Senior Backend Engineer

  • Full-time
  • Kolkata, India
  • 5+ years experience

Placeholder listing. Replace with your live vacancy before publishing.

You will work on systems where correctness is not negotiable — recruitment platforms that get challenged in court, banking flows where a failed transaction means a customer has handed over cash for nothing.

What you will do

  • Design and build backend services in Java, Node.js or Python
  • Model data for systems that must reconcile exactly, every time
  • Work directly with client teams during discovery and rollout
  • Take part in on-call rotation for systems you help build

What we look for

  • 5+ years building production backend systems
  • Strong relational database skills — schema design, query performance, transactions and isolation levels
  • Experience with systems under real load, and the judgement to know what will break first
  • Clear written communication, because much of our work is documented for auditors and successors

What we do not require

A specific degree, or a particular framework on your CV. We care whether you can reason about a system that has to be right.
