Job Description

Lead Backend & AI Engineer


Simaero is a global provider of flight simulator training to airlines, training organizations, and commercial pilots. We are launching an ambitious "AI-First" strategy to create a seamless ecosystem for our users, connecting legacy aviation systems with modern mobile apps and intelligent agents.


Taking a significant step towards enhanced pilot training in India, Simaero India is establishing an 8-bay, EASA & DGCA India ATO approved Full Flight Simulator (FFS) facility. Expected to open soon, this comprehensive center boasts a convenient location just 15 minutes from New Delhi's IGI Airport. The facility will feature advanced simulators alongside a dedicated classroom with Computer-Based Training (CBT) for a thorough training experience.


Lead Backend & AI Engineer


Key Responsibilities:


AI & Logic Architecture (The "Brain")

  • Develop and maintain high-performance APIs using

    Python (FastAPI)

    .
  • Design and build

    MCP (Model Context Protocol)

    servers that define "tools" for AI agents, allowing them to safely query flight schedules, manuals, and contracts.
  • Implement

    RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation)

    workflows to allow AI to access and interpret unstructured data (PDF manuals, training docs).

API Integration & Data Engineering

  • Build the middleware that connects our mobile/web apps to external APIs, specifically

    Simorg

    (Operations),

    HubSpot

    (CRM),

    Hinfact

    (LMS), and

    Sage 100

    (Finance).
  • Develop

    ETL pipelines

    to aggregate data from these disparate sources into a central Data Warehouse on AWS for analytics and BI.
  • Design strict

    JSON Schemas

    to ensure data consistency and prevent AI hallucinations.

Security & Standardization

  • Implement secure authentication flows using

    Microsoft Entra ID (OIDC)

    , ensuring that AI agents and APIs respect strict user permission levels.
  • Create clear, comprehensive

    OpenAPI/Swagger documentation

    for the Frontend and Mobile teams.
  • Ensure high performance and caching strategies so that pilot schedules load instantly, even when backend systems are heavy.


Your Profile?


  • Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or relevant field.
  • 7+ years of experience

    in Backend Development, with expert proficiency in

    Python

    .
  • Strong understanding of

    AI/LLM concepts

    and experience with agentic frameworks (MCP, LangChain, or similar).
  • Proven experience in

    API Integration

    , wrapping complex third-party APIs (REST/SOAP) into clean internal services.
  • Solid

    Data Engineering

    skills; you know how to move and transform data (ETL) from legacy ERPs to modern warehouses.
  • Experience with

    SQL databases

    and caching mechanisms (Redis).
  • Fluency in English (spoken and written).
  • A "Product Mindset"—you don't just move data; you understand the business value of the data you are handling.


What Simaero offers you?


  • Join a fast-growing international scale-up (+25% per year), at the heart of an exciting sector that combines technology and human development.
  • Work on cutting-edge

    AI and MCP technology

    , applying it to real-world physical operations (flight simulators).
  • Be part of a diverse and inclusive team, interacting with colleagues and clients from many countries worldwide.
  • Enjoy management that prioritizes proximity and active listening.
  • Benefit from flexible working conditions.
  • Join a close-knit team where conviviality and a spirit of sharing prevail.
