Job Description - Backend Engineer


Life at Plume


At Plume, we believe that technology isn't about moving faster, it's about making life’s moments better. Which is why we’ve built the world's first, and only, open and hardware-independent service delivery platform for smart homes, small businesses, enterprises, and beyond. Our SaaS platform uses WiFi, advanced AI, and machine learning to create the future of connected spaces—and human experiences—at massive scale.


We now deliver services to over 60 million locations globally and have managed over 3 billion devices on our platform. We’re expanding rapidly, pioneering a new category, and we achieved our Series F funding in just four years. Our customers include many of the world's largest Internet Service Providers (ISPs) who look to Plume to help them evolve their smart home offerings while gleaning insights from their own data. 


With a bias for action and a love for being trailblazers, the team at Plume embodies a combination of relentless curiosity and imaginative innovation. We challenge ourselves to think in ways that other companies don't, work to do what should be done (rather than what can), and if we can’t do it exceptionally well, we don’t do it. It’s how we've assembled a team of world-class builders, thinkers, and doers. And it’s how we’re reinventing what’s possible every day.


This is a work-from-office / In-Office role based in our Hyderabad, India location.


Responsibilities:



  • API Development: Design, implement, and maintain RESTful and gRPC APIs powering internal and external applications.

  • Cloud Microservices: Architect and deploy scalable microservices in AWS/GCP/Azure using Kubernetes and modern DevOps practices.

  • Data Pipelines: Build real-time and batch data pipelines, ensuring data accuracy, performance, and observability (EMR on EKS).

  • Collaboration: Partner with cross-functional squad members to deliver features end-to-end, from concept to production.

  • System Reliability: Optimize services for scalability, resilience, and high availability.

  • Engineering Excellence: Contribute to architecture discussions, enforce coding standards, and drive best practices in CI/CD, testing, and monitoring.

  • Security: Embed security and compliance into backend systems and data workflows.


Qualifications:



  • Strong proficiency in Scala, Go, or Java and Python (experience with multiple is a plus).

  • Proven experience with distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven architectures.

  • Fundamental understanding of computer networking (including Wi-Fi), operating system, and database

  • Hands-on expertise in cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker).

  • Familiarity with data engineering (ETL pipelines, real-time streaming with Kafka/Pulsar, batch processing frameworks).

  • Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB).

  • Solid knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, ELK).

  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to thrive in an agile, squad-based environment.


Nice To Have:



  • Functional programming experience in Scala.

  • Experience with caching layers, distributed storage, and message queues.

  • Familiarity with AI-powered developer tools such as ChatGPT, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or similar to boost productivity.

  • Contributions to open-source projects or personal projects showcasing backend innovation.


About Plume


As the creator of the only open, hardware-independent, cloud-controlled experience platform for ISPs and their subscribers, Plume partners with over 400 ISP customers, including some of the world’s largest such as Comcast, Charter, Liberty Global, and J:COM. 


Using OpenSync, the most widely supported open-source, silicon-to-cloud framework for smart spaces, Plume’s software-defined network allows ISPs to decouple their service offerings from hardware and rapidly curate and deliver new services over a multi-vendor, open-platform architecture.  


Plume is an equal opportunity workplace that maintains a continuing policy of nondiscrimination in all employment practices and decisions, ensuring equal employment opportunities for all qualified individuals without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, national origin, age, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, pregnancy, childbirth or related individual conditions, medical conditions (as defined by state law), military or veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state or local law.
