Vice President of Software Engineering

🚀 We’re Hiring: VP of Engineering | Full Stack | AI & API Infrastructure

🌎 Location: Bangalore

💼 Experience: Senior Engineering Leadership with strong Full Stack expertise

🏢 Role Type: Startup | Hands-on Leadership

About the Opportunity

Lead engineering for a high-scale developer marketplace already handling 7–9 billion API calls per month and serving millions of developers.

This is not a zero-to-one experiment. You’ll take ownership of a live, mission-critical platform with engineering challenges comparable to Stripe- and Twilio-level infrastructure.

As AI agents become first-class consumers of APIs, you’ll help shape the future of how agents discover, access, call, and pay for APIs across the open internet.

🔧 What You’ll Do

• Lead architecture, design, development, and scaling of a high-performance API platform.
• Stay deeply hands-on with full-stack engineering, contributing approximately 60% of your time to technical execution.
• Spend approximately 40% of your time building, mentoring, and managing the engineering team.
• Own system reliability, scalability, performance, security, and infrastructure economics.
• Drive end-to-end product engineering across backend services, APIs, frontend applications, and distributed systems.
• Build and evolve the platform for the next generation of AI-agent-driven API consumption.
• Establish engineering best practices, technical roadmaps, and a culture of ownership and execution.✅ What We’re Looking For
• Strong experience in Full Stack Engineering, with deep expertise in backend architecture and scalable distributed systems.
• Proven experience designing, building, and operating high-traffic production platforms.
• Strong proficiency in modern backend technologies, API development, databases, cloud infrastructure, and frontend frameworks.
• Experience with system design, microservices, performance optimization, observability, and production reliability.
• Ability to move seamlessly between writing production code, making architectural decisions, and leading engineering teams.
• Startup mindset with a strong bias toward execution, ownership, and building scalable products.
• Experience leading engineering teams while remaining technically hands-on.🌟 Why This Opportunity?
• Lead a live platform operating at massive scale.
• Have direct ownership of architecture, reliability, and engineering economics.
• Build and shape a high-performing engineering team.
• Work at the intersection of APIs, developer infrastructure, and AI agents.
• Influence how the next generation of intelligent applications interacts with the open internet.
