Job Summary

Software Development Engineer - 2 (SDE-2) Build the backend behind Indias next 100M-user apps

If you want to own architecture decisions, ship systems that get stress-tested by millions of users immediately, and directly shape what Bharat watches and learns next - this is the place to build it.
What Youll Actually Do
Own outcomes, not just tickets. Get close to real user behavior and turn every release into a measurable improvement in experience.
Drive the architecture, not just the implementation. Take end-to-end ownership of delivery and solution architecture for your feature area - design systems that are scalable, reliable, and fault-tolerant by default.
Think in HLDs and LLDs. Translate ambiguous, complex backend problems into clean, well-reasoned designs - and then build them.
Obsess over API performance. Push for best-in-class response times and reliability across every feature you touch.
Mentor junior engineers and raise the bar on code quality through reviews and design discussions.
What You Bring
3+ years of hands-on experience designing,



building, testing, and deploying large-scale applications.
Solid fundamentals in data structures, algorithms, and OOPs, with solid command of concurrency and multi-threading.
Proficiency in Java, with GoLang or Python as a solid plus.
Comfort modeling data across both relational and NoSQL databases.
The ability to design and ship low-latency RESTful services that hold up under real traffic.
Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP) and distributed queue systems like Kafka.
A habit of refactoring and improving systems continuously - not letting technical debt pile up.
Genuine curiosity and a hunger for hard problems.
Extra Brownie Points
Youve ridden the wave of rapid company growth - startup to mid-size - and know what breaks (and what to fix) along the way.
Youve helped decompose a monolith into microservices.
Youve worked with Firebase or WebSockets in production.
