We're hiring a Principal Architect at Swiggy (Bengaluru). You'd own the architecture behind ordering, checkout, pricing and fulfillment across Swiggy. That means 100k+ rps, millions of orders a day, and 99.95%+ uptime. You'd also need to let new business lines launch safely and fast. This is a hands-on IC role, not a people-management one. You will: → Own end-to-end architecture for multi-tenant ordering and fulfilment platforms → Lead high-severity incidents, then turn each fix into a lasting guardrail → Defend cost/performance trade-offs with real numbers, including consumer-facing performance → Build internal platforms that make every engineer more productive → Shape how applied ML and GenAI show up in the roadmap, as routine work and not a side project You might be a fit if you: Have 15+ years of experience and still write code (Java or Go preferred) Know Kafka, Redis, Kubernetes and databases at the internals level Have led real outages with real 5-Whys discipline Debate architecture openly, then commit fully once the call is made Have worked in food delivery, quick commerce, fintech or similar high-throughput businesses (a strong plus) Apply here: https://lnkd.in/gEmwp6hS
