Advertising at our client is a fast-growing multi-billion dollar business that spans across desktop, mobile and connected devices; encompasses ads on our clients portal and a vast network of hundreds of thousands of third party publishers; and extends across US, EU and an increasing number of international geographies.The Supply Quality organization in Bangalore has the charter to solve optimization problems for ad programs to ensure high-quality ad-impressions. We develop advanced algorithms and systems to optimize performance for our advertisers and publishers. We are focused on solving a wide variety of problems in computational advertising like traffic quality prediction (robot and fraud detection), Security forensics and research, Viewability prediction, Brand Safety and experimentation. Our team includes experts in the areas of distributed computing, machine learning, statistics, optimization, text mining, information theory and big data systems.

The Supply Quality infrastructure(SQI) team builds large-scale real-time transactional solutions, batch and stream processing systems, internet scale crawling solutions and storage infrastructure. We process bid requests in the orders of tens of billions per day with our real-time, batch and stream processing systems. To handle data at this scale, we use cutting-edge open source technologies like Hadoop, Spark, Redis etc.. We are not tied to one technology. Instead, we use what is best suited for the purpose. All of our systems tend to be loosely coupled, communicating using synchronous and asynchronous messaging, leading to a classic distributed processing architecture. All our systems need to also implement complex machine learning and optimization algorithms at scale. 

We are looking for a talented Engineering Manager to lead a new big-data engineering initiative within SQI. The team will own building highly available, efficient and low latency internet scale infrastructure including web-scale crawler, contextual processing and classification systems that will be used across multiple advertising use cases.

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

  • 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

Engineering Manager – Backend 

Location: Flexible / Hybrid (Mon–Fri)

Website: https://www.solarsquare.in

About the Role

SolarSquare is building the infrastructure for India's clean energy transition. We're looking for an Engineering Manager who doesn't just run a team — someone who builds one from the ground up, makes consequential technical bets, and treats engineering outcomes as business outcomes.

You'll own the technical strategy and delivery for our full-stack platform, lead a growing team of SDE1–SDE3 engineers, and work directly with product, design, and business to shape what we build and how fast we build it. This is a role for someone who has operated in resource-constrained environments, shipped systems that held up under pressure, and left every team they've led measurably better than they found it.

If you've only ever executed someone else's roadmap, this isn't the right fit. If you've ever built something from scratch and felt personally responsible for whether it worked.

What You'll Own

Team & Culture

  • Build, hire, and develop a high-performing full-stack engineering team  including setting the bar for what "high-performing" means at SolarSquare
  • Create genuine career growth paths for engineers.
  • Maintain team health, retention, and motivation through periods of rapid change and ambiguity

Technical Strategy

  • Define and drive the architectural roadmap
  • Make and own technical bets: when to invest in platform, when to ship fast, when to pay down debt
  • Establish observability, reliability, and security standards before they become production fires

Delivery

  • Translate business goals into engineering priorities  and push back when the translation is wrong
  • Set clear goals, metrics, and delivery expectations; hold yourself and the team accountable to them
  • Manage trade-offs between short-term product velocity and long-term engineering health


Cross-Functional Influence

  • Partner with Product, Design, and Business stakeholders  and influence decisions upstream.
  • Communicate technical risk, cost, and complexity clearly to non-technical leadership

What We're Looking For

  • 7–10 years of engineering experience, with at least 3 years leading teams.
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems design: idempotency, retries, DLQs, circuit breakers, eventual consistency, you've had to debug these in production.
  • Proven experience with event-driven architecture and Kafka including schema design, consumer group management, and failure recovery patterns.
  • Comfort with relational (PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB, Redis, ) databases  including query optimisation and schema design decisions at scale.
  • You've designed or operated systems handling meaningful traffic  ideally 10K+ RPS. significant daily transaction volumes, or consumer-scale user bases (1M+ users)
  • You understand what 99.99% uptime actually costs to maintain and you've made the infrastructure and on-call decisions to back it.
  • You've written or enforced SLOs, SLAs, and incident management processes.
  • You've done a postmortem that changed something real about how the team operates.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure beyond just deploying services, cost optimisation, right-sizing, architecture decisions that meaningfully reduced spend
  • Working knowledge of containerisation (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes) enough to unblock your team.
  • CI/CD pipeline ownership  you've built or significantly improved a pipeline.
  • Experience with observability tooling: Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ELK, or equivalent  and more importantly, a philosophy about what to instrument and why
  • You've made the call between monolith and microservices  and you can defend it with context.
  • You've managed technical debt consciously: triaged it, prioritised it, and made the case to stakeholders for when to pay it down
  • You've navigated a hard conversation with a product or business stakeholder  and changed the outcome
  • Your engineers grow under you. You can point to people you've promoted, coached, or unblocked
  • You know how to build alignment across functions where incentives don't naturally align
  • You have clear examples of decisions you made under ambiguity  and you can articulate the trade-offs you weighed
  • You've identified a systemic problem and fixed it without being asked
