## Job description

About Easyship:

Easyship is one of the world's leading multi-carrier shipping software, built to make global eCommerce borderless. Since 2014, we've been on a mission to democratize logistics by removing the "black box" of international shipping costs and complexities. Trusted by over 100,000 brands, our platform provides a single "mission control" for global trade, offering access to 550+ courier services across 200+ destinations.

We are an award-winning, global team (Forbes 30 Under 30, TechInAsia's Best Startup) with offices in London, New York, Hong Kong, and beyond. We're growing fast, we value transparency, and we genuinely enjoy building the infrastructure that powers modern commerce. If you're ready to solve complex problems at scale, we'd love to have you join us.

Who We're Looking For:

Easyship is a shipping technology platform that connects sellers and marketplaces to couriers. Beyond that, we build and execute customised end-to-end shipping solutions for clients worldwide — combining global freight forwarding, last-mile delivery, and everything in between.

We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer — Ruby on Rails to build and maintain the back-end of our web applications, including scaling our RESTful API, optimising response times, and creating new products that integrate with our existing platform. Our tech stack is Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis / Sidekiq, RabbitMQ, ElasticSearch, Git / GitHub, Docker / K8s / GCP.

At Easyship, we believe the next generation of engineering excellence is defined by the ability to blend deep tech stack expertise with AI-augmented workflows. You aren't just a coder; you are an engineer who uses AI (Copilot, Cursor, LLMs) as a force multiplier to deliver high-quality, scalable systems at 2x the speed.

What you additionally need to know: This is a full-time, onsite role based in our Bengaluru (MG Road) office. The role follows UK collaboration hours (11:00 AM–8:00 PM IST) to support seamless cross-regional execution.

What You'll Be Responsible For:

- Participate in the entire product life cycle
- Drive the development of new products internally
- Leverage AI-assisted tools to accelerate development, debugging, and code generation
- Work closely with engineering leadership and the product team to establish priorities and manage our technical roadmap
- Provide training and support to internal teams
- Mentor junior developers
- Bring new development ideas to benefit the business and grow your own skills

You Might Be a Good Fit If…

- 7+ years of strong experience with Ruby on Rails and SQL databases
- Strong experience building highly scalable systems
- Writes clean, reusable, and maintainable code
- Ability to hold the team to high standards for security and data privacy practices
- Familiar with Git and Git flow; comfortable with modern project management tools
- Familiarity with containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes) and cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure)
- A background working in product teams at startups

If you're excited about this role but don't meet every requirement, we'd still love to hear from you.

What We Bring to the Table as an Employer:

- Generous remuneration and stock units
- Comprehensive health coverage
- We reimburse gym and wellness expenses so you can invest in your health
- Zomato digital meal credits and a pantry full of wholesome snacks to keep you fuelled through the workday
- The freedom to 'Work from Anywhere' for 4 weeks in a year
- Generous vacation policy, plus duvet days and mental health days to truly recharge

How we value inclusion in our recruitment practices:

Easyship is an equal opportunity employer. We make all employment decisions — recruiting, hiring, pay, benefits, training, promotion, leave, and separation — based on qualifications, merit, and business needs. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, age, disability, national or ethnic origin, veteran or military status, citizenship, or any other characteristic protected by law.

Headquartered in London with offices in New York, Hong Kong, Bangalore, Singapore, Melbourne, Toronto, and Taipei – our team is global and growing. We encourage you to apply if a challenge excites you. Come and join the Easyship team!

Don't take it from us, take it from Cristina. One of our longest serving backend engineers.
