Job Description
What We're Building
It is an AI product agent that understands your product first, then designs for it. It ingests your app, your Figma, your docs, and builds a persistent memory of how your product works. Product thinking first. Design execution second.
How We Work
We're a small team. You'll have more ownership than most engineers get across an entire career.
- Understand it deeply. Talk to users before writing code.
- Build it. Stay current, move fast, don't be reckless.
- Ship it. A feature nobody uses isn't a feature.
- No layers of process. Idea to production the same week.
Your Job in One Line
Own the AI layer. Make it fast, cheap, high-quality and hard to replicate.
What You'll Do
- Own the AI layer end-to-end.
- Build the product context engine. This is the hard problem.
- Optimize cost, latency, and quality.
- Improve how AI interacts with users.
- Stay ahead of what's shipping. Pull it in before others do.
What You Need to Know
- AI agents in production. Shipped to real users. LangGraph/LangChain, orchestration, tool calling, evals.
- Context & retrieval. RAG that works at production quality. Prompt engineering as architecture.
- Cost & performance. Caching, routing, model selection, token management. Engineering, not guesswork.
- Python. Deep. FastAPI, async, clean at scale.
- Staying current. You follow what's shipping. You've picked up something early and it paid off.
What Matters More Than Your Resume
- You've built an AI system end-to-end and can walk through every trade-off you made.
- You think about AI UX. Output quality means nothing if the interaction is clunky or slow.
- You treat cost/latency/quality as an engineering problem, not an inevitable compromise.
- You can explain complex AI decisions to designers and PMs clearly.
- You operate with ownership. You don't wait to be told what to explore next.
This isn't a "fine-tune and hand off" role. You own the intelligence layer of the product.
Role Basics
Experience: 4+ years of building and shipping.
Location: Bangalore, HSR Layout. Work from the office, 5 days a week.
Reporting line: Reports to the CTO.
Notice period: Candidates who can join within 30 days.
Interview Process
- Application review. We go through every CV personally.
- Technical rounds with the CTO and team.
- Assignment round (if applicable).
How We Review
- Consistent track record. Trajectory over titles.
- A clear spike. One thing you're unusually good at that transfers to what we're building.
- Relevance. LLMs in production, context-heavy products, RAG at quality.
- Been challenged? Founding roles, high-growth teams, messy fast environments.
The goal is simple: we want to feel curious enough after reading your application to get on a call with you.
4+ years of actually shipping things that mattered. Deeply curious. Builds what others are still reading about.
We'd love to meet you.
