REMOTE; INDIA): Forward Deployed Systems Engineer

Forward Deployed

Department:
Engineering

Experience:

3–5 years Employment:
Full-time (Remote)

We are looking for a hands‑on engineer with a strong combination of systems engineering, software development, infrastructure, and technical implementation experience.

The candidate will develop software components, configure and deploy systems, integrate applications, and resolve technical challenges across infrastructure and application layers. The role requires the ability to move between coding, system administration, deployment, and implementation based on business and technical requirements.

The ideal candidate is a practical problem‑solver who can work independently, understand complex technical environments, and take ownership of solutions from development through deployment and ongoing support.

• Configure, maintain, and troubleshoot Linux servers and application environments.
• Manage cloud infrastructure, virtual machines, networking, DNS, firewalls, and SSL/TLS configurations.
• Diagnose system‑level issues involving resource utilization, connectivity, permissions, and application availability.
• Maintain system reliability, performance, security, and operational stability.
• Automate routine administrative and infrastructure tasks wherever possible.

• Develop, maintain, and debug software using Python and/or JavaScript/Type Script.
• Build backend services, REST APIs, scripts, and automation utilities.
• Work with databases, including PostgreSQL and MySQL, for application development and troubleshooting.
• Understand existing codebases, identify defects, implement fixes, and develop new functionality.
• Write clean, maintainable, and testable code following established engineering practices.

• Deploy and manage applications using Docker and container‑based environments.
• Configure and maintain CI/CD pipelines for automated testing and deployment.
• Manage Git‑based development workflows, application configurations, environment variables, and deployment processes.
• Troubleshoot build failures, runtime errors, failed deployments, and service interruptions.
• Implement monitoring, logging, backup, recovery, and operational procedures.

• Translate business and operational requirements into practical technical solutions.
• Integrate software applications with third‑party APIs, databases, services, and external systems.
• Configure and deploy solutions across different infrastructure and operating environments.
• Work directly with stakeholders to understand requirements, investigate issues, and validate implementations.
• Adapt existing software and develop supporting components to address real‑world technical challenges.
• Collect implementation feedback and work with engineering teams to improve product functionality and reliability.

• Investigate and resolve issues across application, infrastructure, database, and network layers.
• Perform root‑cause analysis and implement sustainable corrective actions.
• Take ownership of technical issues from initial investigation through resolution and verification.
• Document system configurations, integrations, deployment procedures, and troubleshooting steps.
• Identify opportunities to improve automation, maintainability, security, and system performance.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 3–5 years of relevant experience in systems engineering, software development, infrastructure engineering, Dev Ops, or a combination of these disciplines.
• Strong hands‑on programming…
