The role

Own the architecture of the systems clients depend on most: ERP integrations, data platforms and agentic automation. You decide how they are built, then stay close enough to the code to be believed.

You mentor senior engineers, review designs before they harden, and take the decisions nobody else wants to own.

02

Requirements

  • Twelve or more years building and running production systems, with several years as the lead engineer on a platform
  • Deep, current skill in at least one backend stack and strong judgement across data, cloud and security
  • A record of designs that survived contact with real load and real clients
  • Clear written communication: design docs people actually read
03

Nice to have

  • Experience with SAP, Odoo or other large ERP landscapes
  • Open-source maintainership or published technical writing
04

Compensation

₹42,00,000 – ₹70,00,000 per year. Fixed pay shown; variable pay and benefits are additional where the role has them. Salaries are negotiable based on experience.

Skip the theatre.

Resume, a short note, and anything that shows how you think. Specifics beat adjectives.

  • Show something you built, not something you managed.
  • Scale, constraints, and trade-offs land better than adjectives.
  • A short note reads better than a long one.
