About this Role
Business Systems Engineers build internal tools and systems that help teams work better.
They work across functions such as Sales, Marketing, RevOps, Customer Success, Finance, and the Founders' Office. The role involves understanding a business problem, deciding the right technical approach, building the solution, and owning it after launch.
The solution could be custom software, an integration, an automation, a data workflow, or an AI-powered tool.
Responsibilities
- Work with business teams to understand problems and identify opportunities for automation or better tooling.
- Build and maintain internal applications, integrations, automations, and workflows.
- Decide when to build custom software and when to use existing tools.
- Use AI tools and APIs where they are useful for solving the problem.
What We Look For
- Strong problem-solving ability and good business context.
- Ownership from problem definition through rollout and maintenance.
- Ability to turn loosely defined problems into working solutions.
- AI-native development: strong ability to use coding agents such as Claude Code or Codex to build significantly faster.
Must Have Skills
- Claude Code, Codex, or similar coding agents
- Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, or similar languages
- SQL and databases
- Git and standard development workflows
- LLM APIs and agent frameworks
We care less about how much code someone can write manually and more about whether they can use AI effectively to build reliable software quickly.
Why work at Hevo Data
- Culture: Data‑driven, engineering‑heavy, with a “day one” mentality. Strong commitment to open‑source (engineers encouraged to open‑source components).
- Work policy: Hybrid/office‑based – roles in San Francisco, Bengaluru, and Pune are listed as on‑site; some “Worldwide” remote options may exist but are not common.
- Notable perks: Competitive salaries (e.g., Senior Software Engineer ~INR 4.1M/year), strong employer rating (4.1/5 on LinkedIn) with high marks for compensation (4.2) and career growth (4.1).
- Engineering culture: Focus on low‑level data infrastructure, real‑time pipelines, and building scalable systems. Alumni have moved to top tech companies (Google, Confluent, Adobe, Fivetran).
