ABOUT ADGRID
AdGrid is an early-stage, stealth-mode AdTech–FinTech company based in Gurugram, building a platform at the intersection of advertising technology and financial infrastructure. We are a small, quick-moving team hiring the people who will help shape the company from the ground up.
ROLE SUMMARY
We are looking for a Backend Engineer to build and ship the core product APIs our platform runs on. We run a microservices architecture on AWS, with Java and Spring Boot and Go as our two primary backend stacks, alongside PostgreSQL and MySQL, Docker, and Kafka and message queues for event-driven flows. We are equally happy to hire strong Java engineers or strong Go engineers. Our products sit at the intersection of advertising technology and financial infrastructure, which means real-time data on one side and money movement on the other, so correctness is not a nice-to-have here. You will own features end-to-end, from design discussions through to production and the alerts that follow, and you will be close enough to the product to have a say in what gets built, not just how.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
• Build and ship backend services in Java with Spring Boot or in Go, from design discussion through to
production.
• Design and document REST API contracts that other services and teams depend on, rather than only
implementing someone else’s spec.
• Work across a microservices architecture on AWS: service-to-service calls, event-driven flows over Kafka and
message queues, and the failure modes that come with them.
• Write code that holds up under real conditions, concurrent requests, partial failures, duplicate calls, and out-of-order events, not just the happy path.
• Break down ambiguous problems and pick the right data structures and algorithms for the job, with an eye on time and space cost at the scale we run at.
• Write unit and integration tests as part of the work, not as something bolted on afterwards.
• Work with our SQL databases day to day: sensible schemas,
