Mid Backend Software Engineer - FMIT Technologies S.L.

Location: Málaga, Andalucía (Hybrid) Type: Full-time

You don't need someone reviewing every line before it ships, you need the ownership, and a stack worth owning. That's this role.

About FMIT

Ready for a new challenge? Join FMIT, a leader in cutting-edge software solutions, as we expand our backend engineering team. Contribute directly to our success, work on systems that actually matter to our clients, and enjoy the flexibility of a hybrid work model at our headquarters in Málaga.

The Role

As a Mid Backend Software Engineer, you'll independently design, build, and optimize backend systems, not just implement tickets. You'll help shape scalable architecture, keep code quality high, and act as a technical reference point for junior engineers on the team. This is a role for someone who's past needing guardrails and ready to help set them for others.

What You'll Do

- Independently design, develop, and optimize backend solutions end to end.
- Design scalable backend systems with maintainability and performance in mind.
- Contribute to the development and improvement of CI/CD pipelines.
- Develop unit tests and automate workflows to keep code quality high.
- Act as a technical reference for junior engineers — guidance, not hand-holding.
- Document backend systems so the whole team can build on them, not just you.
- Collaborate cross-functionally to improve APIs and database systems.





What We're Looking For (Must-Have)

- Professional experience with JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python, implementing real business logic autonomously.
- Solid hands-on experience with Express, FastAPI, or Fastify, and designing scalable backend services.
- Strong PostgreSQL skills, schema design, query optimization, data integrity.
- Experience with Kafka or similar for asynchronous, service-to-service communication.
- Comfortable working across dev, staging, and production environments.
- You write clean, testable code, and you're just as comfortable reviewing someone else's.

Nice to Have

- Prior experience mentoring or supporting junior engineers.
- Exposure to cloud environments and deployment support.
- A track record of proposing system or process improvements, not just executing them.

What We Offer

- Competitive salary + monthly home office allowance.
- A Dream Team, skilled, dynamic colleagues in a genuinely versátil environment.
- Challenging projects that directly shape our clients' success and the company's growth.
- Private health insurance.
- Free English classes + annual learning & development budget.
- Flexible hybrid model.
- Your birthday off, plus Dec 24th and 31st.
- An office in Málaga with free drinks, organic fruit, snacks, and a proper break area.

Ready to own real systems, not just tickets? We'd love to hear from you.
