JOB DESCRIPTION

About the team
We are looking for our Sheldon Cooper. If you are just as passionate about Software Development as he is about Physics, you may be our next Software Development Engineer - II!
We need that kind of passion on our team because when 5% of Indian households shop with us, it’s important to build resilient systems to manage millions of orders every day. We’ve done this– with zero downtime!

We value speed over perfection and see failures as opportunities to become better.

We emphasize the continuous growth of each team member - and we do this with regular 1-1s and open communication. As Software Development Engineer - II - Backend, you will be part of self-starters who thrive on teamwork and constructive feedback.
We know how to party as hard as we work! If we aren’t building unparalleled tech solutions, you can find us debating the plot points of our favorite books and games – or even gossiping over chai. So, if a day filled with building impactful solutions with a fun team sounds appealing, if you like to solve exciting tech problems and complex business use cases, come join us!
About the role
