Purva Software is hiring a Software Developer (Remote) to work remotely from Bangladesh. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. Our operations team is six engineers and we're adding one more.

You will be employed through our employer-of-record partner in Bangladesh, with a local contract and salary paid in taka. Flexible hours with a daily team call in the morning. Equipment is provided, including a laptop.

Duties:

• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review.
• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback.
• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana.
• Take part in an on-call rotation (roughly one week in six) and help resolve production incidents.
• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense.

Requirements:

• 3+ years of professional software development experience.
• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript.
• Some exposure to AWS, GCP or Azure.
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests.

What you get:

• Annual learning budget.
