We are looking for a Backend Developer for our Engineering team.

What You'll Do :

 You will be a part of our backend team working on keeping our REST API and GraphQL API up and running and making sure that our users get the right data at the right time.
 You will have ownership of developing and maintaining our backend services including users, courses, and operations tools that manage our product and logistics.
 You will work on architecting and scaling highly-available RESTful services and back-end systems from scratch.

JavaScript, and with the stables of full-stack web development : HTTP, JavaScript, CSS, HTML, SQL.
 It's a bonus if you're broadly familiar with other languages as well- we write some services in Go and have data pipelines written in Python- but your main work will be JavaScript through and through.
 You will be a perfect match with our team if you love collaborating with people from all disciplines to solve complex problems, always want to learn new skills and take ownership of your work.

About Brew:-

We believe that the future of banking will be built on top of Cryptocurrencies and DeFi Protocols. However, in its current form, DeFi is too expensive and complex for a common person to participate in. We want to change that with Brew. 

 

Underneath the hood, Brew is a Wallet that makes it super simple to make deposits and take out loans on DeFi and do peer-to-peer and merchant transactions without having to worry about gas fees or navigating multiple chains and tokens. 

The founders come from a strong background in technology and product. We’re backed by some of the best investors in the startup and crypto ecosystem. We’re based out of Bangalore, India but are open to the remote too. 

 

Role:-

We seek engineers who are passionate about building great products and have the conviction that Crypto is going to change the world for the better. 

You may be fit for this role if you 

  • Love Programming and are able to write high-quality code.
  • Have between 1-3 years of experience.
  • Are curious and have a willingness to learn. 
  • Maintain a high degree of ownership and accountability.
  • Are proficient in OOPs, Data Structures, and Algorithms. 
  • Familiarity with Solidity, Node.js, React Native and C++ is a plus.
