About Meraki Labs
Meraki Labs is at the forefront of India's deep-tech innovation landscape, operating as a dynamic
venture studio founded by visionary entrepreneur
Mukesh Bansal (Founder - Myntra, Cure Fit) and Peeyush Ranjan (Former Google VP and Flipkart CTO). Our mission is to build and rapidly scale AI-first, moonshot startups—transforming groundbreaking ideas into next-generation industry leaders. Through a hands-on, intensive partnership model, we work closely with exceptional founders, driving these ventures from concept to impact.
The Role
We are looking for a seasoned
Senior Frontend Engineer (5–7 years) to own the user experience of our platform. You will be a high-impact IC, but you'll also serve as a technical north star for a small team of engineers, helping them level up their craft.
This is a full-time position, on-site, 5 days from office in HSR Layout, Bengaluru (Bangalore)
What You'll Do
- Architect & Build: Lead the development of high-performance mobile and web applications using React Native or Flutter.
- Optimize Everything: Obsess over experience metrics. You'll be responsible for minimizing load times, optimizing bundle sizes, and implementing sophisticated caching strategies to ensure a zero-latency feel.
- Mentor: Guide a small, agile team through code reviews, architectural discussions, and technical career growth.
- Innovate with AI: Integrate AI-forward workflows and features into our frontend ecosystem, moving beyond standard CRUD operations to create intelligent user interfaces.
- Product Collaboration: Work closely with design and product teams to translate complex fintech workflows into simple, elegant user journeys.
What We're Looking For
- The Experience: 5 to 7 years of professional experience building and scaling fintech consumer-grade applications.
- The Stack: Deep expertise in cross-platform mobile frameworks (React Native and Flutter) and modern web technologies.
- Performance First: A proven track record of moving the needle on metrics like LCP, TTI, and First Contentful Paint. You know exactly when to use a local DB versus an aggressive cache policy.
- FinTech DNA: You understand the nuances of trust, security, and precision in financial interfaces.
- AI Enthusiast: You don't just use Copilot; you have personal projects or a deep interest in how LLMs and Generative AI can transform the frontend experience.
- Leadership: You enjoy being an Individual Contributor but have the emotional intelligence and technical depth to collaborate with the team.
Bonus Points If...
- You have contributed to open-source libraries.
- You have a Product Engineer mindset—you care as much about why we are building a feature as how we build it.
- You've navigated the complexities of financial regulations and data visualization in past roles.
Why Join Us
- An opportunity to directly work with founders.
- High autonomy and ownership of the frontend roadmap.
- Meaningful ESOP.
- The chance to build in an AI-native environment.
- Competitive compensation and the opportunity to shape the engineering culture of a growing team.
