It's 2017, but I would still not write a backend in JavaScript - nor would I rely on a NoSQL database for all but the simplest of applications (and then I would still use Postgres). I would also contend that MySQL (read: relational databases in general) and even Linux server management are within reach of most good developers.

And to add insult to injury, hire talentless hacks for cheap, calls them "developers" and lets them "develop" "apps" for platforms they should have no place at all touching.
