We're hiring SDE — Java Backend
Location: Gurugram (Work From Office) | Experience: 2–5 Years | Full-Time
AdGrid is building at the intersection of AdTech × FinTech, focused on creating high-scale, reliable backend infrastructure from the ground up.
We're looking for a Java Backend Engineer who has worked on real production systems — not just CRUD APIs, but systems that handle scale, failures, and complexity.
What you'll work on- Own backend services end-to-end — architecture → development → production
- Build and operate Kafka-based systems with real-world failure handling (retries, rebalancing, lag)
- Design backward-compatible APIs with clear contracts
- Optimize databases — indexing, query plans, and schema design trade-offs
- Improve code quality through reviews, testing (JUnit/Mockito), and clean architecture
- Strengthen observability — structured logging, metrics, and RCA
Must-have skills- Java 17+ — strong in concurrency, collections, and memory management
- Kafka (production experience) — retries, timeouts, consumer groups, rebalances
- Spring Boot — production-grade microservices
- Strong understanding of distributed systems — failure modes, scalability, trade-offs
- Database expertise — PostgreSQL/MySQL or MongoDB (performance tuning)
- Docker & Kubernetes
Good to have- AWS (EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda, SQS, SNS, ECS)
- gRPC, Virtual Threads, reactive systems
- Redis / caching strategies
- Observability stack — OpenSearch, Grafana, Kibana, FluentBit
- Messaging systems like MQTT, FCM
