• Write clean, production-grade code with strong testing practices
• Set up engineering best practices and coding standards
• Review code and mentor other developers
• Build systems from scratch and improve existing components
• Work closely with product and design to ship fast and iterate quickly

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of hands-on software development experience
• Strong backend development experience with Java
• Solid frontend experience with React
• Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and system design
• Experience building and scaling production applications
• Strong knowledge of SQL and database design
• Deep understanding of OOP principles
• Ability to take ownership and work in a fast-moving startup environment
• Strong problem-solving skills

Nice to Have

• Experience with microservices or event-driven architecture
• Cloud experience (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Docker and CI/CD exposure
• Experience building products from 0 → 1

Why Join Us?

• Be one of the early engineers shaping the product and culture
• Real decision-making power
