What You Will Impact

You will be directly owning and working on modules that will be or are already used in production. These modules are built for scale, and seeing something you worked on scaling to cater to so many users is amazing! You will be exposed to an array of technologies used within BharatX - including but not limited to SQL and NoSQL databases, message brokers, and HTTP servers. As a backend developer, you would be directly working on one or more of:
  • Production server apps and systems that affect all our customers.
  • Realisation of algorithms connecting different data pipelines.
  • Infrastructure deployments that we use to support our products and services.
  • Integrations with third-party service providers.
  • Existing systems’ optimizations or redesign for better scale and stability.
What You Will Learn

How to get stuff done! You will solve real-world challenges that no experience or training can help you. Only your grit and passion for solving the problem will help you figure out how to deal with them. You will learn to deploy in scale that will affect millions in multiple ways - be it underwriting algorithms, APIs or databases.
