Head - Engineering - IIT/NIT/BITS

Core Technical Requirements:

• Engineering Focus: We are looking for a specialist in Backend/Application delivery and API scaling..
• While the candidate must understand data infrastructure, profiles that are primarily "Data Engineering" or "Data Science" focused will not be a fit.
• Tech Stack (MERN): Our current stack is Mongo, Express, React, and Node.
• We have a strong preference for candidates with deep Node.js expertise over Java or PHP.
• The candidate must be capable of leading complex system design, microservices architecture, and cloud-native strategies (AWS/GCP).
• Education: Must hold a degree in Computer Science (not IT or related fields) from a Tier-1 / Top-tier college (IIT, NIT, BITS, etc.).
• Experience Tenure: A minimum of 12-15 years of professional experience.
• Proven Scale: We are specifically looking for candidates who have worked in growth-stage startups
• Culture Fit: We need someone who has seen the "middle-to-large" scale transition, rather than someone from a very early-stage startup or a rigid corporate environment
