    Hi, this is Ranker — an AI screening assistant calling on behalf of the hiring team for the Senior Backend Engineer role. Do you have about four minutes?

  2. 00:07
    Candidate

    Yeah, I have a few minutes. Go ahead.

  3. 00:10
    Agent

    Quick note before we start: this call is being recorded and transcribed so a human recruiter can review it. You can ask me to stop at any time.

  4. 00:19
    Candidate

    That's fine.

  5. 00:21
    Agent

    Are you actively exploring new roles right now, or just open to hearing about them?

  6. 00:26
    Candidate

    I'm actively looking. I've been at Swiggy four years and I'm ready for the next step — ideally something with more system-design ownership.

  7. 00:39
    Agent

    Got it. What's your current notice period, and is it negotiable?

  8. 00:44
    Candidate

    It's 60 days on paper. I can probably bring it down to 45 with a buyout, but not much shorter than that.

  9. 00:56
    Agent

    Thanks. What total compensation are you targeting for your next role?

  10. 01:02
    Candidate

    I'm looking at sixty-five to seventy-five lakhs total — base plus stock. Open to a slightly lower base if the equity is meaningful.

  11. 01:18
    Agent

    Understood. The role is Bengaluru hybrid — three days on-site. Does that work, or would you need full remote?

  12. 01:27
    Candidate

    Three days on-site is fine. I'm already in Bengaluru and I actually prefer some office time.

  13. 01:39
    Agent

    Great. Last one — tell me about the largest production system you've owned end-to-end on the backend. Scale, stack, and your specific role.

  14. 01:50
    Candidate

    Sure. I lead the order-orchestration service at Swiggy. It's the service that takes a placed cart and fans it out to the restaurant, the delivery partner allocator, and the payments service. At peak it does about 18,000 RPS. The stack is Python with FastAPI, Postgres for the source of truth, Kafka for the fanout, and Temporal for the longer-running workflows.

  15. 02:32
    Candidate

    I own the on-call rotation for the four engineers on the team, I'm the primary reviewer on architecture changes, and I drove the migration from a synchronous fanout to the Temporal-based one over the last nine months.

  16. 02:58
    Agent

    That's super helpful. Thanks — a recruiter from the team will review this and reach out within two working days if there's a fit. Have a good one.

  17. 03:12
    Candidate

    Thanks, you too.
