About the Role:

We are looking for a highly technical Software Development Engineer I (SDE I ) with strong expertise in Python, AI/ML and backend development to join our engineering team in Bengaluru.

The role involves working on the development and enhancement of technology products and modular product features across areas such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, automation, data processing and web-based systems.

You will work closely with the product and engineering team to develop individual modules, services and capabilities that form part of larger technology products.

The primary technical focus will be Python, logical problem solving, AI/ML and backend engineering. Knowledge of Node.js, JavaScript and frontend development will be an added advantage.

This role is intended for someone with strong computer science fundamentals and genuine software engineering capability, rather than someone whose experience is limited to short-term coding courses or basic development training.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain Python-based software modules and backend services
• Build AI/ML-powered features and integrate them into production applications
• Develop data processing, automation and intelligent processing pipelines
• Work with APIs, databases and third-party services
• Implement modular components that integrate with larger product systems
• Develop and maintain REST APIs and backend services
• Work with structured and unstructured data
• Integrate AI/ML models and external AI services into applications
• Develop automation and data extraction systems where required
• Debug, optimize and improve existing modules and services
• Understand existing codebases and contribute to their continued development
• Work with engineering and product teams to convert requirements into reliable technical implementations
• Evaluate and adopt appropriate technologies for specific product requirements
• Write maintainable, reusable and production-quality code
• Participate in the complete development lifecycle of assigned modules and features

Core Technical Requirements

• Python Mandatory
• Strong practical knowledge of Python is required.
• Candidates should be comfortable with:
• Python programming
• Object-oriented programming
• Data structures and algorithms
• Exception handling
• File and data processing
• REST APIs
• API integrations
• Debugging
• Package and dependency management
• Writing modular and maintainable code
• Basic asynchronous programming concepts
• AI / Machine Learning Mandatory
• Practical understanding of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is required.
• Experience with some of the following will be preferred:
• Machine Learning fundamentals
• Supervised and unsupervised learning
• Model training and evaluation
• Feature engineering
• NLP
• Generative AI
• Large Language Models
• Embeddings
• RAG
• AI/ML APIs
• Model integration
• scikit-learn
• PyTorch
• TensorFlow

Candidates are not expected to know every framework or technology listed above. Strong fundamentals and the ability to apply them practically are more important.

• Backend & Database
• REST API development
• FastAPI / Flask / Django or equivalent
• SQL
• MySQL / PostgreSQL or equivalent
• Database fundamentals
• Git / GitHub
• Basic Linux/server knowledge
• Additional Skills
• Knowledge or experience in the following will be an advantage:
• Node.js

• React or other frontend technologies
• Docker
• AWS or other cloud platforms
• Redis
• MongoDB
• Web scraping and data extraction
• Selenium / Playwright / Puppeteer
• Data pipelines
• CI/CD
• Microservices architecture

Frontend development is not the primary responsibility of this role. Candidates with stronger Python, backend and AI/ML capabilities will be preferred over candidates with primarily frontend/full-stack experience.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for an engineer with strong technical fundamentals, analytical thinking and genuine software development experience.

The ideal candidate should:

• Have strong programming and problem-solving ability
• Understand c…
