We are looking for a Senior Backend Platform Developer to build modern services for Navan’s contact center systems. This is a software engineering role first: where you will design APIs, serverless services, data flows, observability tooling, and AI-enabled workflows that support our customer and agent experience. The contact center is the domain, but the core need is strong development capability. The right person is comfortable building production systems, integrating complex platforms, and using AI-assisted engineering tools to move quickly without sacrificing quality. What You'll Do: Production-grade Node.js services on AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and event-driven serverless patterns. Secure APIs and integrations across internal systems, customer data, and third-party platforms. Technical patterns, implementation standards, and reusable services for the broader contact center systems roadmap. Observability pipelines using OpenSearch, CloudWatch, Kibana, Snowflake, and structured logging. Automation and AI-enabled workflows that improve routing, agent support, troubleshooting, and operational visibility. Migration tooling and services that help move legacy telephony and contact center workflows onto modern platforms, with enough design discipline to support future scale. What We're Looking For 5+ years of backend software engineering experience, ideally with Node.js or TypeScript. Strong API design, system architecture, integration, debugging, and asynchronous systems experience. Hands-on experience with AWS Lambda or similar cloud/serverless architecture. Experience with logging, monitoring, search, data pipelines, or production observability. Practical use of AI coding assistants for development, testing, refactoring, and troubleshooting. Fluency with GitHub workflows, including pull requests, code review, branching, and CI/CD collaboration. Senior-level judgment to turn ambiguous operational problems into clean, maintainable technical solutions. Helpful Domain Experience Experience in contact center, telephony, customer support, or workflow automation environments. Exposure to platforms such as Genesys Cloud, Twilio, Five9, NICE, Zoom Contact Center, or Avaya. Familiarity with routing, queues, IVR, SIP, phone number management, call metadata, or agent-assist workflows. Experience with Snowflake SQL, Terraform, CloudFormation, AWS SAM, or related infrastructure tooling. This senior role will help Navan modernize the technical foundation behind our contact center environment. The work includes legacy platform migration, improved reliability and observability, AI-enabled automation, and new services that make our customer and agent experiences faster, smarter, and easier to operate. The posted pay range represents the anticipated low and high end of the compensation for this position and is subject to change based on business need. To determine a successful candidate’s starting pay, we carefully consider a variety of factors, including primary work location, an evaluation of the candidate’s skills and experience, market demands, and internal parity. For roles with on-target-earnings (OTE), the pay range includes both base salary and target incentive compensation. Target incentive compensation for some roles may include a ramping draw period. Compensation is higher for those who exceed targets. Candidates may receive more information from the recruiter. Pay Range $118,800 — $264,000 USD Navan uses AI-assisted Automated Employment Decision Tool (Metaview) to assist with evaluating resumes against job qualifications for this role. All final decisions are made by human recruiters and hiring managers. Human oversight: Metaview does not automatically reject candidates or make final hiring decisions.

Here's where they are and how to stand out in your next interview.

That number includes positions in India (9,577), Poland (3,429), the United States (1,753), Singapore (787), and Brazil (779). If you're looking to move or work remotely, check which countries match your goals — then filter WorkMundi by location to see what's actually hiring near you.

Most developer ads you'll see are written in English: 18,397 of the 24,795. That doesn't tell you whether the job itself requires you to speak English or work in English daily, so read each posting carefully. Don't assume the language of the ad matches the language of the team.

The employers posting the most developer roles are Link Group (369 jobs), Upvanta (257), jobgether (226), and OfferZen (212). If you're applying to any of these, research their hiring patterns. They move fast and post often, which means they're either scaling hard or replacing people who didn't fit.

In your interview, expect this: 'Walk me through the last time you had to debug something that took you more than an hour. What was it, what did you try first, and what would you do differently?' Hiring managers ask this to see if you think systematically or just try random fixes. Have a real example ready with specifics.
