About ZillOut ZillOut builds the operating layer behind how India goes out: nightlife, dining and live events, where real money moves every minute. Clubs, cafés, sundowners and concerts run on one system: POS and ordering, entry and the digital cover, ticketing and reservations. Venues and organizers use it to run tighter operations, stop revenue leaks and understand their guests. We're hiring a backend engineer to build the platform venues and organizers run on: entry, ticketing, reservations, ordering, and payments. Strong fundamentals matter more than years of experience, and frontend skills are a plus. Role: Backend Engineer (Java / Spring Boot)
