JUNIOR AI BACKEND ENGINEER

🚀

WE'RE HIRING: AI BACKEND ENGINEER (PYTHON & LLMS) — JUNIOR (0–1 YRS) 📍

Location: Ahmedabad (On-site) 🕐

Type: Full-time | Early-stage Startup 🌟

WHO WE ARE We're a tiny team building an enterprise AI copilot on top of company data. We ship fast, learn faster, and your code will ship to real users. If you love problem-solving, clean APIs, and playing with LLMs, you'll feel at home. 🎯

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Build small backend features in Python (FastAPI/Flask), starting with well-scoped tasks
• Call LLM/APIs (OpenAI/Azure/Mistral), handle auth, timeouts, retries, and streaming responses
• Write tests (pytest), logs, and docs for what you build — we keep things tidy
• Work with SQL (Postgres/MySQL): read/write data, debug queries, add migrations
• Ship to cloud with guidance (AWS + Docker + GitHub Actions)
• Pair with seniors, join design reviews, and learn how production systems are built 🧠

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

• Prompt design, function/tool calling, and "how to talk to LLMs"
• RAG basics: embeddings, vector DBs, chunking strategies
• Observability: tracing, metrics, structured logs
• Guardrails: input/output validation, cost & latency tracking for LLM calls 🙋

WHO YOU ARE

• Fresher / 0–1 year experience (internships, hackathons, or solid personal projects count!)
• Comfortable reading docs, debugging weird errors, and asking great questions
• You build, break, learn, repeat — and you commit often ✅

MUST-HAVE SKILLS

• Python fundamentals for backend (functions, modules, async basics)
• HTTP/REST, JSON, and calling third-party APIs
• FastAPI or Flask basics (routes, request/response models)
• SQL basics with any RDBMS (Postgres/MySQL/MariaDB)
• Git/GitHub, basic Docker, and comfort in a terminal
• Exposure to LLMs via any provider (used OpenAI/Claude/Mistral in a project is perfect) 💡

NICE TO HAVES (TEACHABLE ON THE JOB)

• LangChain/LlamaIndex, or you've rolled simple orchestration yourself
• Vector DBs (pgvector/Pinecone/Weaviate/Milvus) and embeddings
• Redis for caching/queues; basics of Kafka/SQS
• OAuth2/JWT, OpenAPI/Swagger
• Observability (OpenTelemetry/Prometheus/Grafana) and typing/linting culture 🎁

WHY JOIN US

• 🚀 Ownership from week one (mentorship included)
• 🛠️ Real impact: your features go live, not to a backlog graveyard
• 📚 Steep learning curve in AI product engineering
• 🍵 Friendly, curious team that ships
