About Framna

At Framna, we partner with ambitious brands to create digital products that make a meaningful impact.

We work across the full product journey, from strategy and UX to engineering and long-term growth, combining technical expertise with a strong product mindset. Together with our partners, we build solutions that users rely on every day.

Our culture is built on trust, ownership, and fearless collaboration. We challenge ideas, support each other, and keep learning - openly sharing feedback, staying flexible in how we work, and approaching each other with empathy. Because the best products are created by teams that move forward together.

About the role & project

We are developing a next-generation biometric authentication platform safeguarding millions of transactions, engineering high-end backend services capable of real-time analysis at scale. As a Senior Backend Engineer (Node.js, TypeScript), you will hold full architectural ownership of mission-critical systems and directly shape the product.

While we foster an AI-driven delivery mindset, we place immense value on low-level engineering depth-knowing that true system resilience, performance, and bulletproof security demand a thorough understanding of what happens under the hood.

We meet regularly in the studio to stay connected, share perspectives, and keep the team energy strong.
