Apply by email About the job
You will join our product engineering team on a live consumer mobile product used across North America, and own its backend: Python services on AWS with AI services in the path of every user session. We build the product, run it in production, and decide how it evolves.
One person owns all of it: the services, the APIs, the vendor integrations, and the AWS account they run on. Roughly half the job is backend development and half is infrastructure, deployment, and operations. There is no separate DevOps engineer. If you want to write application code and hand the cloud to someone else, this is the wrong seat.
You work alongside our senior mobile lead, who holds architecture, and our QA engineer. You make sound calls on your own, with the tech lead there to check them against, not to make them for you.



Your first real task is reading an undocumented system and reconstructing what it actually does.
This is not an applied ML role. Model training and evaluation research are a separate function. This role builds the plumbing that makes that possible: reliable integrations, honest cost and usage data, and a system someone can safely change.
This is a contract role, full-time or part-time depending on fit. We agree which one with you during the interviews, and a part-time contract can move to full-time as the work grows. It is hybrid: you work from home most of the month and from our Gurugram office 3–4 days a month. Gurugram is preferred, but we will consider strong candidates elsewhere in India who can travel for those days. Rate is benchmarked to seniority and we share a number in the first conversation.
