Choose Postgres Queue Technology
For running queues on Postgres with Node.js backend(s), I highly recommend https://github.com/timgit/pg-boss. I'm sure it has it scale limits. But if you're one of the 90% of the apps that never needs any kind of scale that a modern server can't easily handle then it's fantastic. You get transactional queueing of jobs, and it automatically handles syncing across multiple job processing servers using Postgres locks.

You don't need distributed systems.
You can use the simplest option than implement a new service. Keep in mind that every running system can be a job scheduler, you can just use nodejs worker threads, Redis, or even your DB as a job scheduler, check PGBoss for example.

Launch HN: Convoy (YC W22) – Open-source cloud-native webhooks service
Both! For context, we're currently using https://github.com/timgit/pg-boss as a task queue on top of postgres and it works great. No need to complicate things with Redis. I believe it's quite straightforward to implement a task queue on top of postgres using the SKIP LOCKED functionality.
