Back to All Positions Founding Engineer Bengaluru (On-site) Full-time 4-5+ years About Tradio Tradio is transforming textile sourcing for global fashion and home brands. We eliminate supply chain fragmentation with a full-stack approach uniting sourcing, verified manufacturers, quality control, and logistics. Unlike marketplaces, we deliver end-to-end reliability through technology and a vetted supplier network.
The Role
As our founding engineer, you'll build the MVP from scratch and architect the foundations of a scalable product. You'll own end-to-end development—backend architecture, frontend interfaces, AI features, and deployment—working directly with founders, manufacturers, and buyers to build features that transform the textile industry. This isn't a role with handoffs.
You'll design systems, ship code, deploy to production, monitor performance, and iterate based on real feedback. You'll build intelligent features like certification engines, demand forecasting, and autonomous order tracking using AI/ML. You thrive in ambiguity, own outcomes, and have shipped production software that real users depend on.
