We are hiring a Backend Developer to build the parts users never see and always depend on.
Employment: Full-time · Location: TechAbout HQ - DHA Lahore
What you will work on
- Design APIs and data models for our marketplace and booking products.
- Work on payments, escrow and payout logic on BlogReach where correctness matters.
- Make slow things fast with profiling rather than intuition.
- Write the validation that stops bad data entering in the first place.
What we are looking for
- Strong server-side language skills (Python or PHP) and real SQL.
- Experience designing APIs other people have to consume.
- Understanding of transactions, race conditions and idempotency.
- Care about failure paths, not just the success case.
How we hire
Online-first. Most candidates complete an application review, an email screening, a practical assessment on one of our real products, and a video interview — all remotely. We only ask you to come in when the role genuinely needs it. You will be told which stage you are at and what happens next at every step.
