Core Implementation
The system is orchestrated using Docker and Docker Compose to ensure a consistent, reproducible environment for both the application and its database.
Backend Stack: Built using Node.js and Express.js.
Infrastructure: Features a fully containerized setup where the API and MongoDB instances are managed as isolated services.
Architecture: Follows a strict separation of concerns with a directory structure organized into controllers, middleware, models, and routes.
Functional Goals
The environment is configured for active development, utilizing Nodemon for real-time updates and Postman for API testing. This setup reflects a commitment to building scalable, "ledger-accurate" backends that can be easily transitioned from local development to self-hosted Linux VPS environments.

There247 is building an AI-powered communications platform that helps service businesses capture missed customer enquiries. Our MVP answers inbound calls when a business is unavailable, captures the customer’s details, creates a clear summary, and sends the business an actionable SMS.
We’re looking for a practical backend developer to support our lead developer across the MVP build. You’ll work on Node.js/TypeScript APIs, Twilio call handling, webhooks, Pipedrive integration, SMS/email notifications, database models, event logging, testing, and AWS deployment support.
This is a fast-moving startup role. We need someone who can work from a detailed specification, build reliable backend features quickly, communicate clearly, and help us deliver a commercially usable MVP.
