The esm/cjs situation...
What worked for me is using the path alias' fork for ts-node. Unfortunately it's a few versions behind, so it doesn't support some things (e.g. type assertions), but it works for general use cases.

Finally, a guide for Node.js and TypeScript and ESM that works
Love this project, used it quite a bit. However I always opt for using esno[1] instead, merely because of the name; having two tools share the same name throws me off.

The esm/cjs situation...
Next, I thought well nx is not gonna work for now, so let's keep looking for an alternative to ts-node. Oh look, there is this https://github.com/esbuild-kit/tsx. It natively understands path aliases, no need for any flags. Oh wait...it doesn't do any type checking like ts-node. WHAT? why would anyone execute typescript without type checks during development?.

PSA: Speed up your ts-node command with a simple --swc flag
