Roles & Responsibilities:

What You'll Do:

- Design and build the core Node.js services and REST APIs from scratch, built to scale as we grow.

- Own system design end to end: service boundaries, data flow, caching, queueing, failure modes, and scale.

- Ship AI/ML-powered features, including LLM and agentic capabilities.

- Use LLMs and agentic tooling across the SDLC, from design and code generation to testing and debugging.

- Model data and optimize SQL/NoSQL queries for performance; integrate with third-party platforms.

- Debug production issues, own reliability, and set the engineering standards the rest of the team will grow into.

Ideal Candidate:

- 7+ years of hands-on Backend Engineering experience using Node.js building production-grade systems for B2C products at meaningful consumer scale.

- AI-native in their own engineering workflow: already uses LLMs and agentic tooling across the SDLC.

- Owned backend architecture end to end, including greenfield builds.

- Solid understanding of backend fundamentals, including API development, service-oriented architecture, data structures, algorithms, and clean coding practices.

- Strong experience working with databases (SQL and/or NoSQL), including efficient data modeling, query optimization, and performance tuning.

- Experience building and shipping products that use LLMs and agentic workflows to end users.

- B.Tech or Dual degree from Tier 1 Engineering Institutes (IITs).

- Seed-funded WealthTech startup. Candidate must be comfortable in an early-stage, fast-paced environment with shifting priorities.

- Founding tech team role. Work from office, 6 days a week.
