unit, functional, and regression testing
- Dependency scanning and CVE remediation
- Comfortable working in controlled enterprise environments with strict governance
Desirable Skills
- Prior experience in platform or runtime upgrades (Node.js, Java, etc.)
- Exposure to AI-assisted code refactoring or migration tools (human-in-the-loop model)
- Experience in telecom, large-scale enterprise platforms, or regulated environments
- Familiarity with observability tools (logs, metrics, dashboards)
Experience: 8-10 Years .
