Role Overview
We are looking for a Senior GenAI Engineer with strong core engineering foundations and hands‑on experience building and deploying GenAI solutions. This role is execution‑ and ownership‑focused - responsible for delivering GenAI features end‑to‑end (backend + frontend), working with agentic AI workflows, and mentoring junior engineers while handling ambiguous requirements. This position is part of our GenAI hiring phase, where we prioritize strong full‑stack/backend engineers who have recently built and shipped GenAI and agentic AI solutions in production.
Experience Profile
- Overall experience: 5-8 years
- Core engineering background: Python (Django / FastAPI) + React
- GenAI experience: 3-4+ years of hands‑on, production‑level experience, including Agentic AI
- Core stack: Python/Django, with React/Svelte on the front end.
- GCP/Azure is the primary cloud platform , it's nice to have.
- Location: Bangalore (or willing to relocate to Bangalore)
Key Responsibilities
GenAI Solution Development
- Build and deploy GenAI‑powered features within real‑world products, spanning backend (Python - Django/FastAPI) and frontend (React) layers.
- Design and implement RAG pipelines, including Embeddings, Vector databases, and Retrieval strategies.
- Integrate GenAI capabilities with backend systems via APIs and services.
- Build responsive, GenAI‑integrated UI/UX components in React to surface AI‑driven features to end users.
System & Solution Ownership
- Own GenAI solutions end‑to‑end, from design to production rollout across backend, frontend, and AI layers.
- Design RAG architectures and decide chunking strategies and retrieval approaches.
- Handle ambiguous requirements and convert them into working, shippable solutions.
Reliability, Quality & Performance
- Address latency, cost, and evaluation considerations in GenAI systems.
- Implement guardrails and safety mechanisms.
- Contribute to monitoring and basic operational readiness.
Agentic AI (Core Focus)
- Build and own agent-based workflows, including multi‑step reasoning flows, tool/function calling, and orchestrated GenAI interactions.
- Work hands‑on with agent frameworks to design and deploy production‑grade agentic systems (deep research not required, but practical build experience expected).
- Mentor junior engineers working on GenAI components.
- Review GenAI‑related code and designs, across both backend and frontend implementations.
- Collaborate closely with backend, frontend, data, and product teams.
Must‑Have Skills
- Core stack: Python/Django, with React/Svelte on the front end.
- GCP/Azure is the primary cloud platform , it's nice to have.
- Strong engineering experience in Python (Django / FastAPI) and React.
- Hands‑on experience building GenAI applications in production.
- Experience with RAG pipelines, Vector databases, LLM APIs, and Agentic AI (multi‑step reasoning, tool/function calling, orchestration).
- Solid understanding of API design and backend integrations.
- Ability to reason about trade‑offs in performance, cost, and reliability.
Nice‑to‑Have Skills
- Azure is good to have, as some requirements may involve Azure depending on the project.
- Familiarity with evaluation frameworks for GenAI.
