The ideal candidate should have experience building scalable web applications, designing APIs, leading small teams, and owning end-to-end technical delivery in a fast-paced product environment.

Design and build scalable, secure, and high-performance REST APIs

Own end-to-end feature delivery from design to deployment

Work closely with Product and Tech team to translate business requirements into technical solutions

Ensure code quality through reviews, standards, and best practices

Deploy and manage applications on AWS (EC2, S3, RDS, CloudFront, Lambda, etc.)

Implement CI/CD pipelines and DevOps best practices

Optimize application performance and database queries

Troubleshoot production issues and ensure system reliability

Mentor junior developers and maximise engineering velocity

Required Skills

5–7 years of backend development experience

Strong hands-on experience with Python (Django framework) and PHP (Laravel or similar frameworks)

Strong understanding of REST APIs, microservices architecture

Solid experience with AWS cloud services

Experience with MySQL/MongoDB and database optimization

Hands-on with Linux environments

Familiarity with GitLab, CI/CD pipelines.

Understanding of security best practices and performance optimizations for web applications

Good to Have

Exposure to AI agents, LLM integrations or RAG-based systems

Experience in scalable edtech/E-commerce platforms

Knowledge of caching systems (Redis/Memcached)

Understanding of frontend frameworks (React/Angular) for better collaboration

Experience working in startup or product-based environments

What We’re Looking For

Ownership mindset — takes responsibility beyond assigned tasks

Ability to balance speed with scalability

Strong problem-solving skills

Clear communicator and team mentor

Comfortable working in evolving and dynamic environments
