About Us:
We are hiring for a pre seed funded startup called Zeromoblt (), a high-agency Hyderabad-based startup revolutionizing student transportation with lean, intelligent tech stacks.
Our mission: architect world-class systems from scratch—fast, scalable, and algorithmically sharp—using Kotlin, React, AWS (EC2, IoT, IAM), Google Maps, and multi-cloud setups. Stealth mode operations mean you're building 0→1 products with founders, not fixing tickets.
What You'll Do
– Lead end-to-end ownership of complex systems: design, build, deploy, monitor, and iterate at scale.
– Architect high-performance backends in Kotlin (or JVM langs) that handle real-time routing and IoT data.
– Craft scalable React UIs that power ops dashboards and parent-facing apps.
– Drive cloud decisions across AWS, Azure/GCP—optimising costs for our bootstrap runway.
– Apply DSA/system design to solve hard problems like dynamic route op
