Job Description

About Fam (previously FamPay)

Fam is India's first payments app for everyone above 11. FamApp helps make online and offline payments through UPI and FamCard. We are on a mission to raise a new, financially aware generation, and drive 250 million+ youngest users in India to kickstart their financial journey super early in their life.

About this Role

We've got your back if you've got ours!

We are looking for builders of the 1st order who have user centric mindset and build backwards for them. You should get a rush from creating things from scratch and take pleasure in watching users try to tear it apart through sheer volume and strange, unthinkable use cases. And when it breaks, you are to the Fam's rescue! - make everything smooth, secure and stronger than ever! If you inhale resilience and exhale code, apply now!

On the Job

As an SDE-2 at Fam, you'll be expected to independently design and build production-ready systems, not just implement tickets.
Solve complex engineering problems using strong data structures and algorithms
Design clean, extensible low-level designs (LLD) with well-defined abstractions
Write high-quality, maintainable, and testable code with speed and accuracy
Own features end-to-end: design, development, rollout, monitoring, and iteration
Participate actively in design reviews and code reviews
Debug production issues and perform root-cause analysis
Improve existing systems with a focus on correctness, performance, and scalability

Must-haves

Required experience - 3 yrs to 5 yrs
Excellent problem-solving skills with data structures & algorithms
Ability to write clean, production-quality code under time constraints
Deep hands-on experience in at least one language: Go / Python /Java
Ability to design systems using proper abstractions (classes, interfaces, modules)
Clear understanding of object-oriented design principles
Comfortable discussing design trade-offs and alternatives
Experience designing components/services-not just consuming existing ones
Has owned features or modules from design to production
Understands real-world engineering constraints (edge cases, failures, rollout)
Comfortable working with existing systems and improving them meaningfully

Good to have

Experience designing or significantly refactoring a system/component from scratch
Exposure to scale-related concerns (performance, reliability, concurrency)
Familiarity with distributed systems basics (APIs, queues, caching, async flows)
Experience working on consumer-facing, high-traffic products

Why join us

Work with a lean team of engineers, allowing you to build services from scratch
Opportunity to work on challenging & advanced tech
Take full ownership of high-impact projects
Clear path to Senior Engineering roles
Opportunity to own larger systems and 01 problem spaces over time
Strong engineering culture focused on fundamentals and impact
