Senior Software Engineer - AI

About the Role -

What You'll Do -

? Design and build AI-powered applications using LLMs (OpenAI, LLaMA, Mistral, etc.), vector databases, and embedding models

? Build scalable backend systems and APIs (Python, FastAPI, Node.js, etc.) to serve AI features in production

? Develop retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines and manage unstructured knowledge bases (PDFs, docs, audio)

? Optimize inference pipelines for low latency and cost (e.g., with Ollama, vLLM, or LangChain)

? Work with tools like Whisper, HuggingFace, and Pinecone/ChromaDB/Weaviate

? Write clean, modular code and lead by example in engineering excellence

? Collaborate closely with product, design, and ML teams to rapidly prototype and ship features

Must-Have Skills -

? 4+ years of software engineering experience (Python preferred)

? Hands-on experience with LLMs, generative AI, or custom ML workflows

? Strong understanding of NLP, embeddings, and vector search

? Experience with FastAPI / Flask / Django and REST APIs

? Solid grounding in Docker, Git, and CI/CD pipelines

? Comfortable with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and containerized deployments

? Strong debugging, performance tuning, and system design skills

Good to Have -

? Experience with LangChain, Haystack, or custom RAG frameworks

? Familiarity with Whisper (speech-to-text) or audio/video transcription pipelines

? Frontend knowledge in React.js is a bonus

? Experience scaling AI systems to serve 10k+ users

? MLOps exposure (MLFlow, Weights & Biases, etc.)

What We Look For -

? You thrive in ambiguity and move fast from prototype to production

? You think deeply about user experience in AI-driven applications

? You enjoy collaborating across teams and sharing your learnings

? You keep up with emerging research but know how to make it real
