Paytm is India’s largest digital payments and financial services platform, leading the mobile QR revolution. We power millions of businesses and individuals, and we’re building scalable, resilient systems to serve half a billion Indians and beyond.
Here at Paytm, technology isn't just about keeping up, it's about
building the future
.
We believe the next generation of engineers must not only
scale systems to billions
but also
leverage AI and GPT tools
to accelerate innovation.
About the Role:
You will
design
,
build
,
scale, code
, and
optimize
systems that operate at
massive transaction volumes
(120 million transactions per day).
You’ll go deep into systems thinking, microservices, caching, messaging, and scalable data architectures.
You’ll also be encouraged to
actively use AI tools
(cursor, codium, copilot ,
Devin , augment
like GPT and others
) in your development workflow to
code faster, smarter, and better
.
What We're Looking For:
3 to 6 years of
backend development
experience in Java.
Real-world experience with
high-TPS, large-scale systems
(or a burning desire to master them).
Hands-on with
Kafka, Redis, RDBMS
, and
distributed microservices architectures
.
Exposure to
AWS Cloud Infrastructure
and cloud-native patterns.
Passion for
scaling
,
performance tuning
, and
system optimizations
.
Someone who loves to
experiment with AI tools(like GPT, Copilot, OpenHands
) for code generation, optimization, or workflow improvement.
You love writing clean, efficient, production-ready code — but you are even more obsessed with
system performance, uptime, and user impact
.
Why You Should Join Us:
You’ll
build at true scale
systems handling
millions of transactions per day
,
sub-100ms latencies
, and
five 9s availability
.
You’ll work in a team that is
serious about engineering
, no fluff, just
deep tech, deep impact
.
You’ll be encouraged to
use AI tools daily
— coding, debugging, testing — and even
invent new ways
of using AI in software development.
You’ll work alongside
engineers who love tech deeply
, and where innovation is the default expectation.
Paytm offers you a career —
not just a job
— to become a
next-gen tech leader
.
