Senior Full Stack Developer

Location : Bengaluru, India (On-site)

Employment Type : Full-time

Experience : 4+ years

Notice Period : Immediate to 30 days

What You'll Do

• Build and own customer-facing products using React and Node.js.
• Design APIs, data models, and backend systems that are reliable, maintainable, and scalable.
• Translate ambiguous product requirements into simple, thoughtful technical solutions.
• Work closely with Product, Design, Academics, and Operations to understand problems and ship solutions quickly.
• Make pragmatic architecture and engineering decisions without over-engineering.
• Review code and help establish strong engineering practices across the team.
• Debug production issues and improve the reliability and observability of our systems.
• Use AI coding tools effectively while maintaining a high bar for code quality and understanding what you ship.

What We're Looking For

• 4+ years of software engineering experience, with strong full stack experience.
• Strong proficiency with JavaScript/TypeScript, React, and Node.js.
• Solid understanding of relational databases, API design, authentication, and modern web architecture.
• Experience designing and building production systems rather than just implementing well-defined tickets.
• Strong product sense - you think about the experience from the customer's perspective, not just whether the code works.
• Ability to reason about edge cases, failure modes, concurrency, and real-world operational constraints.
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership from problem definition through production.
• Good written communication and the ability to explain technical decisions clearly.

Bonus Points

• Experience with AWS, PostgreSQL, Next.js, automated testing, CI/CD, observability, or EdTech products is useful but not required.
• Above all, we're looking for engineers who combine strong technical fundamentals, product thinking, ownership, and good judgment.
