Location: Salarpuria Magnificia, K.R. Puram, Bangalore, India

The InRhythm Opportunity:

A major global retail enterprise seeks to accelerate the development of a fiscal compliance integration for their existing Point of Sale (POS) platform across four EMEA markets. You will architect real-time and batch transaction reporting within a high-throughput Java and Node.js stack. As the technical anchor of a fully AI-native pod, you will embed with enterprise squads to pioneer AI-assisted engineering workflows, serving as a coach and architect to redefine how software is delivered at scale.

Your Impact

You will design AI-integrated delivery models and make critical architectural trade-offs between component boundaries to build a high-performance integration middleware. By aggressively applying GenAI tooling, you will lead your team to achieve a 20% improvement in cycle time, setting a definitive standard for software execution speed and code quality.

What You Will Do

• Architect AI-integrated software engineering workflows and operating in a native AI-DLC model.
• Define component boundaries for a high-performance integration layer connecting enterprise POS systems to regional fiscal authorities.
• Lead a highly skilled pod, providing technical coaching to teach AI-native software development lifecycle workflows.
• Partner directly with enterprise architecture and procurement leadership to drive technical strategy.
• Maintain rigorous operational discipline by driving daily stand-ups, backlog grooming, and bi-weekly retrospectives.
• Enforce automated quality by mandating at least 90% AI-generated unit and integration test coverage.
• Drive delivery velocity to reduce cycle time and lead time for changes by at least 30%.
• Achieve zero critical defects and eliminate at least 80% of trivial code review findings.
• Accelerate code review latency by at least 70% using AI-generated diff summaries and risk flags.

Must Have Experience:

• Production experience architecting and building with Java and Node.js or JavaScript for large-scale enterprise integrations.
• Deep, hands-on expertise with GenAI tooling such as GitHub Copilot, Amazon Q, or Claude Code.
• A demonstrated growth mindset with a strong drive to apply AI software engineering concepts to daily workflows.
• A commitment to automated quality and experience-driven test coverage using AI tools.

Nice to Have Experience:

• Previous exposure to highly distributed POS architectures or financial transaction processing within retail domains.
• Knowledge of EMEA fiscal compliance and reporting regulations.
• Experience tracking and reporting on delivery metrics, including pull request latency and cycle time reduction.

Why You'll Thrive at InRhythm

InRhythm is a product engineering and AI transformation company based in New York City — recognized on the Inc. 5000 list of America's Fastest Growing Companies for 8 consecutive years and inducted into the Inc. 5000 Hall of Fame, an honor held by fewer than 1% of companies on the list. We have also appeared on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500™ for four consecutive years.

We build software products and engineer the AI operating models that make engineering organizations faster, more capable, and measurably better. That means AI-native delivery teams, certified engineering cultures, board-ready AI governance, and outcomes — not just tools.

AI is shifting from an efficiency layer to the core operating model of how great engineering organizations work. InRhythm sits at the center of that shift. Through Arula, our enterprise AI adoption and transformation practice, we take financial services and enterprise engineering organizations from ad hoc AI experimentation to governed, measurable, board-reportable AI transformation at scale.

Our engineering pods combine deep technical craft with AI-native delivery methodology — spec-driven development, agentic workflows, and AI-assisted quality governance — so every engagement accelerates time to market with compounding returns on quality.

The traits that define InRhythmers: drive, ownership, clear communication, and a bias toward outcomes over activity. We make our clients measurably better. That is the only metric that matters.

We don't just build—we build what's next. Together.
