About Fam (previously FamPay) Fam is India's first payments app for everyone above 11. FamApp helps make online and offline payments through UPI and FamCard. We are on a mission to raise a new, financially aware generation, and drive 250 million+ young users in India to kickstart their financial journey super early in their life. We're reimagining how the next generation experiences fintech-going beyond payments to build a lifestyle brand that blends money, identity, and everyday experiences into one seamless, intuitive journey. Founded in 2019 by IIT Roorkee alumni, Fam is backed by some of the most respected investors around the world like Elevation Capital, Y-Combinator, Peak XV (Sequoia Capital) India, Venture Highway, Global Founder's Capital and the likes of Kunal Shah, Amrish Rao as angel investors. We're looking for a strong software engineer with an infrastructure mindset to build reusable platform services and engineering primitives that power product development across the company. This role is focused on designing and building foundational capabilities such as rate limiting, distributed locking, configuration management, feature flags, service discovery, and other shared platform services that can be adopted by multiple engineering teams. This is not a traditional DevOps or operations role. Rather than operating large-scale production systems day-to-day, you'll be responsible for building robust, scalable, and extensible platform abstractions that enable engineers to move faster and build reliable products. You'll work on complex distributed systems problems, design clean APIs and libraries, and ensure platform services can be confidently validated through thoughtful testing, failure simulation, and scalability verification. Must Haves 5-8 years of software engineering experience with strong backend development fundamentals. Strong proficiency in Go or Python, with experience building production-grade backend systems, frameworks, or internal platforms. Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts including concurrency, consistency, fault tolerance, caching, rate limiting, locking, and service coordination. Experience designing reusable libraries, services, or infrastructure abstractions consumed by multiple engineering teams. Strong software design skills with emphasis on maintainability, extensibility, and clean API design. Experience writing comprehensive unit, integration, and system-level test suites. Ability to reason about edge cases, failure scenarios, race conditions, and system correctness. Familiarity with cloud-native architectures, containerized environments, and modern engineering tooling. Strong debugging, problem-solving, and system design capabilities. Excellent collaboration and communication skills On the Job Responsibilities Platform Services Development Design and build reusable platform services and infrastructure primitives that can be adopted across multiple engineering teams. System Design Architect scalable, reliable, and extensible systems with well-defined interfaces, operational simplicity, and long-term maintainability. Engineering Foundations Develop shared libraries, SDKs, APIs, and platform abstractions that reduce duplication and improve engineering velocity across the organization. Reliability & Correctness Design systems with failure handling, fault tolerance, concurrency safety, and operational resilience built in from the start. Validation & Testing Build comprehensive test strategies to validate scalability, correctness, and reliability through stress testing, fault injection, simulation, and automated verification. Technical Ownership Own platform components end-to-end, from design and implementation to adoption, observability, and long-term evolution. Cross-Team Collaboration Partner closely with application and infrastructure teams to understand platform needs and drive adoption of shared services. Continuous Improvement Identify opportunities to simplify engineering workflows, improve developer productivity, and enhance platform capabilities through reusable solutions. Why Join Us Opportunity to build foundational platform capabilities that impact every engineering team. Solve challenging distributed systems and infrastructure problems. High ownership environment with the freedom to influence architecture and engineering standards. Work alongside strong engineers on products used at scale. Perks That Go Beyond the Paycheck . Relocation assistance to make your move seamless. . Free office meals (lunch & dinner). . Generous leave policy, including birthday leave, period leave, paternity and maternity support, and more. . Salary advance and loan policies for any financial help. . Quarterly rewards and recognition programs .

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
