Job Title : Backend Engineer (AI-First | FinTech/Crypto)
Experience : 3 to 6 Years
Location : Gurugram (Sector 49)
Working Hours : 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Work Mode : On-site | 6 Days Working
Employment Type : Full-time
Role Overview :
This is not a typical ticket-based engineering role. You will take end-to-end ownership of systems—designing architecture, building scalable solutions, and solving real-world performance challenges.
We operate in an AI-first engineering environment, leveraging advanced tools and automation workflows to build high-performance distributed systems.
Mandatory Skills :
Java/Spring Boot or Node.js, System Design (HLD/LLD), Distributed Systems, Event-Driven Architecture (Kafka/RabbitMQ), Low-Latency APIs, PostgreSQL/MongoDB, CI/CD, Docker/Kubernetes, AI-assisted development (Copilot/Cursor/Claude)
Key Responsibilities :
- Design and build scalable backend systems (Java/Spring Boot, Node.js, or similar).
- Architect and implement event-driven systems (Kafka, RabbitMQ, pub/sub).
- Develop secure and reliable financial systems with strong data integrity.
- Solve scalability and performance challenges in fintech/crypto environments.
- Own features end-to-end: design → development → deployment → monitoring.
- Work with real-time data pipelines (WebSockets, streaming, event sourcing).
- Define service contracts and optimize system architecture.
AI-First Engineering (Must-Have Mindset) :
You will :
- Use tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude in daily development
- Follow spec-driven development using structured instructions
- Review, validate, and ship AI-generated code with strong engineering judgment
Core Requirements :
- 3+ years of backend development experience.
- Strong expertise in Java (Spring Boot) or Node.js.
- Solid understanding of System Design (HLD/LLD, Distributed Systems).
- Experience with event-driven architectures (Kafka, RabbitMQ, async pipelines).
- Hands-on experience building low-latency, high-throughput systems.
- Strong database knowledge (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.).
- Understanding of security, performance optimization, and reliability.
- Experience with CI/CD, Git, Docker, Kubernetes.
- Exposure to React / React Native is a plus.
Good to Have (Differentiators) :
- Experience in FinTech / Crypto / Web3 / Blockchain.
- Built systems for trading, payments, or real-time financial data.
- Experience with AI agents, automation pipelines, or agent-based systems.
- Exposure to parallel AI workflows (coding / testing / refactoring).
- Contributions to open source or technical blogs.
- Experience handling production-scale systems.
