Software Engineer - Backend Engineer (India) at Alkira, Inc | chakrie

Requirements

B.S./M.S. (or equivalent) in CS, EE, or a related field, plus 2 years of software engineering experience.
A builder's instinct: you've taken something from zero to shipped before — and you're also comfortable inheriting, understanding, and improving an existing codebase.
AI-native workflow: you use tools like Claude Code / Cursor / Copilot daily and have a point of view on how to ship faster with AI.
Strong CS fundamentals and hands-on Java/Spring and Go, distributed systems, REST API design, DB schema design,
multithreading.
Linux/kernel fluency and comfort with container + Kubernetes deployment.
Security-first thinking for distributed, multi-tenant systems.
Product and customer empathy — you care about why a feature matters, not just how to build it.
Networking background (BGP, SD-WAN, overlays, cloud networking) is a strong plus.
Team player: able to work across teams of varying sizes that may be geographically distributed.
Ability to multitask and support multiple concurrent projects.
