About Switch
Businesses in India lose money every day someone doesn't show up. A restaurant short two waiters on a Friday night, a warehouse missing four loaders before a festive spike, a store with no one to run the counter - the current fix is a WhatsApp group, an agency that takes a cut and disappears, or the owner working the floor themselves.
Switch is building the layer that fixes this. Shops, restaurants, warehouses, offices, and event venues book Aadhaar-verified staff - helpers, guards, cooks, drivers, riders, housekeeping, event crew - in three taps, often deployed the same day. No advance, replacement guaranteed, clean invoices. On the other side, we give workers real, repeat, dignified income instead of standing at a labour chowk hoping for a day's work.
We're live in Gurgaon, running real shifts for real businesses. We're small, pre-seed, and moving fast.

The role
You'd be our first engineer.



Not the first engineer on a team - the engineering team.
Today a lot of Switch runs on human effort: matching, confirmations, replacements, and support all lean on the ops team and WhatsApp. That's the right way to start and the wrong way to scale. Your job is to turn what ops does by hand into software that does it in seconds, and to build the product surface - worker app, business app, internal tools - that lets us go from one city to many.
You will write the code, choose the stack, ship it, and be on the hook when it breaks at 9pm on a Saturday during someone's dinner rush. In return you get real ownership of the technical direction and a front-row seat to everything else: pricing, ops, hiring, fundraising.

What you'll actually build (first 6 months)
- Matching engine. Turn a booking into the right worker — availability, location, skill, reliability history, price - rapid enough that "same day" becomes "same hour."
