As a series B startup with a global presence, we offer a supportive and inclusive culture where you can grow alongside a mission-driven team.

What is this role?

We are seeking a Mid-Level Backend Engineer to join our team on a full-time basis. This is a hybrid position based in India, requiring you to work from the office at least three days per week.
