Job description

Software Engineer, Full Stack (Python & Golang backend + Frontend) - PUNE

• Full-time

QAD | Redzone is redefining manufacturing and supply chains through an intelligent, adaptive platform that connects people, processes, and technology into a single System of Action. Founded in 1979 and headquartered in Miami, Florida, the company serves manufacturers across more than 100 countries in industries including automotive, consumer products, food and beverage, high technology, industrial equipment, and life sciences.

The platform is built on three core pillars: Redzone (frontline empowerment), Adaptive ERP (the intelligent backbone of manufacturing operations), and ChampionAI (Agentic AI purpose-built for manufacturing). Together, these enable manufacturers to achieve measurable productivity, resilience, and growth — in as little as 90 days.

ChampionAI is QAD | Redzone's agentic platform, purpose-built for manufacturing and used across all business units. As a junior-level Engineer, you will join the core platform team to build new platform capabilities, help Applied AI teams ship Champion agents correctly, and directly build Champion agents for business-unit use cases.

• Identify and address friction points that slow down Champion development or deployment.
• Support BU Applied AI engineers in building, deploying, and operating Champions correctly.
• Review agent implementations for prompt quality, scope enforcement, auth configuration, and deployment setup.
• Contribute to internal engineering guides and skill documentation.
• Pair with BU engineers on first K8S manifest creation, database registration, and LaunchDarkly prompt rollout.
• Design and build Champion agents for BU use-cases when the platform team is directly engaged.
• Write and iterate on system prompts, tool bindings, and context injection for production agents.

MUST-HAVE QUALIFICATIONS

• 2+ years of hands-on software development experience, specialising in Python, Golang and AI-driven systems.
• Proficiency in Python (async, FastAPI, Pydantic, pytest, pytest-asyncio, DeepEval), Docker, PostgreSQL, and Git.
• Good understanding of Model Context Protocol (MCP), Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol, and multi-agent architectures.
• Experience with prompt engineering, agent orchestration, and evaluation design.
• Familiarity with LaunchDarkly and AI-native development tools (Cursor, Claude Code).

NICE-TO-HAVE

• Working knowledge of AWS (ECR, EKS, Bedrock), Kubernetes, and Terraform.
• M.S. / M.Tech in Computer Science, AI, or ML.
• Exposure to manufacturing or industrial software contexts.

KEY SKILLS

EDUCATION

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• M.S. / M.Tech in Computer Science or AI/ML is a plus.

• Your health and well being are important to us at QAD. We provide programs that help you strike a healthy work-life balance.
• Opportunity to join a growing business, launching into its next phase of expansion and transformation.
• Collaborative culture of smart and hard-working people who support one another to get the job done.
