Are you looking for a super-challenging role designing backend systems that scale to 1000+ TPSs in one of India's fastest growing, profitable near-Unicorns with businesses spanning Lending, E-comm and UPI? Then this is the role for you.


Client Company is a profitable, rapidly scaling unicorn which is extremely well capitalized. Client has a very strong moat in the consumer lending space on the back of which it is entering into additional large markets such as E-comm and UPI.

Client company is now entering its next phase of growth from a fast-scaling startup to a robust, high-scale financial platform serving millions of users daily.

You'll design systems built for 10x100x growth, make the key technical trade-off calls, and stay deeply hands-on. Beyond building, you'll mentor engineers and work directly with founders and product teams to translate business goals into scalable, reliable systems.


This role is an opportunity to:

  • Shape the next-generation architecture for a high-throughput fintech system
  • Build systems designed to scale 10x100x from current volumes
  • Solve real-world problems across performance, reliability, and financial-grade security


Responsibilities

  • Design and evolve the platform architecture to support 10x100x growth
  • Own systems end-to-end from the first design decision to production impact
  • Lead system design discussions and set the long-term technical direction for the platform
  • Identify scale bottlenecks early and drive solutions
  • Mentor and elevate engineers through design reviews, code quality, and architectural thinking
  • Partner directly with founders and product teams to turn business priorities into scalable systems
  • Operate with high ownership in a fast-paced environment where priorities evolve quickly
  • Drive projects independently own timelines, coordinate with teams, and see delivery
  • Conduct rigorous code reviews and champion engineering best practices across the team
  • Proactively identify gaps in the system and come up with concrete approaches to address them
  • Solve technical problems across the company not just confined to a single pod
  • Challenge existing architecture with data and reasoning push back when its the right call, and drive adoption of better approaches.


Requirements

  • 7-12 years of experience in backend or platform engineering
  • Strong computer science fundamentals (preferably from IIT, BITS, NITs)
  • Strong proficiency in backend development (Node.js, Java, Go, or equivalent)
  • Proven experience scaling systems through high-growth startup phases (1→10 or beyond)
  • Track record of building and owning critical platforms or systems from scratch
  • Exposure to high-volume transactional systems; fintech or lending is a strong plus
  • Bias for action - moves fast, makes sound decisions, owns outcomes end-to-end
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and evolving priorities in a startup environment
  • Strong problem-solving skills ability to break down complex technical challenges and arrive at pragmatic, well-reasoned solutions
  • Hands-on experience with platform engineering developer tooling, shared services, infrastructure abstractions, or internal platforms
