Sr DevOps Developer

About the Fund

Bottomline Ventures is a ₹20 Crore early-stage fund backing revenue-generating startups in Tier 2 India — cities like Jaipur, Surat, Indore, Coimbatore, and Visakhapatnam that are producing serious businesses the mainstream VC ecosystem keeps overlooking.

We write ₹2–4 Cr cheques at Seed and Pre-Series A into companies with real revenue, strong unit economics, and founders who understand their market from the inside. We are pre-AIF registration and building the fund from the ground up. This hire is the second person on the team.

The Role

This is not a polished corporate job. There is no existing process to plug into, no team to hand things off to, and no brand name to open doors for you. What there is: a clear thesis, a GP who will involve you in every investment decision from day one, and carry tied directly to fund performance.

If you want to learn how a fund is actually built — from sourcing the first deal to structuring the first close — this is the role. If you want a structured environment with defined KPIs and a large team, this is not.

What You'll Do

• Own the top of the deal funnel — identify, reach out to, and qualify founders across Tier 2 cities through accelerators, CA networks, incubators, and direct outreach
• Run first-pass financial diligence: read P&Ls, model unit economics, flag risks and build a view before any GP time is spent
• Write investment memos — clear, short, with a recommendation. No decks, no fluff
• Track the pipeline in Notion/Airtable and keep it clean and current
• Support LP communications and quarterly reporting once the fund is deployed
• Handle day-to-day fund operations: scheduling, follow-ups, data room management, compliance support
• Research Tier 2 startup ecosystems, map sectors, and help build the fund's point of view publicly over time

Who We're Looking For

Must-have

• 1–2 years of experience in transactions advisory (Big 4 / boutique), startup operations, or a related analytical role
• You can read a P&L and have an opinion on it, not just summarise it
• You write clearly. You've produced a memo, a report, or an analysis that someone acted on
• You've done outreach at scale and understand that most people won't respond — and you do it anyway
• You're genuinely curious about Tier 2 India, not just saying so

Nice-to-have

• You have a network in one or more non-metro Indian cities
• You've worked at a startup with fewer than 20 people
• You've read at least one Indian VC firm's annual letter or LP report for fun
• You have a view on why most early-stage Indian funds miss Tier 2 entirely

We enable explanations of predictions, continuous monitoring of drifts, and assessing fairness in the real world. (TLDR build the best ML monitoring tool)

The culture

We believe in constantly iterating and improving our team culture, just like our product. We have found a good balance between async and sync work default is still Notion docs over meetings, but at the same time, we recognize that as an early-stage startup brainstorming together over calls leads to results faster. If you enjoy taking ownership, moving quickly, and writing docs, you will fit right in.

The role:

Our engineering team is growing and we are looking to bring on board a senior software engineer who can help us transition to the next phase of the company. As we roll out our platform to customers, you will be pivotal in refining our system architecture, ensuring the various tech stacks play well with each other, and smoothening the DevOps process.

On the platform, we use Python (ML-related jobs), Golang (core infrastructure), and NodeJS (user-facing). The platform is 100% cloud-native and we use Envoy as a proxy (eventually will lead to service-mesh architecture).

By joining our team, you will get the exposure to working across a swath of modern technologies while building an enterprise-grade ML platform in the most promising area.

Responsibilities

• Be the bridge between engineering and product teams. Understand long-term product roadmap and architect a system design that will scale with our plans.

• Continually evaluate and improve DevOps processes for a cloud-native codebase.
• Review PRs, mentor others and proactively take initiatives to improve our team's shipping velocity.
• Leverage your industry experience to champion engineering best practices within the organization.

• Fluency in writing production-grade Go or Python in a microservice architecture with containers/VMs for over 3+ years.
• 3+ years of DevOps experience (Kubernetes, Docker, Helm and public cloud APIs)
• Worked with relational (SQL) as well as non-relational databases (Mongo or Couch) in a production environment.
• (Bonus: worked with big data in data lakes/warehouses).
• (Bonus: built an end-to-end ML pipeline)

Skills

• Strong documentation skills. As a remote team, we heavily rely on elaborate documentation for everything we are working on.
• Ability to motivate, mentor, and lead others (we have a flat team structure, but the team would rely upon you to make important decisions)
• Strong independent contributor as well as a team player.
• Working knowledge of ML and familiarity with concepts of MLOps

Benefits

• Competitive Salary
• Work Remotely
• Health insurance
• Unlimited Time Off
• Support for continual learning (free books and online courses)
• Reimbursement for streaming services (think Netflix)
• Reimbursement for gym or physical activity of your choice

You will excel in this role if

• You have a product mindset. You understand, care about, and can relate to our customers.
• You take ownership, collaborate, and follow through to the very end.
• You love solving difficult problems, stand your ground, and get what you want from engineers.
• Resonate with our core values of innovation, curiosity, accountability, trust, fun, and social good.
