Be a part of this exciting journey with us!

📝 Your Responsibility

AI System Architecture : Design and build scalable, low-latency AI inference microservices. You will move beyond simple scripts to architecting robust systems that handle high-volume video processing.

Engineering-First Model Deployment : Collaborate with the team to build production pipelines for Video Understanding and LLMs. You will be responsible not just for the model's accuracy, but for its throughput, cost-efficiency, and integration into the core backend.

High-Standard "Vibe Coding" : We embrace AI-assisted coding (Cursor, Copilot, etc.), but we demand engineering rigor. You are responsible for ensuring all code—whether written by you or generated by AI—is modular, type-safe, thoroughly tested, and maintainable.

Performance Optimization : Profile and optimize Python / C++ code and model inference layers (e.g., quantization, batching, caching strategies) to minimize GPU costs and user wait time.

R&D to Production : Conduct research on cutting‑edge LLMs / multimodal models and rapidly refactor experimental code into stable, production‑ready features.

📝 Qualifications

Bachelor's degree or above in Computer Science or related fields.

3+ years of work experience (Fresh graduates with strong internships / project experience are welcome).

Strong System Design Sense : Understanding of distributed systems, API design (REST / gRPC), asynchronous processing (task queues like Celery / Redis), and database interactions.

Solid Engineering Fundamentals :

Fluent in Python (C++ or JavaScript is a plus).

Ability to write clean, SOLID, and testable code .

Proficiency with Docker / Containerization and CI / CD workflows.

AI / ML Proficiency :

Proficient in PyTorch or TensorFlow.

Familiarity with model serving frameworks (e.g., vLLM, TGI, Triton) and ONNX.

Experience in one of the below areas :

Video Understanding / Computer Vision.

LLM Fine‑tuning / RAG Systems.

Backend Systems for AI (FastAPI, Vector DBs, Microservices).

Enthusiastic, excellent communicator, self‑motivated, and possessing a strong sense of ownership.

📝 Preferred (Bonus Points)

Full-Stack AI Experience : Experience building an end‑to‑end product feature—from the prompt engineering layer down to the API deployment and database schema.

Inference Optimization : Experience with TensorRT, quantization (AWQ / GPTQ), or FlashAttention to speed up model performance.

Vector Database at Scale : Experience managing vector stores (Pinecone, Milvus, Weaviate) in a production environment.

Open Source & Community : Experience building APIs / services / open‑source tools with ChatGPT / OpenAI APIs.

Projects completed or Research papers published in top‑tier conferences (ACL, CVPR, NeurIPS, etc.).
