Job description 🚀 Job Title: AI Engineer Company : Darwix AI Location : Gurgaon (On-site) Type : Full-Time Experience : 2-6 Years Level : Senior Level 🌐 About Darwix AI Darwix AI is one of India’s fastest-growing GenAI startups, revolutionizing the future of enterprise sales and customer engagement with real-time conversational intelligence. We are building a GenAI-powered agent-assist and pitch intelligence suite that captures, analyzes, and enhances every customer interaction—across voice, video, and chat—in real time. We serve leading enterprise clients across India, the UAE, and Southeast Asia and are backed by global VCs, top operators from Google, Salesforce, and McKinsey, and CXOs from the industry. This is your opportunity to join a high-caliber founding tech team solving frontier problems in real-time voice AI, multilingual transcription, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and fine-tuned LLMs at scale. 🧠 Role Overview As the AI Engineer , you will drive the development, deployment, and optimization of AI systems that power Darwix AI's real-time conversation intelligence platform. This includes voice-to-text transcription, speaker diarization, GenAI summarization, prompt engineering, knowledge retrieval, and real-time nudge delivery. You will lead a team of AI engineers and work closely with product managers, software architects, and data teams to ensure technical excellence, scalable architecture, and rapid iteration cycles. This is a high-ownership, hands-on leadership role where you will code, architect, and lead simultaneously. 🔧 Key Responsibilities 1. AI Architecture & Model Development Architect end-to-end AI pipelines for transcription, real-time inference, LLM integration, and vector-based retrieval. Build, fine-tune, and deploy STT models (Whisper, Wav2Vec2.0) and diarization systems for speaker separation. Implement GenAI pipelines using OpenAI, Gemini, LLaMA, Mistral, and other LLM APIs or open-source models. 2. Real-Time Voice AI System Development Design low-latency pipelines for capturing and processing audio in real-time across multi-lingual environments. Work on WebSocket-based bi-directional audio streaming, chunked inference, and result caching. Develop asynchronous, event-driven architectures for voice processing and decision-making. 3. RAG & Knowledge Graph Pipelines Create retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems that pull from structured and unstructured knowledge bases. Build vector DB architectures (e.g., FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate) and connect to LangChain/LlamaIndex workflows. Own chunking, indexing, and embedding strategies (OpenAI, Cohere, Hugging Face embeddings). 4. Fine-Tuning & Prompt Engineering Fine-tune LLMs and foundational models using RLHF, SFT, PEFT (e.g., LoRA) as needed. Optimize prompts for summarization, categorization, tone analysis, objection handling, etc. Perform few-shot and zero-shot evaluations for quality benchmarking. 5. Pipeline Optimization & MLOps Ensure high availability and robustness of AI pipelines using CI/CD tools, Docker, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions. Work with data engineering to streamline data ingestion, labeling, augmentation, and evaluation. Build internal tools to benchmark latency, accuracy, and relevance for production-grade AI features. 6. Team Leadership & Cross-Functional Collaboration Lead, mentor, and grow a high-performing AI engineering team. Collaborate with backend, frontend, and product teams to build scalable production systems. Participate in architectural and design decisions across AI, backend, and data workflows. 🛠️ Key Technologies & Tools Languages & Frameworks : Python, FastAPI, Flask, LangChain, PyTorch, TensorFlow, HuggingFace Transformers Voice & Audio : Whisper, Wav2Vec2.0, DeepSpeech, pyannote.audio, AssemblyAI, Kaldi, Mozilla TTS Vector DBs & RAG : FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate, ChromaDB, LlamaIndex, LangGraph LLMs & GenAI APIs : OpenAI GPT-4/3.5, Gemini, Claude, Mistral, Meta LLaMA 2/3 DevOps & Deployment : Docker, GitHub Actions, CI/CD, Redis, Kafka, Kubernetes, AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3) Databases : MongoDB, Postgres, MySQL, Pinecone, TimescaleDB Monitoring & Logging : Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry, Elastic Stack (ELK) 🎯 Requirements & Qualifications 👨💻 Experience 2-6 years of experience in building and deploying AI/ML systems, with at least 2+ years in NLP or voice technologies.
