What we're looking for
We’re looking for a driven and experienced Software Engineer to join the Tekunda team and contribute directly to the development of our core platforms, including Serpent, our DevOps platform for Salesforce teams, and AI RAGs for internal and client-facing automation.
This is more than a job, it’s a chance to shape the technical foundations of a growing startup. We want people who take pride in building scalable, thoughtful systems and enjoy the journey of turning bold ideas into production-grade tools. You’ll thrive here if you’re hands-on, adaptable, and ready to push limits in a fast-paced, ownership-driven environment.
What you'll do
- Design and implement scalable solutions using Python, React, Next.js, and supporting frameworks for Tekunda’s products and customers solutions.
- Build intuitive, performant frontend experiences using modern CSS frameworks like Tailwind, with strong attention to responsiveness and accessibility.
- Develop robust backend APIs and services in Python and TypeScript integrating external partners and internal data systems through RESTful interfaces.
- Contribute to our growing AI product line, including work on retrieval pipelines and context-rich LLM applications using RAG architectures.
- Own features end-to-end—from conception to deployment—across our infrastructure hosted on Azure
- Collaborate across teams to translate business and user needs into technical strategies that support rapid iteration without sacrificing quality, in a constantly evolving environment where the process is fluid and creative solutions are the norm
What you need
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent hands-on experience
- 4-8 years experience in product development or related role
- Proficiency in Agile development, Git-based workflows (e.g. GitFlow), and tools like Azure DevOps, Jira/Notion, CI/CD pipelines
- Strong experience building modern frontend applications with Next.js, React, and Tailwind, optimizing for seamless UX, responsive design, performance, and cross-device compatibility, with a focus on responsive design, and performance.
- Experience in developing robust web services and APIs from scratch and integrating with partners and suppliers (Typescript, Python, Java, REST, etc..)
- Experience working on containerised applications serving a large number of customers reliably (50k+ users)
- Outstanding problem solving, root cause analysis, and debugging skills
- Excellent communication, able to clearly explain ideas, trade-offs, and decisions to both technical and non-technical teammates
- Comfortable handling the pace, ownership, and ambiguity of a startup
- Languages: Fluency in English is required
What could be an advantage
- Salesforce Knowledge or Experience
- Experience building or supporting RAG-based AI products, or large-scale search/retrieval pipelines
- Data warehousing and Analytics (AWS S3 or similar)
- Passion for growing with a company long-term—you want to see the direct impact of your work, grow alongside a team, and be part of something from the ground up
