Technical Lead

About Faym

Faym is India’s fastest-growing content commerce platform, enabling creators to drive ₹100Cr in monthly sales across platforms like Amazon, Myntra, Meesho, and more. With 20,000+ creators on the platform and 5 active brand programs, we’re scaling fast — and we’re looking for a rockstar Tech-lead to strengthen our system and enhance the scalability.

We’re live, scaling, and have PMF. Now we’re building the infra to support 100K+ concurrent storefronts, millions of webhooks, and real-time sales attribution across platforms like Instagram, YouTube & WhatsApp.

What You’ll Own

• Architect and scale microservices for catalog sync, order processing, and payment reconciliation
• Design fault-tolerant APIs and workflows to handle high-throughput commerce traffic
• Lead data design for systems like GMV tracking, attribution engines, and payout computation
• Own DevOps (we’re on AWS: EC2, S3, ALB, Route53, EFS) and optimize infra for speed and cost
• Setup logging, tracing, and monitoring (ELK/Grafana/Sentry—your pick)
• Ship clean, testable code in Node.js, Python, and mentor others to do the same
• Work with product to balance scope vs scalability—we don’t ship toys

Our Tech Stack

• Frontend: React, Tailwin, Flutter
• Backend: Node.js (Express), Python (for ML/data pipelines/Scripting/Scraping), MongoDB, Redis, Webhooks
• Infra: GCP, AWS (EC2, S3, CloudWatch, Route 53), Docker, Nginx, GitHub Actions
• Others: Streamlit (internal ops tools), WhatsApp APIs, Firebase, Cloudflare, MongoDB Atlas

What We’re Looking For

• 5–9 years of experience building distributed systems or product-heavy backends
• Strong in system design, data modeling, and performance tuning
• Proven ability to own large pieces of infrastructure and ship without hand-holding
• Experience mentoring engineers or leading pods/squads
• Comfort working across services, databases, and deployments
• You write code that others can trust, scale, and debug

Bonus: If You’ve Worked On

• Webhook-heavy or event-driven architectures
• Internal tooling & ops dashboards
• Real-time analytics or streaming systems (Kafka, SQS, etc.)
• Multi-tenant SaaS architecture
• Payments, order lifecycle systems, or e-commerce infra
• WhatsApp or Instagram automation flows

What You’ll Get

• Competitive salary + early equity (founding engineer-level)
• Complete autonomy to make architectural calls
• A team that moves fast, writes clean code, and ships weekly
• Zero micromanagement. Zero fluff. Just real problems and real impact.
• Build systems that directly power ₹crores in GMV every month
