📍 Noida | 🕐 Full-Time | 🧭 Experience: 2–3 Years

The Mission

We aren't building traditional backend systems — we're powering the infrastructure behind Agentic Intelligence. TestMu AI is building the world's first AI-native platform where backend systems don't just serve requests, they enable autonomous decision-making, execution, and scale.

The name "TestMu" comes from our community conference. Our users and team aren't an audience — they're the heartbeat of what we build. We believe AI augments human potential. It doesn't replace it.

You'll be building the core backend systems that power AI-driven workflows — ensuring high performance, scalability, and reliability at every layer.

The Pillars of Impact

🚀 1. Core Backend & System Architecture (50%)

• Build and scale high-performance backend services and APIs
• Design efficient database schemas, query optimization, and data flows
