Role Overview
We are looking for a skilled and motivated Mid-Level Backend Developer to join our Product Development team in Mumbai. In this full-time, on-site role, you will be crucial in designing, developing, and maintaining scalable and secure backend services for our core HR Tech applications. Your day-to-day work will involve complex coding, testing, debugging, and close collaboration with cross-functional teams to ensure the delivery of high-quality, impactful HR solutions.

Work closely with HR domain experts and product managers to translate complex HR requirements into technical specifications and features.
Ensure data security, privacy, and compliance (e.g., GDPR, local regulations) in handling sensitive employee and organizational data.
Write clean, testable, and reusable code following best practices (e.g., unit testing, static analysis, and adherence to PEP8).
Optimize database schemas and queries, specifically using PostgreSQL / MySQL, for performance and high scalability to handle large volumes of HR data.
Troubleshoot, debug, and enhance existing codebase, actively contributing a problem-solving mindset to system improvements.
Contribute to DevOps workflows including maintaining CI/CD pipelines using tools like Docker and GitHub Actions.

Proficiency in database management, specifically PostgreSQL / MySQL, including complex query writing and optimization skills.
Familiarity with distributed task queues and caching mechanisms using technologies like Redis / Celery.
Strong understanding of web security principles, including implementing authentication and authorization (e.g., OAuth2, JWT).
Practical experience with containerization technologies like Docker, version control (Git), and setting up/maintaining CI/CD pipelines.
Exposure to major cloud platforms (e.g., AWS / Azure / GCP).
Ability to write comprehensive unit tests and experience working within automated testing environments.
Preferred / Good-to-Have Skills
Experience with HR Tech, HRIS (Human Resources Information Systems), Talent Management, or Payroll platforms.
Knowledge of microservices architecture and/or event-driven systems.
Familiarity with full-text search engines like Elasticsearch / OpenSearch for advanced HR document and data indexing.
Exposure to integrating with third-party AI APIs or services, or experience with LLM/NLP models for capabilities like sentiment analysis or intelligent document processing.
