AI Lead

About Techjays

At Techjays, we build production-grade AI platforms for global clients. We operate at the intersection of backend engineering, distributed systems, and applied AI — delivering secure, scalable, and enterprise-ready intelligent systems. Our team has built and scaled products at Google, Akamai, NetApp, ADP, Cognizant, and Capgemini.

About The Role

This is not a feature-delivery role. We are looking for an AI Lead who can architect, own, and scale intelligent backend systems end-to-end. You will drive both technical direction and execution — working across LLM integrations, RAG pipelines, agentic AI workflows, and cloud-native backend systems for global clients.

What You'll Do

• Architect and scale backend systems powering AI-driven applications
• Design and implement RAG pipelines, AI agents, and LLM integrations
• Own systems end-to-end — from architecture to deployment and scaling
• Integrate and optimize LLMs (Claude, GPT, Gemini) for real-world production use cases
• Build high-performance distributed systems with observability and cost efficiency
• Lead backend and AI initiatives with strong technical ownership
• Mentor engineers and raise the technical bar across teams
• Collaborate with product and AI teams to deliver AI-native solutions
  
  

What We're Looking For

• 6–10 years of strong backend engineering experience
• Hands-on expertise in Python (FastAPI / Django / Flask)
• Deep understanding of Generative AI and LLM-based systems
• Strong experience with RAG pipelines and Vector Databases (Pinecone, FAISS, ChromaDB, Weaviate)
• Solid knowledge of Agentic AI — building autonomous agents and multi-agent workflows
• Proficiency in AWS or GCP in production environments
• Experience with distributed systems, microservices, and system design
• Strong grasp of Data Structures, Algorithms, and Design Patterns
• Familiarity with WebSockets, Git, Linux/Unix, and CI/CD
  
  

Nice to Have

• Experience with Anthropic Claude API and Claude Code
• Familiarity with real-time data systems or streaming (Kafka, etc.)
• MLOps and AI system lifecycle experience
• Optimizing AI systems for latency, cost, and scalability
  
  

Who You Are

• You think in systems, not just features
• You take full ownership of what you build
• You are comfortable navigating fast-moving, ambiguous environments
• You stay updated with the latest in Generative AI and backend technologies
• Strong communicator who can collaborate across teams and global clients
  
  

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation (Best in Industry)
• Work on production-grade AI systems used by global clients
• Exposure to cutting-edge AI tools and frameworks
• A culture that values clarity, integrity, and continuous growth
