What will be your key responsibilities?

Although it’s an engineering role, you will have significant involvement in product, hiring and business as well. You may expect following key responsibilities:


Engineering: You’ll need to write code – a lot of code. At the end of the day, your most important responsibility is to get your company’s product to market and maximize the number of product experiments that can be run. You’ll make key architectural decisions that will be pillars of the engineering organization for years to come. At the same time, you’ll have to make serious trade-offs to balance speed of execution with quality.


Product: As a founding engineer, you’ll also have a significant amount of ownership over the product direction. You should expect to spend time talking to customers, teasing out use cases, and making prioritization decisions regarding both the short- and long-term roadmap. In many cases, you will be building features in the absence of any formal product requirement document.


Support: You should also expect to spend a fair amount of time in the trenches supporting customers. You’ll probably find yourself engaging with customers in shared Slack channels, WhatsApp groups etc.


Hiring: As a founding engineer, you will spend a ton of time sourcing, interviewing, and closing early team members. 


Business: Finally, you’ll gain exposure to all other aspects of the business – from fundraising, to sales, and beyond. Although you probably won’t be closing deals or making pitch decks, you will certainly be expected to sell your product and pitch the company’s vision.



How do you know you are right fit for the role?

    • You have at least 2-4 years of experience. You are proficient with most of the following languages/frameworks:
      • NodeJS
      • AWS
      • Databases (both SQL and NoSQL)
    • You crave ownership. If you often find yourself raising your hand to own things end-to-end, you will likely really enjoy the ownership afforded to you as a founding engineer.
    • You’re okay with ambiguity. You won’t get product requirement documents or designs for everything you’re expected to build. A stellar founding engineer will know when to ask for clarity and when to make educated assumptions. If you tend to gravitate towards more loosely scoped projects, that’s a good indicator that you’ll do well in this type of role.
    • You’re multidisciplinary. A typical day might include anything from several hours of coding, to a few customer conversations, to a technical brainstorm or architecture discussion, to an interview or two. 
  • You operate at light speed. A great founding engineer should welcome this challenge and thrive under the pressure of intense deadlines. 

What will be the hiring process?

  • 2 round of technical interviews
  • 2 round of behavioural interview

What will be your compensation?

    • Fixed: INR 20L-30L
    • Bonus: 10-30% of Fixed depending upon performance.
  • Equity: 0.1%-0.2%

About Medflix - empowering healthcare professionals for better care

Medflix (www.medflix.app/app) is a platform where healthcare professionals (doctors, medical students and more) stay updated through live talks, Q&As, support material and more. Through the platform we believe that these professionals can be empowered to deliver better care to patients (like our families) throughout the globe.

In its current (and evolving) form, it is a live learning and engagement platform seeing tremendous week-on-week growth through stellar speakers and a very active early community. The product is in the growth stages and you will be playing a key role in steering the tech to create a scalable and lovable product experience.

We are backed by startup, VC and PE veterans including Kunal Shah (CEO, Cred), Raghunandan G (Zolve, ex-TFS), Avnish Mehra (Everstone) and more.

Medflix is a platform by PlexusMD (www.plexusmd.com/app), a network trusted and loved (4.4 stars on Playstore and 4.4 on Appstore) by more than 3 lakh doctors in India and working closely with leading healthcare providers and companies like AIIMS, Jaslok, Hinduja, Apollo, HCG, Elsevier, Association of Physicians of India, Indian Association of Cardio-thoracic surgeons, Society of Nuclear Medicine, Govt of Gujarat (HFW Dept), Govt of Haryana (SIFHW), McKinsey and company, Takeda, Mankind and others.


About the Role

Tech stack (expertise in all is not required, experience in some will be sufficient):

  • React / Next.js (required, at least 1 year of experience)
  • Express.js (required, at least 1 year of experience)
  • Familiarity with cloud services (gcp / azure / aws)
  • PostgreSQL (or expertise in any relational database)
  • Redis
  • Docker/Kubernetes deployment (good to have)

For this role we are looking for engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset, an understanding of how startups operate and who like to get their hands dirty when unknown things come their way. You will work closely with the product team to prioritise and ship features with a predictable cadence.

As this role is full-stack, you need to have a good understanding of frontend design and be obsessed with responsiveness and pixel-perfect behaviour. On the backend side, an OCD for efficiency and optimisation is a required personality trait.

Demonstrated history of solving hard problems (frontend/backend or both) is a great-to- have.


Benefits and growth

While we ensure competitive compensation (plus ESOP options for deserving candidates), at Medflix, you will also have a strong say in how final solutions look. You will get the opportunity to learn to steer an accelerating rocket ship.

College credentials, background or years of experience are no bar for growth inside the company for enthusiasts who believe in our mission and demonstrate that passion to create a product that healthcare workers love.

ABOUT

The Persona Labs is building a new kind of social platform focused on something most social products do not explicitly optimize for: helping people become real friends.


We want to help people discover interesting people around them, find meaningful common ground, start low-pressure interactions, continue promising conversations, create shared experiences, and ultimately build real-life friendships.


DISCOVER → CURIOSITY → COMPATIBILITY → INTERACTION → UNDERSTAND → IRL EXPERIENCE → FRIENDSHIP


THE AI LAYER

Alongside the platform, we are building a proactive personal companion that learns about the user and helps them navigate this journey through personalized recommendations, suggestions, reminders and experiences.


THE OPPORTUNITY

We are looking for a Founding Product Engineer to help build the platform from the ground up. This is a 0→1 product engineering role where you work directly with the founder and engineering team to turn ambiguous product problems into working software.


You will be expected to:

Understand the problem → explore solutions → make trade-offs → design → build → ship → measure → improve.


WHAT YOU WILL BUILD & OWN


MOBILE

Onboarding, profiles, discovery, interactions, messaging, activities, and companion experiences.


SOCIAL SYSTEMS

Relationships, social graph, compatibility, and interaction flows.


BACKEND

APIs, services, authentication, notifications, and background processes.


DATA

PostgreSQL models, user/activity data, analytics, and behavioural signals.


REAL-TIME

Messaging, live interactions, notifications, and event-driven workflows.


AI-ENABLED

Recommendations, personalization, and companion-powered experiences.


INFRASTRUCTURE

Cloud deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, reliability, and cost management.


WHAT YOUR DAY-TO-DAY LOOKS LIKE

• Build and ship mobile and full-stack product features end-to-end.

• Design APIs, database models, and backend services for a social product.

• Translate ambiguous product problems into simple, reliable technical solutions.

• Make architecture and engineering trade-offs for performance, scalability, security, and cost.

• Work closely with the founder, product/design team, and Companion Intelligence engineer.

• Prototype quickly, test assumptions, and iterate based on user behaviour and product feedback.

• Own features from problem → architecture → implementation → deployment → improvement.

• Help establish engineering practices around testing, monitoring, security, and reliability.


WHO SHOULD APPLY

• Experience: 0–4 years, including exceptional fresh graduates. Strong 1–3 year engineers and experienced 3–4 year product builders are welcome.

• Fundamentals: Strong CS/software engineering fundamentals.

• Evidence of Building: We value what you have built more than the number of years on your résumé. Shipped apps, strong side projects, hackathons, internships, open source, or startup work are highly valued.

• Mindset: High ownership, curiosity, strong fundamentals, clear communication, learning velocity, and the ability to work through ambiguity.


WHAT WE LOOK FOR

MOBILE CAPABILITY

Can you build and ship a polished mobile experience?


ENGINEERING DEPTH

Do you understand why a system works, not just how to make it run?


PRODUCT JUDGMENT

Can you determine what should be built when the problem is ambiguous?


ARCHITECTURE / SYSTEMS

Can you reason across APIs, databases, services, real-time systems, scale, and cost?


SPEED OF EXECUTION

Can you move from idea → prototype → production quickly without compromising fundamentals?


AI FAMILIARITY

Do you understand how modern AI can become a useful, reliable product capability?


BUILD WITH US

You will join at a stage where many answers do not exist yet. You will not simply implement someone else’s architecture, you will help decide what the architecture and product should become.


CAREERS:

Apply with your resume, GitHub, portfolio or shipped work.

  • 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
