About Us
SC is a Series A fashion quick-commerce startup based in Bangalore, delivering curated fashion and lifestyle products in under 60 minutes. Backed by Nexus Venture Partners and Lightspeed. Lean team, high ownership, low process overhead, strong bias for execution.
Role Overview
Own critical backend systems powering SC’s 60-minute fashion delivery — order orchestration, inventory, payments, and logistics. You’ll build Django services on AWS/PostgreSQL that handle real-time demand, hyperlocal fulfillment, and high-throughput order pipelines.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and own backend services end-to-end using Django/DRF, PostgreSQL, and AWS (ECS, RDS, ElastiCache, SQS).
- Build real-time order orchestration — placement, payment capture, inventory reservation, dark store dispatch, and delivery tracking.
- Architect low-latency APIs powering the consumer app, rider app, and internal ops dashboards.
- Integrate third-party services: payment gateways, logistics partners, notification providers, and brand catalogue feeds.
- Drive engineering quality — code reviews, testing, observability (Sentry, CloudWatch), and mentoring junior engineers.
Required Qualifications
- 6+ years backend experience, 3+ years with Django in production.
- Deep PostgreSQL expertise — query optimisation, indexing, partitioning, migrations.
- Strong AWS hands-on: RDS, ElastiCache, SQS/SNS, ECS/EC2, S3, VPC.
- Experience with caching (Redis), async tasks (Celery), and event-driven patterns.
- Prior e-commerce, logistics, or marketplace backend experience preferred.
What We Offer
- High-ownership engineering culture with direct product impact.
- Competitive salary and meaningful equity.
- Category-defining problems in quick commerce and fashion tech.
- Learning and development budget.
