Role Overview

As an SDE-2, you will design and build backend services that power learning and governance products serving millions of users across India. You will own end-to-end delivery of REST APIs, microservices, and AI-enhanced backend features - and work closely with infrastructure teams to deploy and operate these systems across both cloud and on-premise environments, including state data centres (SDCs).

This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who enjoys building for scale, writing clean code, and navigating the real-world constraints of public-sector deployments.

Key Responsibilities

- Architect and implement REST APIs that are robust, well-documented, and easy to consume.

- Design and implement low-latency, high-availability, and performant backend applications.

- Build AI-enhanced or agent-driven backend features using tools like LangChain or CrewAI.

- Build backend services for handling data at large scale, with clean separation of concerns.

- Test software to ensure responsiveness, correctness, and efficiency.

- Collaborate with front-end developers on the integration of UI elements with backend services.

- Take initiatives to build better and faster solutions to the problems of scale.

- Troubleshoot application-related issues and work with the infrastructure team to triage Major Incidents.

- Analyze and research solutions, and develop and implement recommendations accordingly.

- Install and configure software and applications on servers across cloud and on-premise environments.

- Automate and deploy applications including deployments to on-prem and state data centre (SDC).

Qualifications





- Bachelors Degree in Computer Science or a related field.

- Two or more years of skilled backend engineering experience.

- Expertise in JavaScript (ES6) and Node.js is a must.

- In-depth knowledge of frameworks like Express.js and Restify.

- In-depth knowledge of Node.js concepts like the event loop.

- Strong knowledge of algorithms and data structures.

- Experience in building backend services for handling data at large scale is a must.

- Ability to architect high-availability applications and servers on cloud, adhering to best practices.

- Microservices architecture is preferable.

Preferred qualifications

- Hands-on experience deploying and managing applications on on-premise infrastructure, particularly State Data Centres (SDCs), NIC, or other government data centres.

- Experience with virtualization platforms (VMware, KVM, Hyper-V, Nutanix) commonly used in SDCs.

- Experience with infrastructure-as-code and configuration management tools like Ansible, Terraform, or Puppet for hybrid (cloud + on-prem) environments.

- Basic knowledge of AWS and Docker containerization.

- Experience with Kubernetes or other container orchestration in on-prem clusters.

- Exposure to monitoring and any observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Zabbix, Nagios) for production systems.

- Knowledge of front-end frameworks like ReactJS would be a plus.
