The role

We're looking for a backend engineer to own the systems Funngro runs on.

You'll join a team that has built and shipped a mature production platform, learn it quickly, and take full responsibility for it. Within three months we want you owning the backend end to end — the APIs, the database, the scheduled jobs, the integrations and the infrastructure they run on.

This is a broad, high-trust role. Our backend handles user accounts, project workflows, wallets and payouts, and integrations with a wide range of partners. Some of it moves real money to real teenagers, which means correctness matters more here than almost anywhere else you'll have worked.

What you'll own
Our APIs — the services powering the mobile app and our internal tools
The database — schema design, query performance, indexing, growth and retention
Scheduled jobs — a substantial suite handling notifications, payouts, reconciliation and reporting
Integrations — payments and payouts, rewards partners, messaging providers and analytics
Money movement — wallets, payouts and reward ledgers, where accuracy is non-negotiable
Infrastructure — the cloud setting, deployments, monitoring and cost
Technical direction for the backend — architecture, data model and the quality bar
Essential




3–5 years building production Node.js backends serving real traffic
Solid MongoDB experience — you've designed schemas, written indexes, and diagnosed a slow query in production
Experience becoming productive in a large codebase you didn't write. This matters more to us than almost anything else. Tell us about the biggest one you've worked in and how you got up to speed.
You've worked on something involving payments or money movement, and you understand why that code needs to be treated differently
Comfortable operating in production — deployments, logs, and handling an incident
You ask questions when something doesn't make sense rather than guessing
Nice to have
Sails.js (or another opinionated framework — NestJS, Rails, Laravel all transfer well)
Redis or another caching layer
Cloud platform experience — Azure, AWS or GCP
Payment gateway integrations (Razorpay, PayU or similar)
SMS, WhatsApp or email delivery at volume
Performance tuning and cost optimisation
