About Setu

India's economic infrastructure needs a complete overhaul. Today our digital economy rides on rickety monolithic systems built in the mid-90s. It takes months to do a simple bank integration and launch a fintech product. This inefficiency cannot continue. If our economy has to grow, we need killer API infrastructure for financial services that rivals the likes of Stripe, and AWS. At Setu, we are fixing this for good, by abstracting away the complexity of working with legacy financial infrastructure and replacing it with a developer platform that offers clean, high-performance API bundles to embed finance into any application. So that developers can do what they do best, build amazing products that improve people's lives.

What we do

We are a micro-startup within Setu, owning the BBPS Stack — powering bill payments across leading banks and fintechs including (but not limited to) CRED, Axis Bank, Canara Bank, Fold, and INDMoney. Every month, transactions worth around ₹70,000 crore flow through our systems. We build for scale, reliability, and trust, ensuring that millions of customers experience seamless bill payments across India.

What you'll do

Take end-to-end ownership of features — from design and implementation to deployment and monitoring. Collaborate with product, design, and backend teams to deliver intuitive and performant user experiences. Lead frontend development efforts within the team, driving high-quality UI and UX implementations. Work with TypeScript and modern frontend frameworks (React, Next.js) to build robust, maintainable interfaces. Contribute to backend services written in Golang, and maintain a working understanding of backend systems. Follow and promote industry-standard engineering practices — clean code, testing, reviews, and CI/CD.

Our stack

Languages & frameworks: React, TypeScript, Next.js, Golang. Datastores: PostgreSQL, Redis, ClickHouse, DynamoDB. Messaging & queues: RabbitMQ, SQS. Infra & monitoring: AWS, Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry. CI/CD & tooling: GitLab, SST, Terraform, Docker.

What we're looking for

Strong hands-on experience with TypeScript and modern frontend frameworks. Some exposure to mobile app development (especially webview integrations). Comfortable working across the stack with a high level of ownership and bias for action. Solid understanding of engineering best practices and code quality. Passion for building performant, reliable, and scalable products that users love.
