What’s Next

About Us

At 1% Club, we’re on a mission to build India’s most trusted wealth-tech platform, one that doesn’t just stop at financial products, but brings education, advisory, and execution together in a way no one else has.

In less than two years, we’ve managed to launch and scale our EdTech vertical, secure our RIA SEBI license, and build an 8M+ strong online following of India’s English-speaking middle class.

We’ve done all of this with industry-level low CACs, strong brand love, and consumer trust, while staying profitable.

We are backed by Gruhas, a fund by Zerodha’s Nikhil Kamath and Puzzolana Group’s Abhijeet Pai.

What’s Next

We’re Now Entering Our Most Exciting Chapter Yet, Where The Foundations We’ve Built Start Compounding Into Real Scale. Our Next Phase Is Anchored Around Three Core Pillars

• EdTech – Expanding our financial education ecosystem through online and offline initiatives. We’re making finance simple, accessible, and actionable for millions of Indians.
• Advisory – Democratising high-quality financial advice. From first-time earners to high-income families, we’re reimagining how India accesses unbiased financial guidance.
• AI Co-pilot for Money – Building India’s most seamless AI-powered money dashboard. By helping users track and analyse all their finances in one place, we want to deliver powerful insights and make financial independence truly actionable.

This is the journey from being a fast-growing EdTech to becoming India’s most trusted Wealth-tech platform. The goal isn’t just to add more users, but to build products that people genuinely love, recommend, and can’t imagine living without.

Why Join Us

Our best learnings came from doing zero-to-one journeys of building some great products out there. Hence, we truly understand the impact of joining a team from an early stage and growing with it.

We’re at an early but exciting stage, where every line of code, every design, and every idea directly shapes the future of how Indians think about money.

What will you do?

You’ll be working on the core systems behind a platform that’s redefining how millions of Indians manage their money, with real-time applications, AI copilots, and blazing-fast apps.

You’ll have end-to-end ownership of features, working directly with the CTO and founding team to take ideas from whiteboard to production.

We care less about what stack you’ve used and more about how you think. You should be fluid across tech, know the “why” behind every decision, and treat speed and stability like religion. If you can write clean code, debug production like a ninja, and nerd out on system-level optimization, we’d love to have you.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain robust microservices in GoLang, with clean abstractions, high reliability, and readiness for scale.
• Mentor junior engineers, review code, and help maintain a high bar for technical excellence.
• Work closely with Product Managers, Designers & Backend Engineers to deliver seamless user experiences.
• Break down complex user problems into simple, scalable backend solutions.
• Own entire features end to end, taking responsibility for coding, unit testing, bug fixing & documentation.
• Participate in architectural discussions, contribute to the tech roadmap, and drive technical strategy.

You’ll be a great fit if you have

• 2–4 years of experience in a Backend SDE role, preferably in a fintech company.
• Strong proficiency in GoLang and experience with other programming languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript.
• Familiarity with DevOps tools and practices such as CI/CD pipelines, familiarity with AWS.
• Ownership and obsession with the product.
• Willingness to learn and adapt to new technologies and tools.

Bonus points

• You can use AI to automate grunt work and 10x your output
• You have a good eye for details
• You think like a product owner, not just an engineer
• You have worked at a FinTech before

Perks and Benefits

• BYOS (Build Your Own Setup): Mac/Windows/Linux, iPad, Monitors - anything you need to work comfortably.
• Work hard, Party harder: Company offsite, team lunch/dinner, game nights, and day outings are a few of the many things you’ll experience if you work out of the Bengaluru office.
• Highly competitive salary: We offer above-market salary & equity packages.
