Razorpay Software Pvt LtdJob Description
Forward Deployed Engineer
Razorpay is one of India’s leading full-stack financial technology companies, powering the way businesses move, manage, and grow money. Founded in 2014 by Harshil Mathur and Shashank Kumar with a simple vision - to simplify payments for Indian businesses - we’ve since grown into a fintech powerhouse driving India’s digital payment revolution.
Razorpay powers millions of businesses with a smarter, scalable stack that goes beyond transactions to help them truly build and grow.
From building AI-native agentic payments, to AI-assisted fraud detection and real-time risk intelligence to automated reconciliation, smart payouts, and predictive financial insights, we are embedding intelligence across our stack to make money movement faster, safer, and more efficient. In close collaboration with ecosystem partners - including banks, networks, regulators - we are pioneering industry-first solutions that are shaping the next era of fintech
Across India, Singapore and Malaysia, our products span everything from seamless checkouts to payroll automation - powering a fintech ecosystem that’s redefining how money moves across Asia.
Today, that ecosystem supports everyone from early-stage startups to some of India’s largest enterprises, enabling them to accept, process, and disburse payments at scale while expanding into new ways of managing money more efficiently.
Our scale speaks volumes: Razorpay processes $180+ billion in annualized transactions, powering leading businesses like Airbnb, Facebook, WhatsApp, Airtel, CRED, BookmyShow, Zomato, Swiggy, Lenskart, Mirae Asset Capital markets, Indian Oil, National Pension Scheme - and over 100 of India’s unicorns. With strong roots in India and growing operations in Southeast Asia, we are shaping the next chapter of financial technology across the region.
We are backed by global investors including GIC, Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia Capital India & SEA), Tiger Global, Ribbit Capital, Matrix Partners, MasterCard, and Salesforce Ventures, having raised over $740 million to date. Strategic acquisitions - including Ezetap (POS and offline payments), Curlec (Malaysia expansion), BillMe (digital invoicing), and POP (rewards-first UPI) - along with earlier moves in fraud prevention, payroll, and lending, have further strengthened our platform and widened our footprint across Asia.
But what truly sets Razorpay apart is our culture. At Razorpay, ownership is our oxygen - you own what you build, with no micromanagement or red tape, just the runway to make your ideas fly. Learning is a lifestyle - if you’re curious, you’ll feel at home here. People > Pedigree - we hire for attitude, hustle, and hunger more than degrees. Transparency thrives over titles - this is where interns question CXOs and CXOs say “thank you.” Guided by our values of Customer First, Autonomy & Ownership, Agility with Integrity, Transparency, Challenging the status quo and a strong belief that Razorpay grows with Razors, you’ll be part of a 3000+ strong team building not just products, but the financial infrastructure of the future.
THE ROLE
You will embed directly with Razorpay's enterprise and high-growth merchants — sitting with their engineering teams, owning technical deployments from first discovery through go-live, and making Razorpay the deepest platform in their stack.
This is not a pre-sales role. It is not a support role. It is not solutions architecture. You write production code, you sit with the merchant's team to understand how their workflows actually break, and you own the outcome end-to-end.
You will work across two tracks depending on the account:
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
- Run pre-sale technical discovery — scope integration complexity, assess agentic fit, and co-author the deployment plan that goes into the proposal
- Sit with merchant engineering teams and own the full integration lifecycle from architecture to go-live
- Design and build agent workflows on Agent Studio — tool bindings, MCP integrations, orchestration pipelines, evals, and human approval flows
- Debug production issues across Razorpay systems, merchant systems, external tools, and model behaviour
- Monitor deployed agents post-live — first responder during the 15–30 day hypercare period post go-live
- Contribute deployment blueprints to the shared knowledge base every quarter — if it's not documented, it didn't happen
- Feed structured product feedback to the respective PMs — field intelligence is half the job
MUST HAVE
- 3–10 years of hands-on software engineering — shipped production code and debugged it in live customer environments
- Strong Python or Node.js; comfortable reading unfamiliar code and writing useful glue quickly
- Direct experience working with external customers or merchant technical teams — can run a discovery call, manage expectations, and close ambiguity without hand-holding
- Solid grounding in APIs, webhooks, auth, data pipelines, logs, and production systems
- Practical experience with LLM/agentic frameworks — LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, MCP, or similar. Hands-on counts, not just awareness
