We empower farmers with innovative technology to optimize resource usage, improve yields, and ensure consistent quality produce. Backed by a team of passionate individuals, Growloc Private Limited is committed to creating a more sustainable and productive future for Indian agriculture.


Role Overview:

 We’re looking for a MERN Stack Engineer (SDE-2) who’s passionate about building impactful products and believes in working smarter—with AI copilots, automation, and lean dev cycles. You’ll be part of a high-ownership team responsible for delivering full-stack features, writing testable code, and deploying to production with CI/CD.

 

Key Responsibilities:

• Build and maintain robust full-stack applications using MongoDB, Nest.js, React.js, and Node.js.

• Actively leverage AI tools (Copilot, ChatGPT, etc.) for faster development, documentation, and writing test cases.

• Write and maintain unit, integration, and end-to-end tests to ensure code quality.

• Own features end-to-end—from design to deployment using modern CI/CD workflows (GitHub Actions, Vercel, AWS).

• Collaborate with product, data, and hardware teams in a lean setup to ship fast and iterate often.

• Ensure performance, responsiveness, and scalability of front-end and backend systems.

 

 

 

Required Skills:

• 2–5 years of professional experience building products using the MERN stack.

• Strong understanding of frontend architecture (React Hooks, Context API/Redux).

• Proficiency in Node.js, Express, and MongoDB schema design.

• Familiarity with CI/CD tools, Git workflows, and cloud deployments.

• Experience with automated testing frameworks (Jest, Mocha, Cypress, etc.).

• Demonstrated use of AI-based coding assistants in real-world development workflows.

  

Good to Have:

• Exposure to IoT systems or integration with hardware devices.

• Experience working with LoRaWAN protocols and sensor data ingestion.

• Familiarity with WebSockets, MQTT, or real-time data processing.

• Background in agriculture, climate-tech, or rural tech products.

• Knowledge of TypeScript or serverless architectures.


Compensation: Best as per the market standards


At Growloc, we believe in purpose-driven technology. You’ll be part of a collaborative team working at the intersection of agriculture and innovation. If you're excited about building products that matter—and making a real-world impact—this is the place for you

Location: Maharashtra, India (Remote / Hybrid) Company: Videoselz Reporting to: CEO

About Videoselz

Videoselz is a fast-paced, Silicon Valley-based startup on a mission to revolutionize how e-commerce brands grow. We build high-performance video processing tools that empower brands to turn content into revenue. Our team is small, elite, and composed of industry veterans, including engineering leadership formerly of Meta.

The Role

We are looking for a scrappy, high-agency Full-Stack Engineer with 2 to 5 years of experience to join our core team. This isn't a role where you’ll be a small cog in a giant machine. You will report directly to the CEO, working alongside leaders who have scaled products for billions of users. You will be expected to wear multiple hats, moving seamlessly between architecting backend services and crafting fluid frontend experiences.

Technical Requirements

  • Experience: 2–3 years of professional software development experience.
  • The Stack: Deep proficiency in JavaScript, React, and Svelte.
  • Full-Stack Mindset: Strong foundational knowledge of backend architecture and the ability to own a feature from database schema to UI deployment.
  • Versatility: You are comfortable jumping into unfamiliar territory, whether it's optimizing video rendering pipelines or refining a checkout flow.

What to Expect (The Reality)

  • High Velocity: We move fast. The workload is high, the deadlines are tight, and the quality bar is even higher.
  • Extreme Impact: Every line of code you write will directly influence the success of our e-commerce partners.
  • Direct Access: Reporting to the CEO means your ideas are heard immediately, and your feedback shapes the product roadmap.

Why Join Us?

While we work hard, we believe in taking care of our "A-Players." We offer a Silicon Valley-style environment right here in Maharashtra.

  • Mentorship: Learn directly from ex-Meta engineering leaders who understand how to build world-class systems.
  • Generous Benefits: Competitive salary.
  • Rest & Recharge: We offer "Days Off" policy. We believe that when you aren't working, you should be completely disconnected so you can come back at 100%.
  • Equity/Growth: As an early member of a small team, you will have significant upside as the company scales.

The Ideal Candidate

You are a "Product Engineer" at heart. You don't just want a ticket assigned to you; you want to understand the "why" behind the feature. You are based in Maharashtra and are ready to put in the hours to build something that defines a category.
