This is a hands-on leadership role where you are expected to architect, code, mentor, and ship production systems at scale.
Architecture And System Design
The candidate will have responsibilities across the following functions
:
- Design scalable architectures for AI platforms, microservices, and data pipelines.
- Define system design patterns for LLM-based applications and agentic workflows.
- Build resilient systems handling high-volume BFSI data and transactions.
AI And GenAI Platform Development
- Lead development of LLM-powered services, AI agents, and orchestration layers.
- Design pipelines for document processing (PDFs, images, OCR, extraction).
- Integrate GenAI models (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini) into production workflows.
Engineering Leadership
- Lead and mentor a team of backend/full-stack engineers.
- Drive code quality, design reviews, and engineering best practices.
- Own delivery timelines and ensure high-quality execution.
Product And Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Work closely with product, ML, and business teams to translate requirements into scalable systems.
- Contribute to product thinking and feature prioritisation.
- Ensure alignment between business impact and engineering execution.
Ownership And Delivery
- Own modules end-to-end: design, build, deploy, monitor.
- Drive rapid MVP development and production rollouts.
- Ensure high availability, security, and performance.
You Will Lead Systems That
- Power loan onboarding, underwriting, CAM generation, and fraud detection.
- Enable GenAI agents for document understanding and decisioning.
- Support human-in-the-loop workflows for high-stakes financial decisions.
- Operate at scale with real-time APIs and enterprise integrations.
Requirements
- 5-8 years of experience in backend/full-stack / AI engineering.
- Prior experience as a Senior Engineer or Tech Lead.
- Strong experience building production-grade distributed systems.
Core Skills
- Strong backend expertise in Python / Node.js / TypeScript.
- Experience with microservices architecture and API design.
- Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS / GCP).
AI / GenAI Exposure
- Experience building or integrating: LLM-based systems / GenAI applications, Document processing pipelines (OCR, extraction), AI agents / LangChain / orchestration frameworks.
- Understanding of prompt engineering, embeddings, and retrieval systems.
Data And Systems
- Experience with unstructured data (PDFs, images, documents).
- Familiarity with databases (PostgreSQL, Redis).
- Experience with data pipelines and processing frameworks.
DevOps And Infra
- Experience with Docker and Kubernetes.
- CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or equivalent).
- Monitoring tools (Datadog, Grafana).
Good To Have
- Experience in BFSI / lending/fintech systems.
- Exposure to fraud detection, underwriting, or credit workflows.
- Experience building high-scale SaaS platforms.
- Prior work on agentic AI systems or workflow automation.
- Strong ownership mindset (not just task execution).
- Ability to think in systems, not just code.
- Balance between speed and architectural rigour.
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced startup environment.
- Someone who can scale both systems and teams.
Tech Stack
- Languages: Python, TypeScript, JavaScript.
- Frameworks: Node.js, React.js, LangChain.
