Gordian is India's only secure hyperlocal delivery company. We use IoT-enabled portable lockers which unlock only upon entering an OTP on it. The OTPs are sent to the sender and receiver only, and thus, no one can access your package in transit! Watch this quick video to see how it works: https://youtu.be/aNbTEO34Tfw

This role is strictly for those geeks who love building novel products. Gordian is an early-stage startup that is changing the way deliveries happen. We are a lean team and are growing considerably. This will be a great opportunity for ambitious individuals who would like to grow in a scaling startup.

Before you read the description below, know this: if you do not have all the technical skills required, but are willing to do whatever it takes to learn and build, you can still apply!

At Gordian, you will be:

1. Designing, implementing, and debugging embedded software solutions for various CISC and RISC based systems (MC60, STM).
2. Participating in embedded design projects from concept to production.
3. Developing utilities, using C/C++, scripting in support of the embedded system development.
4. Understanding businesses requirements and translating them into technical documentation.
5. Writing code and testing various functions on the boards.

Technically, you must have:

• Strong programming fundamentals and demonstrable experience through work or projects in any programming language
• At least 1 year of work experience (internship experience included) in the industry or on a project with multiple members
• A good understanding of web development fundamentals including JSON, REST, HTTP, client/ server, web servers, proxies, reverse proxies, etc.
• A good understanding of Javascript. Alternatively, experience with other languages/ frameworks that would enable quick learning of Javascript will suffice

On a personal level, you MUST have:

• A keen interest in working at startups, building new tech, and an ability to "figure it out".
• Ability to own your work. It is very important to us that you take complete responsibility of your projects and contribute output that you and the team are proud of.
• Ability to communicate clearly and concisely.

You will be of course be guided on your work by one of our highly-skilled mentors.

You must also be based out of Bangalore or willing to relocate.
