Python Developer

About us:

Optimo Capital is a newly established NBFC founded by Prashant Pitti, who is also a co-founder of EaseMyTrip (a billion-dollar listed startup that grew profitably without any funding).

Our mission is to serve the underserved MSME businesses in India with their credit needs. With less than 15% of MSMEs having access to formal credit, we aim to bridge this credit gap by employing a phygital model (physical branches + digital decision-making).

As a technology and data-first company, tech and data enthusiasts play a crucial role in building the infrastructure at Optimo, and help the company thrive.

What we offer:

Join our dynamic startup team as a Backend Developer and play a crucial role in building robust web APIs, credit risk and underwriting decision engines, third-party tech integrations, data pipelines, and cloud infrastructure.

This is an exceptional opportunity to learn, grow, and make a significant impact in a fast-paced startup environment. We believe that the freedom and accountability to make decisions in system architecture and technical design bring out the best in you — and help us build the best for the company.

What We Look For:

We're looking for individuals with strong proficiency in Python, Django, and RESTful API development. Experience with Flask, FastAPI, or AWS is a strong plus. Beyond skills, we value your attitude - your hunger to learn, take ownership, and thrive both independently and as part of a team.

We encourage picking up new technologies fast, understanding them deeply, and shipping them into production with confidence.

❤️ Well Being, compensation and how we behave when no one is watching?

We care about your well-being. Along with excellent health insurance, we offer flexibility to work how you want to. We push for physical well-being and in addition to internal health sessions, you get a complimentary annual gym membership.

We assign dedicated work hours exclusively to learning & development initiatives. We respect your weekends and in terms of work hours, we believe in deliverables over anything else. We regularly host team-building sessions, off-sites and encourage discussions around mental well-being and physical well-being over everything else. Most importantly, when our chips are down, we behave the way a family would.

We admire talent and believe in rewarding people for their input. We understand that compensation is an important factor. Our compensation will be respectful to your situation, and the whole process will be transparent from the very minute we speak to you.

Most of us have grown up in a meritocratic culture where actions speak louder. We grew up saying yes to a lot of things outside of our comfort zone and we want to maintain the same without any compromise. When actions speak, we love to celebrate and amplify bold moves. We don’t have answers to a lot of questions and when we falter, we will acknowledge our missteps. There are no closed doors in the way we work. At the end of the day, we are human beings and we will ensure that you can proudly call Crunchit your home.

🍰 What gives you brownie points?

You demonstrate learnability. The founders have spent their years building things mostly independently and at times relying on the collective hive mind of peers. If you are willing to learn and dare to say yes to things that lie out of your comfort zone, you’ll love the growth and transformation.

🏡 Where will you work from?

We are operating out of Central Indiranagar, Bangalore. We are firm believers in "when we sit together on a table, we move mountains". So you will be required to come to our office [WFO], which we have designed with a lot of love and affection :)
