Retail trading platform serving 10M+ Indian investors with regulatory infrastructure at scale
Upstox operates a multi-asset retail trading platform (equities, mutual funds, IPOs) with compliance and risk infrastructure built into the core stack. The hiring mix — engineering, marketing, and legal nearly balanced — reflects a fintech-specific challenge: growth velocity requires product velocity, but regulatory risk demands parallel investment in controls. Active projects around design systems, compliance frameworks, and risk management signal a maturing operation moving from pure product to operational resilience.
Upstox is a retail trading and investment platform serving over 10 million Indian users across equities, mutual funds, and IPOs. The company operates with memberships on India's major exchanges (NSE, BSE, MCX, MCX-SX) and is headquartered in Mumbai. The technology stack spans React/Next.js on the frontend, Java/Spring on the backend, and Kubernetes-orchestrated infrastructure, with analytics powered by Tableau, Power BI, and Looker. Current focus spans both product (scalable design systems) and operational maturity (compliance frameworks, audit coordination, risk management).
Frontend: React, Next.js, Redux, Tailwind CSS. Backend: Java, Spring Framework, Python, R. Data: MySQL, Oracle, MongoDB, Redis. Infrastructure: Docker, Kubernetes. Analytics: Tableau, Power BI, Looker.
