About the Role:

At CleverTap, we're building the systems that power real-time, data-driven customer engagement at a massive scale - and we're looking for a Staff Backend Engineer to help us take it even further. This isn't just about writing great code (though you'll do plenty of that) — it's about shaping the architecture, driving technical direction, and solving some of the toughest engineering challenges in distributed computing, data processing, and large-scale platform design.

What will you do:

  • You'll work on high-impact projects that demand innovation across multiple domains: large-scale data retrieval and analytics, security and privacy, performance optimization, and fault-tolerant systems.

  • From collaborating with product managers to partnering with QA, designers, and fellow engineers, you'll be involved end-to-end: designing, building, deploying, and optimizing products that sit at the heart of the CleverTap Platform.

  • If you thrive on tackling complex problems, making architectural decisions that stand the test of time, and pushing technology forward, this role is your next challenge.

What are we looking for?

Must have:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

  • 5–10 years of experience in backend development, with a strong track record in designing, developing, testing, and deploying large-scale applications using Java.

  • Solid understanding of data structures, object-oriented programming (OOP) principles, and core Java concepts.

  • Strong organizational and time-management skills, with the ability to prioritize effectively.

Proven ability to meet deadlines and deliver high-quality releases.

Good to have:

  • Practical experience with MongoDB, Redis, and AWS.

  • Familiarity with frontend technologies such as JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, and frameworks like

Measures of Success:

  • Building backend systems that scale reliably under high load, with clean, maintainable, and defect-free code that aligns with product and performance requirements.

  • Raising the overall quality of the codebase by applying best practices — from thorough testing and high code coverage to proactive technical debt reduction — ensuring long-term maintainability.

  • Rapidly identifying and resolving production issues, including complex challenges like memory leaks and performance bottlenecks, to keep systems stable and performant.

Who will you report to: Team Lead - Backend Engineer

  • Contribute to a product backed by 11 technology patents, showcasing industry-leading innovation.
