Skill guide

What to know about GraphQL

GraphQL is a query language and runtime for APIs, originally developed at Facebook, that lets clients request exactly the data they need through a typed schema. Teams use it to serve web and mobile apps from one flexible API, or to unify many services behind a federated gateway. A good GraphQL engineer designs schemas around client needs, prevents N+1 problems with DataLoader, handles pagination, errors and authorization carefully, and limits query complexity. Ask how they evolve a schema without breaking clients and when plain REST would be the simpler choice.

Vetting

How we vet GraphQL engineers

Each GraphQL engineer goes through a profile review of their CV, code and past systems, followed by a communication check to confirm they can discuss design decisions clearly with your team. A senior engineer then runs the technical interview: live coding plus a system design scenario covering API design, data modeling, concurrency, error handling, testing and how the candidate would scale or debug a service under load. Only the top 1.5% of applicants are accepted, so the profiles you see have already cleared that bar.

Typical engagements

Design and build new APIs and services for a product launch, working inside your repositories and review process
Break a slow or fragile part of a monolith into a well-tested service
Pay down back-end debt: upgrade frameworks, add test coverage, fix slow queries and improve observability
