Senior Software Engineer (Infrastructure)

About us:

Clients have the owner's cell number, and the owner still takes the occasional Saturday call. No call centre and no offshore help desk. When clients call, one of us picks up. After-hours on-call comes around every fourth week.

The role:

The role is new and comes from growth in our client base. Our operations team is six engineers and we're adding one more. Most of the work is backend services, with some internal tooling. Fully remote. You can work from anywhere in India. You can set your own hours around a daily morning check-in. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

What you'll do:

• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review.
• Work with product managers and designers to scope features and cut what isn't needed.
• Maintain REST and gRPC APIs used by internal teams and outside partners.
• Keep dependencies current and patch findings from Dependabot or Snyk.
• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana.

What we're looking for:

• 7+ years of professional software development experience.
• Familiarity with Git, pull request workflows and CI tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins or CircleCI.
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including writing efficient SQL.
• Comfortable working in Linux and on the command line.
• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript.

Perks and benefits:

• Paid leave.
• Gratuity.
• Learning budget.
• ESOPs.
• Flexible hours.
