- Track record of shipping products from ambiguity to impact.
- Strong product mindset — your goal is user value, not just elegant code.
- Architectural leadership with ownership of engineering rigor and scaling best practices.
- Startup or founder DNA — you’ve built things from scratch and know how to move fast without breaking things.
Who You Are
- A former founder, senior IC, or tech lead who’s done zero-to-one and 1-to-n scaling.
- Hungry for ownership and velocity — frustrated by bureaucracy or stagnation.
- You code because you care about solving real problems for real users.
- You’re pragmatic, hands-on, and grounded in first principles.
- You understand that great software isn't just shipped — it's hardened, maintained, and evolves with minimal manual effort.
- You’re open to evolving into a founding engineer role with influence over the tech vision and culture.
What You Get
- Equity in a high-growth product-led startup.
- A chance to build global products out of India with full-stack and GenAI innovation.
