A lot of a backend developer's week goes on things other people built. This position in Hyderabad involves a good amount of integration work — reading someone else's API documentation, handling the responses it actually returns rather than the ones it claims to, and containing the failure when an upstream service is down.
The rest is core backend engineering: designing scalable services, building and maintaining REST APIs, implementing business logic, working with databases, and handling authentication and authorisation.
The role suits someone two to four years in, comfortable enough with the fundamentals to be trusted with the messier parts. It is full-time and onsite.

- Design and develop scalable backend services.
- Build and maintain RESTful APIs.
- Implement business logic and application workflows.
- Work with relational and/or NoSQL databases.

- Integrate third-party APIs and services.
- Debug production and development issues.
- Write unit and integration tests.
- Participate in code reviews.

- 2-4 years of backend development experience.
- Strong knowledge of at least one backend programming language.
