Senior Software Engineer

Job Description

We're a small team building AI that runs live in an Indian hospital, not a demo, not a pilot. We do real-time clinical audits, ambient AI assistance for doctors, and ML-based OT scheduling. We're looking for a Senior Engineer who wants to own critical systems, work closely with clinical teams, and help us scale this across India. If you want your code to matter, this is it. As one of our earliest engineers, you'll receive ESOPs with real upside in a company that's already live in hospitals, not a promise of future product. You'll have direct access to the founders, genuine ownership over architectural decisions, and the rare satisfaction of seeing your code improve patient care within weeks of writing it. We are looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer to take ownership of critical components within our core platform. In this role, you will transition from just writing code to architecting scalable systems, driving engineering best practices, and mentoring junior engineers. You will sit at the intersection of backend resilience and frontend performance, leveraging our tech stack to build highly available, secure, and user-centric applications. Responsibilities: - Architecture and Development: Architect, design, and lead the development of complex backend systems and interactive frontend features using Python (Django) and JavaScript/TypeScript (React, Next.js ). Ensure codebases are robust, modular, and scalable. - API Design and Integration: Design and maintain high-performance RESTful APIs and microservices. Architect seamless integrations with complex third-party devices and internal systems. - Database Management at Scale: Lead database design and architecture (PostgreSQL). Optimise complex queries, manage large-scale data migrations, implement caching strategies, and ensure data integrity under high concurrent loads. - Asynchronous Architecture: Design and maintain robust asynchronous processing pipelines, background workers, and event-driven architectures to handle heavy data processing and automated tasks efficiently. - System Reliability and Observability: Own the performance and uptime of your services. Define SLIs/SLOs, build comprehensive monitoring and alerting systems using Prometheus, Grafana, or New Relic, and lead incident resolution and post-mortems. - DevOps and CI/CD: Working understanding of cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, containerised deployments, and enforcing strict cloud security best practices. - Technical Leadership and Mentoring: Lead code reviews, enforce high standards for code quality and test coverage (unit, integration, and E2E), and actively mentor junior engineers and interns to elevate the entire team's capabilities. Skills Required: - Backend: Python, Django (or equivalent frameworks like FastAPI/Flask). - Frontend: JavaScript (ES6+), TypeScript, React.js, Next.js . - Database: SQL/ NoSQL, Database Tuning, Caching. - Infrastructure and Tools: REST API Design, Celery/RabbitMQ, Docker, Git, CI/CD automation. - Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, New Relic, Datadog (or similar). Qualifications and Who Can Apply: Only candidates who meet the following criteria should apply: - Experience: Have 4+ years of proven, hands-on experience in full-stack or backend-heavy software engineering. - System Design: Possess a strong grasp of system design patterns, distributed systems, and scalable web architectures. - Availability: Can join immediately or within a standard notice period (30-60 days). - Location: This role is full-time, in-office in Bangalore, 6 days a week, and we're intentional about that.
