Technical Lead/ Product Engineer

We’re hiring: Product Engineering Lead \| GoPaisa

Over the last 10+ years, GoPaisa has been built carefully as a profitable, founder-led company designed to compound over decades. We're entering our next growth phase—scaling our payments platform toward $1B+ in annual transaction volume across payments, rewards, and financial services.

To lead this charge, we are hiring a hands-on technical leader who will report directly to the founders.

The Role \& Focus

This is a 50% hands-on engineering / 50% people leadership role. You will architect critical systems, remain close to the code, and lead a high-agency team.

Core Technology Stack \& Domain

• Primary Backend Stack: Node.js, distributed systems, reliable API design, and high-throughput cloud infrastructure.
• Fintech \& Payments Infrastructure: Transaction systems, reconciliation, settlements, exception handling, and external partner integrations.
• Databases \& Data Infrastructure: Production database engineering, telemetry, reporting, and analytics data pipelines.
• Risk \& Security: Real-time transaction monitoring, anomaly detection, risk intelligence, and fraud prevention engines.
• AI-Native Engineering: Leveraging AI deeply across software development—coding assistants, automated testing, smart code reviews, log analysis, and incident response.

What We’re Looking For (Must-Haves)

• 6–10 years of software engineering experience with strong backend, platform, or distributed-systems depth.
• Core Tech Stack: Strong, current hands-on development experience in Node.js.
• Fintech Experience (Must): Proven background building and scaling fintech, payments, or high-volume transactional platforms.
• Team Handling Experience (Must): Demonstrated track record of directly managing, mentoring, and hiring engineers, conducting code reviews, and raising execution standards.
• AI-First Mindset: Passion for embedding AI into core engineering workflows to drive velocity and operating leverage.
• High Ownership: Direct founder collaboration with the ambition to scale into broader engineering leadership.
