• Work across backend, frontend, and infrastructure layers as needed
• Collaborate with product stakeholders to define requirements and make informed trade-offs
• Identify gaps, inefficiencies, or product issues and proactively suggest improvements.
• Maintain high standards of code quality, testing, and performance

Requirements

• Strong academic background from top-tier engineering institutions (e.g., IITs, IISc, IIITs, BITS, top NITs, or equivalent)
• 6–10+ years of experience in software engineering, with strong full-stack exposure.
• Strong backend engineering experience (Ruby on Rails preferred, or Python, Go, Rust with equivalent depth)
• Solid frontend development experience with modern frameworks (e.g., React or similar).
• Strong understanding of system design, APIs, and scalable architecture
• Proven ability to build and ship production-grade applications end-to-end
• Demonstrated product mindset with the ability to think beyond implementation
• Experience working in product-driven environments with high ownership
• Hands-on experience using AI tools (e.g., Copilot, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude) in day-to-day development
• Ability to critically evaluate AI-generated output and apply sound engineering judgment
• Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate technical decisions clearly
• High level of autonomy, ownership, and problem-solving capability

Nice to Have

• Experience working in high-growth startups or product-led companies
• Experience contributing across DevOps or infrastructure
• Strong track record of ownership and impact in previous roles
• Exposure to fast-paced, high-performance engineering cultures
