Job description

Job Title: Hacker-Mind AI Engineer

Location: Bangalore, Mumbai

Team: Data & AI Innovation

About the Role

Fractal Analytics is seeking a rare breed of technologist — a Hacker-Mind AI Engineer — to join our Data & AI Innovation team. You won’t just write code; you’ll shape problems, prototype solutions, and experiment with bleeding-edge AI tools and infrastructure. This role is ideal for engineers who thrive in ambiguity, enjoy building before a spec is finalized, and see every challenge as a systems puzzle waiting to be solved.

What You’ll Do

• Rapidly prototype end-to-end AI solutions — from data ingestion to model inference to deployment
• Explore and experiment with emerging technologies (LLMs, GenAI, real-time pipelines, etc.)
• Define ambiguous problem statements and shape technical solutions collaboratively with clients and internal teams
• Contribute to internal R&D sprints, solution accelerators, and tech deep-dives
• Serve as a technical thought partner to product owners, architects, and innovation leaders.

Skills & Experience

• Must-Haves: 5+ years of experience in software/data/AI engineering (or equivalent open-source/portfolio proof)
• Fluency in Python and at least one systems or compiled language (e.g., Rust, Go, TypeScript)
• Hands‑on experience with AI/ML frameworks: PyTorch, TensorFlow, HuggingFace, LangChain, etc.
• Familiarity with cloud-native workflows: containers, orchestration, CI/CD, IaC (Docker, K8s, Terraform)
• Ability to work across the stack: data wrangling, modeling, API design, MLOps

Bonus Points For

• Open‑source contributions or personal GitHub projects
• Experience working with or building LLM‑powered systems
• Knowledge of streaming, real‑time data, or low‑latency infrastructure
• Participation in hackathons, AI challenges, or research communities

How You Work

• You’re autonomous, curious, and comfortable being the technical lead in an ambiguous environment
• You think in code and prototype fast
• You’re not just a problem solver — you’re a problem definer
• You keep up with tech trends not because you have to, but because you love to.
