Swiggy has a team of highly pumped engineers who are focused on building discovery and delivery technology that will change the way people order food.

Most importantly you thrive on helping companies grow and feed off a fast-paced startup environment.

Previous experience in managing and providing technical leadership to engineering teams
Previous software development experience in both dynamically and statically typed languages—we primarily use Python, Java and NodeJS, but members of our team have backgrounds in a wide range of technologies
Proven ability in architecture and building scalable systems and teams
Experience with system monitoring and alerting for availability and performance
An eye for the right talent, and experience recruiting and hiring a team
8+ years related engineering experience, 4+ years in a leadership role

WHAT YOU’LL DO
Facilitate tight, compassionate collaboration between our Vendor, Catalogue, Operations, Delivery and Customer Success engineering teams.
Lead and manage an effective engineering function to support productive development and quality of life for the development team
Engage in 1 on 1s with development team members to understand their goals, concerns, struggles, and accomplishments.
Join pairs and groups of developers working on features to provide guidance and feedback.
Work with other engineering leads to define infrastructure needs and make architectural decisions
Build a development dream-team, including recruiting, hiring, mentoring and performance management
Work closely with the company leaders including the technical founder, product, operations, and CC to strategically build the platform

Our ideal candidate is hands-on and heart-open; meeting everyone with compassion and respect regardless of experience level while being willing to dive in and provide direct guidance and feedback on effective software design and development techniques.
