About Air Apps

At Air Apps, we believe in thinking bigger—and moving faster. We’re a family-founded company on a mission to create the world’s first AI-powered Personal & Entrepreneurial Resource Planner (PRP), and we need your passion and ambition to help us change how people plan, work, and live. Born in Lisbon, Portugal in 2018—and now with offices in both Lisbon and San Francisco—we’ve remained self-funded while reaching over 100 million downloads worldwide.

Our long-term focus drives us to challenge the status quo every day, pushing the boundaries of AI-driven solutions that truly make a difference. Here, you’ll be a creative force, shaping products that empower people across the globe.

Join us on this journey to redefine resource management—and change lives along the way.

The Role

As a Backend Software Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining the server-side components of our applications. You will collaborate closely with product managers, frontend developers, and other cross-functional teams to deliver robust and scalable backend services that power critical features and support rapid growth.

This is a fully onsite position, based at our office in Lisbon, where you will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams in person and contribute to a dynamic and fast-paced environment. We are open to support with relocation efforts.

Responsibilities

API & Service Architecture - Design and build RESTful or GraphQL APIs, microservices, and business logic using Node.js and TypeScript.
Database Design & Integration - Model data and manage queries using Supabase and PostgreSQL, including functions, row-level security, and real-time features.
Cloud Infrastructure - Deploy and manage services on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), particularly with Cloud Run, Cloud Functions, IAM, and Pub/Sub.
Code Quality & Testing - Write clean, testable code using unit, integration, and end-to-end testing frameworks (e.g., Jest). Contribute to code reviews and quality assurance practices.
Security & Reliability - Implement secure-by-default solutions for authentication, authorization, and data protection, following Clean Code and Clean Architecture principles.
Monitoring & Operations - Set up logging, monitoring, and alerting for backend services. Own incident response and uptime improvements.
Team Collaboration - Participate in architecture discussions, mentor team members, and document your decisions and systems for internal knowledge sharing.

Requirements

5+ years in backend engineering roles;
Proficiency in Node.js and TypeScript;
Strong experience with Supabase or equivalent PostgreSQL-based backend services;
Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (e.g., GCP, AWS, Azure), including deploying and managing services using serverless compute (e.g., Cloud Run, AWS Lambda, Azure Functions);
Solid knowledge of Clean Code and Clean Architecture practices;
Experience with API design (REST) and cloud-native application development;
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, testing tools, and Git workflows;
Strong grasp of security principles, data protection, and compliance best practices;
Effective communicator and proactive team contributor;

Apple hardware ecosystem for work.
Annual Bonus
Top-tier Health and Life Insurance for peace of mind.
Transportation Budget to support your commute needs.
