About the role

We are hiring three SDE-1 Backend Engineers to build and operate services that power client products. You will write clean APIs, model data thoughtfully, and ship reliable backend systems under the guidance of senior engineers—while growing fast on real production workloads.

This is an early-career role for people who take fundamentals seriously: data structures, algorithms, API design, and cloud-native backends.

What you will do

Design, implement, and maintain RESTful (and occasionally event-driven) APIs used by web and mobile clients
Write services in Java, C#, or Go, choosing the right tool for the engagement
Model and query data across SQL and NoSQL stores; own migrations, indexing, and basic performance tuning
Deploy and operate services on Azure or AWS (containers, managed databases, queues, observability)
Write tests, participate in code reviews, and document decisions so client teams can operate what we build
Debug production issues with logs, metrics, and traces—and turn findings into durable fixes
Collaborate with frontend engineers, PMs, and client stakeholders to ship vertical slices end to end

What we are looking for

Strong grasp of data structures and algorithms; you can reason about complexity and trade-offs clearly
Hands-on experience with at least one of Java, C#, or Go building backend services
Comfort writing and consuming HTTP APIs (REST; GraphQL or gRPC is a plus)
Working knowledge of SQL and/or NoSQL databases (e.g. PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, Cosmos DB, DynamoDB)
Exposure to Azure or AWS—deploying apps, using managed services, and reading cloud dashboards
Clear written and verbal communication; you ask good questions and document as you go
0–2 years of professional experience, or strong internship / project work that shows production-minded thinking

Nice to have

Familiarity with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code basics
Experience with message queues (Service Bus, SQS, Kafka) or caching layers
Understanding of auth patterns (JWT, OAuth2) and API security fundamentals
Contributions to open source or well-documented personal projects

What success looks like

In your first six months you will independently own API endpoints and service changes, contribute meaningfully in design discussions, and leave every codebase clearer than you found it—with tests, docs, and observability that outlast the engagement.

Benefits

Competitive SDE-1 compensation with clear growth path to mid-level
Hybrid work in Chandigarh with flexible hours focused on outcomes
Mentorship from senior engineers on architecture, cloud, and client delivery
Annual learning budget for courses, certifications, and conferences
Health coverage for you and dependents
