About the Role & Team:
We are building to accelerate to 10x. That scale has UC doing 10M services monthly, a
single-day peak of 500k services, and a highly trained base of 200k service professionals.
The bedrock behind accelerating that scale and innovation is Tech First. This means a world
where steady state requires zero people in the organization, where all processes (internal or for
customers/partners) are autonomous via code, where tech is embedded into every way of
decision making, and where tech allows a higher power of compounding.
The top levers for tech to lead in the next 2-3 years are:
● Redefining Retail – customer centric, category nuanced retail experience
● Excellence In Experience – consistency in delivering a service
● Digital Supply Creation – digitized creation of highly skilled, loyal supply base
● Technology Driven Rituals- make human powered decision making, operations
redundant through tech
What you’ll do:
● Work on complex architectural problems.
● Think about abstractions, systems and services and write high quality code.
● Have an understanding of loopholes in current systems/architecture which can
potentially break in future and push towards solving them with other stakeholders.
● Think through complex architecture to build robust platforms to serve together all the
categories and flows, solve for scale and work on internally built services to cater to our
growing needs.
What we’ll need:
● 0-2 years of experience in the industry solving complex problems from scratch and
having a graduate/post-graduate degree from top-tier universities.
● Hustle – freshers with a strong bias for action and intent to build for scale and impact
● Knowledge and experience of some backend frameworks
● Bold and Brilliant – Ownership and problem solving skills
● Create and Curate – Demonstrated design sensibilities
● Ability to build scalable, sustainable, reliable and secure products based on past
experience.
● Ability to bring new practices, architectural choices and new initiatives onto the table to
make the overall tech stack more robust.
● History and familiarity with server side architecture based on APIs, databases,
infrastructure and systems.
● Ability to own the technical road map for systems/components.
What can you expect:
● A great work environment with massive ownership and growth opportunities – we hire
folks for a career opportunity, not just the role.
● Energy and hustle of a startup with processes and depth of a big organization
● Expect to work with people you can learn from and are invested in your growth
