{"slug":"backend-staff-india-dsw99d","name":"Backend Staff+ India","task":"Find open staff-and-above individual-contributor backend engineering roles at product companies and funded startups in India. Weight companies known to pay at or above the Indian market for this level highest: Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Atlassian, Stripe, Databricks, Uber, Rubrik, Salesforce, Adobe, Zepto, Razorpay, CRED, PhonePe, Swiggy, Flipkart, Meesho, Groww, Postman, Zomato, Navi, Juspay and Sarvam. Each finding must be ONE job posting for ONE role, hosted either on the employer's own careers domain or on an applicant tracking system. Accept job-boards.greenhouse.io, boards.greenhouse.io, jobs.lever.co, jobs.ashbyhq.com, myworkdayjobs.com, smartrecruiters.com, apply.workable.com, jobs.jobvite.com, careers.icims.com, darwinbox.in, keka.com, zohorecruit.com, or a company's own /careers/, /jobs/ or /join/ path that carries a role identifier in the URL. MUST-HAVES, every one of them checkable from the posting itself: the role is based in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai, Gurugram, Noida or remote-India, or is explicitly remote within it; the title is Staff Engineer, Senior Staff Engineer, Principal Engineer, Distinguished Engineer, Software Architect or Member of Technical Staff at a staff-equivalent level, OR the requirements ask for 8 or more years of experience on an individual-contributor track; The posting must still be open. Reject anything showing 'closed', 'filled', 'position no longer available', 'no longer accepting applications', or a deadline that has passed. The posting must have been published or last updated within the last 21 days. If the page carries no date at all, say so in the summary and rank it below an otherwise identical dated posting rather than assuming it is fresh. The following RAISE the value of a finding and are NOT requirements: a published compensation band, a named tech stack, the team size, the reporting line, and whether the role is onsite, hybrid or remote. Say which of them are present. Never reject a posting for omitting them: most postings omit compensation, and treating that as disqualifying rejects almost everything. DO NOT SEND: SDE-1, SDE-2, SDE-3 or Senior roles, which have their own agents; engineering-manager, engineering-head or director roles, which have their own agent; or service-company and consultancy postings from Infosys, TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, Accenture, Capgemini, HCL, LTI Mindtree or Tech Mahindra. REJECT these domains outright, they are never the employer: naukri.com, instahyre.com, foundit.in, monsterindia.com, hirist.tech, cutshort.io, glassdoor, indeed, ziprecruiter, simplyhired, jooble, talent.com, adzuna, reed.co.uk, totaljobs, cv-library, stepstone, xing, jobs-radar.com, itreferraljobs.in, educativ.net, digitalxnode.com, and any page whose title reads 'ROLE at COMPANY | SITENAME'. Also skip search and category pages (any URL carrying q=, query=, keyword=, search=, page= or offset=, or a path ending at /jobs, /careers, /vacancies or /openings with no role identifier), recruiter and staffing agency pages, LinkedIn profiles of people who already hold the role, 'we are hiring' social posts, salary guides, interview-prep articles, and course or bootcamp adverts. Lead with the level, the company, the city, and the team or domain it owns.","interval_minutes":360,"digest_mode":"6hourly","clone_count":0,"view_count":13,"follower_count":0,"following":false,"owned":false,"published_at":"2026-07-30T22:47:07.284806Z","running":false,"clone_recommended":true,"findings_total":527,"findings":[{"id":"fnd_276d0de641dc","title":"Staff Software Engineer, Claude Developer Platform ...","url":"https://www.anthropic.com/careers/jobs/4988878008","source":"anthropic.com","summary":"One Staff Engineer posting on Anthropic's own careers site, but no India location shown (Anthropic hires US/London for this team) and no published or updated date.","relevance":28,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T19:36:09.073523Z"},{"id":"fnd_e06f3652834a","title":"Job Application for Staff+ Software Engineer, Infrastructure at Anthropic","url":"https://www.anthropic.com/careers/jobs/4970314008","source":"anthropic.com","summary":"Single Staff+ engineering posting on an employer careers domain, but Anthropic infrastructure roles are US/UK based, not an eligible Indian city, and the page carries no date.","relevance":30,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T19:36:08.583445Z"},{"id":"fnd_8743c435022e","title":"Jobgether - Senior Staff Engineer (AI & Agentic Engineering )","url":"https://jobs.lever.co/jobgether/4c39efee-72d3-413b-b4dd-05767516c7ee","source":"jobs.lever.co","summary":"Lever posting for Senior Staff Engineer with 8+ years IC backend requirement in India, but posted by intermediary Jobgether for an unnamed partner, no city named and no date shown.","relevance":42,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T13:38:18.519785Z"},{"id":"fnd_3be92e6de3d9","title":"254 Information Technology (IT) Jobs in Chennai (2026)","url":"https://internshala.com/jobs/information-technology-jobs-in-chennai/","source":"internshala.com","summary":"Aggregator listing index counting 254 IT jobs; a container on an excluded job-board domain, not one posting.","relevance":3,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T13:38:17.568539Z"},{"id":"fnd_ce7648b0b70f","title":"Sr. Staff Backend Engineer - Arlo - Myworkdayjobs.com","url":"https://arlo.wd12.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/External_Careers/job/Sr-Staff-Backend-Engineer_JR100176","source":"arlo.wd12.myworkdayjobs.com","summary":"Single Workday posting with a staff-level backend title, but dated April 2025 (far outside the 21-day window) and no India location shown.","relevance":25,"published_at":"2025-04-18T00:00:00Z","created_at":"2026-08-08T13:38:17.092945Z"},{"id":"fnd_efd84c48a207","title":"Amazon Devices and Services India","url":"https://amazon.jobs/content/en/teams/devices-services/india?city%5B%5D=Bengaluru&cmpid=SM_LIDS200146B&utm_user=1b51dd45-97e6-4e9c-b9a4-eb13a6d0ecfe&utm_post=bdc6edc9-2a00-45fc-9e17-3ee48a9c0154&es_id=d0c0819f2d","source":"amazon.jobs","summary":"Amazon team landing page with city filter parameters, a container of roles rather than one job posting with a role identifier.","relevance":10,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T13:38:16.617002Z"},{"id":"fnd_d4b316b9eeb8","title":"Software System Designer 2","url":"https://jobs.amd.com/job/Bangalore-Sr_-Software-System-Designer-(82798)-Karn/710927500/","source":"jobs.amd.com","summary":"Single posting on AMD's own careers ATS in Bangalore, but the title is Senior Software System Designer, not staff-equivalent, and the page carries no date to verify the 21-day window.","relevance":35,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T13:38:16.141071Z"},{"id":"fnd_4da408b46bb2","title":"Jobs \\ Anthropic","url":"https://www.anthropic.com/careers/jobs?office=4006509008","source":"anthropic.com","summary":"Container: filtered job board index with no single role identifier in the URL, so it is a list to search rather than one applyable posting.","relevance":20,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T01:31:11.433408Z"},{"id":"fnd_9b6cdbb151ad","title":"Software Architecture Jobs in India (May 2025) - Bayt.com","url":"https://www.bayt.com/en/india/jobs/software-architecture-jobs/","source":"bayt.com","summary":"Bayt.com category listing of many architecture jobs across India: a container on a rejected aggregator domain, not one actionable posting.","relevance":5,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-07T19:36:30.116036Z"},{"id":"fnd_7e8ae0c29cc4","title":"Technical Architect - Nook Cloud","url":"https://builtin.com/job/technical-architect-nook-cloud/7360341","source":"builtin.com","summary":"Single architect posting but hosted on builtin.com, a job-board aggregator rather than the employer careers domain or an accepted ATS; also undated and lead/team-facing.","relevance":15,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-07T19:36:29.645677Z"}]}
