About the role

We are hiring a Principal Engineer to own the hardest technical problems in our product and see them through from first sketch to stable production. You will set technical direction, design systems that scale, and raise the engineering bar through your own work and the people around you. This is a hands-on leadership role: you write code, review designs, and ship.


What will you do?

You will own outcomes, not just tasks. Expect to spend your time on the following.

• Own projects end to end. Take an ambiguous problem, shape the requirements, design the solution, break down the work, deliver it to production, and stay accountable for how it runs afterwards.

• Lead system design. Author and review architecture for services, data pipelines and integrations, with clear trade-offs on scale, latency, cost, consistency and reliability.

• Write and review critical code. Build the hardest components yourself, and set standards for code quality, testing and maintainability through code and design reviews.

• Own deployment and operations. Design CI/CD, infrastructure and release strategies. Drive observability, on-call readiness, incident response and post-incident learning.

• Solve hard problems. Debug production issues across the stack, and find root causes in performance, concurrency, data and scaling problems.

• Mentor and multiply. Coach senior and junior engineers, grow future tech leads, and make the whole team faster and more confident.

• Partner across functions. Work with product, design, data and business teams to turn goals into technical plans, and to say no or reshape scope when needed.

• Shape technical strategy. Guide build-versus-buy decisions, manage tech debt, evaluate new technologies, and contribute to the engineering roadmap.

• Raise the bar. Help define engineering practices, hiring standards and culture, and take part in interviewing.


What are we looking for?

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.


Core engineering

• 10+ years of professional software engineering, with a track record of shipping and running production systems.

• Strong computer science fundamentals: data structures, algorithms and complexity, operating systems, networking, databases and concurrency.

• Fluency in at least one major backend language (for example Python, Go, Java, or Node.js/ TypeScript) and the ability to pick up others quickly.

• Deep knowledge of relational and NoSQL data stores: schema design, indexing, transactions, query tuning and replication.


System design and problem solving

• Proven ability to design distributed systems that are scalable, fault tolerant and cost aware, and to explain the trade-offs clearly.

• Experience with APIs, event-driven and asynchronous architectures, queues, caching and service-to-service communication.

• A structured approach to ambiguous problems: break them down, test assumptions, decide with incomplete data, and measure results.

• Strong debugging instincts, including performance profiling and production troubleshooting.


Delivery and operations

• Have led at least two significant projects from inception to production, including planning, milestones, risk management and launch.

• Hands-on experience with deployment: CI/CD pipelines, containers (Docker, Kubernetes), a major cloud (AWS, GCP or Azure), and infrastructure as code.

• Practical experience with monitoring, logging, alerting, SLOs and incident management.

• Habit of writing tests and automation, and of leaving systems more reliable than you found them.


Leadership and communication

• Experience leading engineers without formal authority, through influence, mentoring and clear technical writing.

• Excellent written and verbal communication: design docs, RFCs and concise updates to non-technical stakeholders.

• Ownership mindset, sound judgment on priorities, and comfort working in a fast-moving environment.


Nice to have

• Experience in fintech, lending or another regulated, data-heavy domain.

• Exposure to AI/ML or LLM-based systems in production: model serving, evaluation, retrieval, and cost and latency management.

• Deep experience with data engineering: streaming, batch pipelines, warehouses or search systems.

• Security and compliance awareness: authentication, encryption, audit trails, secure SDLC.

• Experience with multi-tenant SaaS, high-throughput systems or zero downtime migrations.

• Open-source contributions, conference talks, or technical writing.

• Experience scaling an engineering team or helping set up hiring and onboarding practices.

• Write production code and review code written by others.

• Turn business requirements into clear technical plans and releases.

• Choose practical architecture, tools, and vendors that fit the company's needs.

• Set working standards for testing, deployment, monitoring, backups, and access control.

• Protect customer and company data through practical security controls.

• Investigate production issues and make sure the same problems do not repeat.

• Help hire and guide a small engineering team as the company grows.


What we are looking for


• 3–5 years of professional software-engineering experience.

• Experience building and running production systems.

• Strong backend skills, including APIs, databases, and cloud services.

• Enough frontend knowledge to work across a product when needed.

• Good judgment about system design, security, reliability, and cost.

• The ability to explain technical choices in simple language.

• Comfort working independently and taking full ownership of delivery.


Experience in lending, housing finance, fintech, or another regulated industry is useful, but not required. Experience leading engineers or working directly with founders and business leaders is also useful.


How to apply


Please share your CV or LinkedIn profile and two short examples of production systems you have owned. This is a confidential search. More information about the company will be shared with shortlisted candidates during the interview process.

  • Lead a team of 5-6 engineers, providing technical direction, reviewing code, ensuring timely delivery and nurturing their career path.
  • Remain hands-on with development and debugging rather than functioning solely as a people manager.
  • Establish engineering standards, development practices, testing protocols, and release processes.
  • Make pragmatic technology decisions that balance long-term scalability with ad-hoc  business requirements.

2. Enterprise Implementations & Client Delivery

  • Own the technical execution of our implementations with enterprise clients across the globe.
  • Drive client-specific configurations, integrations, customizations, deployments, and production rollouts.
  • Work closely with the Founder, Customer Success team, Product team, and other key stakeholders to translate client requirements into robust technical outcomes.
  • Troubleshoot complex production issues, manage technical dependencies within team, and ensure implementation timelines and quality standards are met.
  • Build reusable frameworks and integration capabilities that reduce implementation time and minimize repetitive custom development.

3. AI Engineering & Emerging Technologies

  • Evaluate and implement AI capabilities that solve real enterprise problems and enhance product functionality.
  • Experience integrating Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and AI agents into enterprise applications will be a strong advantage.
  • Understand the practical considerations of deploying AI in production, including data security, reliability, latency, cost, and evaluation.
  • Encourage responsible adoption of AI coding tools such as Claude Code while ensuring engineers retain strong fundamentals, understand the code they ship, and take ownership of its quality.

4. Team & Execution Management

  • Take ownership of engineering priorities, sprint execution, resource allocation, and delivery commitments.
  • Build a culture of accountability, ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
  • Ensure the team can independently diagnose and resolve technical problems rather than relying excessively on external tools or generated code.
  • Collaborate with leadership to align engineering priorities with customer commitments, product roadmaps, and business objectives.

 

Required Technical Skills:

  • Strong hands-on experience with Node.js, Express.js, React, MySQL, Python, and AWS.
  • Solid understanding of backend architecture, REST APIs, database design, system integrations, and cloud-based deployments.
  • Experience building, maintaining, and scaling production-grade mobile and web applications.
  • Strong debugging, code review, system design, and performance optimization skills.
  • Familiarity with software development lifecycle practices, version control, automated testing, CI/CD, and production monitoring.
  • Ability to make independent technical decisions and take ownership of issues from identification through resolution.

 

Experience & Qualifications:

  • 8–10 years of relevant software engineering experience, with demonstrated progression into technical leadership.
  • Prior experience leading a team of junior and mid-level engineers.
  • Experience in a B2B SaaS company or an enterprise technology environment is strongly preferred.
  • Experience managing enterprise client implementations, integrations, and production deployments.
  • B.Tech / B.E. in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related engineering discipline, preferably from a Tier-1 engineering college.

 

What We Are Looking For:

We are looking for a seasoned engineering professional who has experience handling multiple clients, varied integration requirements, competing priorities, and production issues.

You must be flexible to coordinate across time zones and work outside standard business hours when client implementations or critical releases require it.

This role offers the opportunity to work closely with the Founder, influence the product and architecture decisions, lead a compact engineering team, and directly shape how our technology scales across enterprise customers in not just domestic but international markets.

About the company

The client is the home base for hardware engineers. They give the teams building robots, rockets, medical devices, and the next generation of physical products a single place to move fast without breaking things, turning CAD chaos into a system of record engineers actually love to work in. We're profitable, post-Series A, and growing our Hyderabad engineering team.


About the role

We're looking for a tech lead to set the technical direction for a growing team and raise the bar for everyone around them. This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll still write production code, but your largest impact comes through architecture, mentorship, and the standards you instill. You own outcomes for a team, not just your own commits. 


What you'll do

  • Lead the technical direction of a team building across our TypeScript/React + Node.js + AWS stack
  • Drive architecture decisions, document tradeoffs, and align the team on a clear technical path Mentor engineers through code review, pairing, and guidance, growing them toward strong production ownership
  • Set and uphold standards for code quality, testing, and operational rigor
  • Stay hands-on: write production code on the highest-leverage and hardest problems
  • Partner with product and leadership to scope work, manage technical risk, and deliver predictably
  • Be accountable for the reliability and maturity of the systems your team owns in production


What we're looking for

  • Demonstrated technical leadership: you've set direction for a team and elevated those around you
  • Strong full-stack proficiency in TypeScript, React, and Node.js, plus solid AWS depth
  • A track record of shipping to production and owning systems in operation, and of holding a team to that same standard
  • Strong architectural judgment: you decompose ambiguous problems, weigh tradeoffs, and make decisions others can build on
  • Excellent communication: you keep your team aligned and stakeholders informed, and you surface risk early
  • Comfort leading in a fast-paced, high-ownership early-stage environment 


Why choose us?

  • The teams building advanced hardware and the robots, machines, and devices shaping the future run
  • Direct access to founders; you'll help shape product and engineering direction, not just execute tickets
  • Fast feedback loops: what you build is in front of customers in days, not quarters
  • Profitable at Series A, so you get startup upside without the constant fundraising-survival anxiety
  • Competitive compensation and meaningful equity
  • Bi-yearly appraisal cycles
  • Upto 20% Bonus based on performance
  • Monthly Swiggy vouchers
  • Flexibility with work hours
