Job description

About The Role

We are looking for 3-7 years of experience as Applied AI Scientist who can design, prototype, and ship agent-based AI products. This is a hands‑on agentic AI scientist role. The candidate will work across chat agents, voice agents, multilingual AI, workflow automation, and multimodal systems, and will be expected to take ideas from concept to production. This is not a research‑only role nor a pure media or content role. The focus is on building AI systems embedded inside real products.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and ship chat, voice, and multimodal AI agents integrated into production products.
• Design agent workflows using LLMs, tools, memory, and state.
• Implement voice pipelines, including ASR, TTS, turn-taking, and interruptions.
• Work on Indian language voice agents, including latency and quality tuning.
• Develop workflow automation logic driven by agents.
• Build task execution systems where agents plan, act, and verify outcomes.
• Design and implement media and martech agents as part of product features.
• Build persona‑based systems for content, campaigns, and engagement.
• Implement agent moderation and control mechanisms.
• Add observability, logging, and debugging for AI behavior.
• Reduce hallucinations and failure modes through system design.
• Collaborate closely with product, design, and engineering teams.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Bachelors/Master Degree in Computer Science or related field from one of the premier institutes in India/Abroad. IIT/IIIT/ISI/RECs would be preferred.
• Hands‑on experience building LLM‑powered applications.
• Experience with chat agents or conversational systems.
• Understanding of tool calling, agent loops, memory, and state.
• Experience integraWng AI APIs and MCP’s into backend or product workflows.
• Familiarity with voice AI systems or strong interest in building them.
• Ability to rapidly prototype and iterate on AI‑driven features.
• Strong debugging mindset for real‑world AI failures.
• Should be comfortable in working in fast‑moving product environments.
• Strong AI engineering background is a must.

Strong Plus Points

• Voice agents, speech‑to‑text, text‑to‑speech, or telephony systems.
• Indian language NLP or speech systems.
• Workflow automation or agent orchestration frameworks.
• RAG systems, embeddings, and vector databases.
• Martech, CLM, campaign automation, or ad‑tech workflows.
• Persona‑based content or personalization systems.
• SaaS products with real users and scale constraints.

What this role is not about?

• Writes prompts without shipping systems.
• Builds AI demos without production integration.
• Focuses only on standalone media creation..
• Wants to work purely on research without execution.

Why Join Us?

• Opportunity to make an impact
• Culture of Innovation : dynamic workplace that encourages experimentation.

ownership, and continuous growth.

• Vibrant Workplace: Work from our Mumbai office, collaborate with brilliant minds in

a lively vibe!

• Inclusive & Diverse: Talent matters, not labels.
• Meaningful Perks: Extra paid leaves for birthdays, anniversaries & more.
