The project: from scattered Lambdas to clean microservices
Our client runs a large number of AWS Lambda functions, very likely built with the Serverless Framework. Your mission is not just to “lift & shift”, but to design a more coherent architecture and get it running on AWS Fargate.
- Deep code reading: understand existing business logic across Lambda functions.
- Logical consolidation: find patterns and group behavior into well-scoped services.
- Containerization & deployment: Dockerize services and deploy them to Fargate with good practices.
Stack overview
Core
- Node.js (TS/JS)
- AWS Lambda
- API Gateway / events
Target
- Docker
- AWS Fargate / ECS
- Microservices
This is a good fit if…
- Reading and refactoring other people’s code doesn’t scare you.
- You care about structure, not just “making it work”.
- You like shipping real impact in a fixed timeframe.
Your role as Senior Node.js Contractor
You’ll work hand in hand with the Team Lead (strong AWS background) and a small senior team. Your main responsibility: turn a big Lambda codebase into a set of clear, maintainable services.
- Analyze Lambda handlers, event flows, and integrations.
- Propose microservice boundaries aligned with domain logic.
- Refactor Node.js code into clean modules & services.
- Containerize and help integrate with CI/CD and Fargate.
Requirements
Must-haves
- Strong experience with Node.js in production.
- Solid async patterns, error handling, and clean code.
- Experience working with existing / legacy codebases.
- Comfortable with REST APIs and integrations.
- English level C1 (spoken & written).
- Available for a 3-month, full-time contractor role.
Nice to have
- AWS Lambda & Serverless Framework experience.
- AWS Fargate / ECS or similar container orchestration.
- Docker best practices (image size, security, etc.).
- Experience designing microservice architectures.
- Logging, monitoring, and observability in distributed systems.
