A SaaS startup founded in April 2020.


What’s the opportunity?

Are you a backend developer looking to fast-track your learning and growth? Have you looked at world-class products like Asana, Notion, or Airtable, and felt “I wish I were part of the early team that built these products”?

We’re a team that has previously built and rolled out globally successful SaaS products used by tens of thousands of customers.

We’re laser-focused on delivering a world-class product again, and looking for an ambitious backend engineer to join our existing team of 9 engineers.


If it excites you to think of a fast-paced start-up environment, building something big from scratch, breaking down new problems, creating new APIs, working on performance issues, getting hands-on with DevOps initiatives, and showcasing demos of your work every Friday with a happy and passionate team, then this is the right opportunity for you.


Some of the tech problems you get to work on as a backend engineer would be to build the backend for a modern spreadsheet experience from scratch, work on infra as code, write robust code that is fault-tolerant, work on performant code that adheres to SLOs set by the organization. 


About you:

● 3- 5 years of experience

● Expertise in the following areas ○ Java ○ HTTP Protocol

● You’ve heard of or worked with some of the following tech stacks/products

○ Spring

○ PostgreSQL

○ Redis ○ Docker

○ Message brokers

○ GitHub


● These non-functional areas are familiar to you

○ Performance

○ Debugging

○ Log management


Nice to have:

● Familiarity with AWS 


What’s in it for you?

● Great opportunity: We genuinely care about everyone we hire. You’ll learn new things and grow no matter how experienced you are; you will be working with founders who have more than three decades of collective experience in building significant B2B SaaS startups.

● Great team: Work with a world-class, high-velocity team that truly embodies the values of empathy, curiosity, and customer-centricity. Check out the MTT(Meet The Team) videos on our LinkedIn.

● Great culture: An open, fun, and exciting startup culture that empowers its people to champion big problems with the freedom to think and innovate.

● Growth: You could easily and quickly transition into other roles you might like.

● Impact: You get to be part of a global, passionate team in a fast-paced and growth-oriented environment. The team has a work philosophy of being high on ambition, ownership, and a bias for action.

● Monetary rewards and benefits: Competitive stipend, flexible leave policy, and more
