Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India Antal International Full time
Role: SDE III - Backend

Location: Chennai, India (Hybrid)

Experience: 5 – 8 years

Employment Type: Full-time

About the Role:

We're looking for a Senior Back end Engineer (SDE III) who can architect and build robust back end systems while also managing infrastructure and deployments. This is a hands-on role with full ownership—from API design and database performance to cloud infrastructure and CI/CD automation. You'll collaborate across product, design, and front end teams, while also mentoring junior developers and driving best practices.

Roles & Responsibilities:

- Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend services using a modern framework of your choice.
- Build well-structured APIs (REST or GraphQL) with robust authentication, authorization, and versioning.
- Define and evolve database schemas; optimize queries for performance and reliability.
- Use NoSQL databases (where required) for high-throughput or flexible data needs.
- Own infrastructure setup and manage deployments on cloud platforms—there is no separate DevOps team.
- Automate CI/CD workflows, containerize services using Docker, and maintain deployment pipelines.
- Ensure system performance, resilience, and observability through caching, queuing, and monitoring.
- Implement secure coding practices including data encryption, access controls, and input validation.
- Debug and troubleshoot issues across the stack—from database to API layer to production.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define integration contracts and delivery timelines.
- Mentor and guide junior engineers, participate in code reviews, and lead architecture discussions.

Required Skills & Experience:

- Strong hands-on experience with any modern backend framework (Node.js/ RoR, Python Django/Spring Boot, etc.).
- Proficiency in working with relational databases like PostgreSQL or MySQL—schema design, joins, and indexing.
- Experience with NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Redis) where applicable to the system design.
• Strong understanding of API design principles, security (OAuth2, JWT), and error handling strategies.
- Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS/ GCP, or Azure) and managing production environments.
- Proficient in containerization (Docker) and deployment automation using CI/CD pipelines.
- Experience with background processing, message queues, or event-driven systems.
- Familiarity with monitoring, logging, and alerting tools to ensure system health and reliability.
- Understanding of infrastructure management practices—basic scripting, access control, and environment setup.
- Understanding of the how different frontend / mobile components work and willingness to explore & work in them if required
- Ability to independently take features from concept to deployment with a focus on reliability and scalability.
- Experience mentoring developers and contributing to high-level technical decisions.
