SDE 2/3 (Full Stack)

Gushwork is building an Agent Operating System for small and mid-sized businesses around the world. It is  a modern business software where AI agents and humans work together. Business owners and leaders set the goals. They decide what each agent is allowed to do. Then they review the metric each agent delivers.
We started with an SEO agent. It owns one metric: organic leads. Once it ranks pages and brings in leads, it reports them back to the customer. We are now expanding into a Paid Ads agent and a Developer agent, each owning a metric the business cares about.
Our customers sell high-value goods and services and have fewer than 200 employees. Most of them are in industries that are not digitally native: manufacturers, industrial distributors, commercial services. They do not buy AI. They buy outcomes. Our job is to make agents reliable enough that a business owner can trust them with a number.
We are a team of about 90 people based in Bengaluru, backed by Lightspeed and SIG. If you want to want to help us build reliable agents that runs real businesses, we're excited to meet you!

what you'll do

• help build and ship next-generation features on our platform - ai-led content research, web page generation and ai-led content updates

• manage ui applications and infrastructure for backend services across ecs, step functions, lambdas, etc.

• keep systems performant, robust, and reliable through last-mile performance tuning, observability, and monitoring

• collaborate with product and design teams to understand problems and propose technical solutions

• write clear docs and runbooks for systems and processes

why we'll like you

fullstack ownership

you have shipped production features that span a modern web UI and backend APIs, not only one layer

you are comfortable owning a bet from ticket to production - scoping, implementation, monitoring, and iteration

you can hold UI, API contracts, data model, and deployment in mind at once without losing the customer outcome

product minded

you tie technical work to customer and roadmap impact - you ask when and why is unclear instead of guessing

you prefer small, reviewable PRs and measurable rollout over large surprise diffs

ai native

you have built or operated software where LLMs or AI pipelines are part of the product path - code generation, orchestration, evals, cost, testability and reliability included

you care about quality, cost, and failure modes of AI-assisted flows (latency, retries, evals, human-in-the-loop where needed)

fullstack capabilities

you have worked on Node.js and/or Python, Next and/or React in production at meaningful traffic or data volume

you are comfortable working on frontend, backend, and infrastructure across the stack, without reservations

you know how to maintain reliable systems while shipping fast - observability (e.g. Sentry), sane defaults, and pragmatic tradeoffs

you know how to build and ship ci/cd pipelines

craft

you treat and nurture your code like a piece of art, with the right balance of simplicity and complexity, without sacrificing speed

you have a high bias to action (run those POCs with cursor/claude code), and a low bias to over-engineering

human

you build trust with PMs, designers, and engineers - async updates in Slack, threads not @channel noise

you admit what you do not know and pull in the right owner (buddy, infra, security) early

you explain complex ideas clearly in writing - specs, PR descriptions, and docs

you hold 3+ years of experience

why you'll love us

• you'll be part of an early team at a fast-growing company, with a lot of impact

• you'll get to work with really smart and helpful people

• we constantly adopt the latest technologies and stay close to the latest ai innovations

• opportunity to influence the direction of the product and engineering culture

• flexible PTO policy

• unlimited ai usage

• plus cool swag, a stocked pantry, and other benefits
