Open role Chennai, India · On-site · Full-time

Software Engineer — Full-Stack

Experience: 2–3 years  ·  Reports to: Engineering Lead

You'll work across the full stack on client engagements in financial technology — backend services in Python, cloud infrastructure on AWS, and frontend delivery in React and TypeScript. Expect direct mentorship and a clear path to owning larger pieces of work as you ramp up.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain backend services in Python across client engagements
  • Design, deploy, and operate cloud infrastructure on AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB, ECS, API Gateway)
  • Build frontend applications with React and TypeScript
  • Contribute to backtesting pipelines and data-research tooling for financial-markets clients
  • Work directly with the engineering lead on architecture, design, and code review
  • Write tests and maintain code quality across the codebase

What we're looking for

  • 2+ years of production Python experience, comfortable with type hints and testing
  • Hands-on experience with core AWS services — Lambda, DynamoDB, ECS/Fargate, API Gateway, IAM
  • 1+ year building single-page applications with React and TypeScript
  • Strong CSS fundamentals and experience with a utility-first framework (e.g. TailwindCSS)
  • Comfortable designing and consuming REST APIs
  • Proficient with Git workflows, code review, and CI/CD basics

Nice to have

  • Exposure to financial markets or fintech products
  • Experience with Docker and containerized deployments
  • Familiarity with data pipelines, backtesting, or quantitative research tooling
  • Experience with event-driven architectures (queues, schedulers, workflow orchestration)

What we offer

  • Full ownership of features end-to-end, not just tickets
  • Direct mentorship and code review from the engineering lead — minimal hierarchy
  • Real exposure to financial-markets client work across engineering, backtesting, and research
  • A modern stack with no legacy debt to maintain
