*Labor Solutions (YC-style) | Senior Software Engineer | Remote (India) | Full-time*

We run a worker wellbeing and compliance platform used by global buyers and their supply chain sites across Asia. We're in the middle of a meaningful migration and platform buildout — you'd be joining at a point where architectural decisions matter and your fingerprints will be on the system for years.

*The work:* Our stack is Django + Python on the backend, dbt for data transformation, React/Next.js on web, and Expo/React Native for mobile. We run on AWS and Azure. Right now we're migrating legacy services while simultaneously shipping new features — so you'll need to be comfortable holding both in your head.

*What we're looking for:*

- Strong Python/Django chops — you've built and maintained production APIs, not just tutorials - Comfortable with React/Next.js; bonus if you've touched Expo or React Native - You understand what a data pipeline actually does (dbt experience a plus, but SQL fluency matters more) - Cloud experience on AWS or Azure — not ops, but enough to not be blocked - You care about code quality without being precious about it

*What this isn't:* This isn't a greenfield startup with infinite runway. It's a real product with real users, real technical debt, and a migration in progress. If that sounds like a problem, this role isn't for you. If that sounds like the most interesting kind of work, let's talk.

*Details:* - Fully remote, India-based - Senior Software Engineer title

Brandfetch (https://brandfetch.com) | Senior Backend Engineer | Remote | Full-time

Brandfetch is the internet’s canonical source for logos and brand assets. Think GitHub for brand identity: a brand repo that auto-indexes public assets, lets brand owners “commit” changes once, then propagates them—instantly and immutably—through CDNs, plugins, and APIs used by companies like Google, Canva, Salesforce, and soon … everywhere.

Problems you'd work on:

- Nightly curation bot auto-fixing outdated assets across 52M+ repos

- Next-gen ingestion and partition-key schema to leap from millions to billions of assets

- MCP server that exposes structured brand data to any AI agent or LLM, letting them fetch brand context on demand

- Vector search: surface any logo with ≥90% similarity in - Real-time metering that pings Stripe the instant a user tops their quota

Stack: Node.js, TypeScript, Python, AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB, CloudFront, S3, CloudFormation), Serverless.

You:

- 8+ years of experience in backend software development.

- Proficiency with AWS tools (Cloudformation, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Lambda, Cloudfront, S3, IAM, OpenSearch).

- Experience with building REST APIs.

- Ability to write well-documented, clean code.

- Experience with building DevOps pipelines using Serverless.

- Great communication skills (we work across multiple timezones and document everything).

- Experience with Machine Learning.

- Timezone: UTC+0 to UTC+9

Competitive salary + equity in a profitable, growing company.
