We're scaling towards 1M+ shipments/month and building a high-scale WMS and fulfillment platform.

The Role (Please Read Carefully)

This is NOT a manager role.

• Codes 70–80% of the time
• Owns the product end-to-end
• Collaborates with Product & Support teams
• Reviews code and mentors junior engineers

You lead by building, not by delegation.

What You'll Work On

• High-scale backend systems (rate engines, tracking, WMS)
• Microservice-based, highly scalable applications (mandatory experience)
• Distributed services in Node.js (some Java)
• Frontend using React
• AWS infrastructure (Lambda, ECS, RDS, OpenSearch)

What We Expect

• 10+ years of hands-on development
• Strong JavaScript, Node.js, and React
• Working knowledge of Java
• Proven experience building microservices and high-scale production systems
• Clean code, solid architecture, debugging mindset

Compensation

Budgeted around 25 LPA, with flexibility for the right hands-on profile, based on current compensation and interview performance.

Interview Process

1. Intro discussion with CEO / CTO
2. JavaScript coding test
3. In-person technical round (Kochi/Bangalore)

If you still love coding after 10+ years and want to build systems that scale in production, you'll feel at home here. Apply for this job or contact me via LinkedIn to learn more about this role.
