About the Role

We’re building the next generation of AI-powered business software, and we’re looking for people who want to shape that future with us. With Lumen, we’re reimagining how users interact with CRM — moving beyond screens, menus and dashboards to an intelligent interface where users can simply ask AI to take actions, retrieve knowledge, generate insights and get work done. With Agent Studio, we’re enabling businesses to build, test and deploy their own AI agents for real-world workflows. And with Invorto, we’re bringing AI to voice, allowing businesses to create intelligent voice agents tailored to their customer and operational use cases.

What makes this especially exciting is the stage and scale of the opportunity. You’ll get to work on genuinely hard problems across LLMs, agents, reasoning, orchestration, voice AI, evaluation, reliability and enterprise security — not as isolated experiments, but as products used in real business workflows. You’ll have the opportunity to build zero-to-one, own meaningful parts of the product end-to-end, work closely with customers, experiment rapidly, and see your work reach production at scale.

Why join now? Because the playbook for enterprise AI is still being written. You won’t just be implementing someone else’s roadmap — you’ll help define the product, architecture and experiences that become that playbook. Expect high ownership, fast iteration, hard technical and product problems, direct customer impact, and the chance to build AI systems that have to work reliably in the real world — not just in a demo.

About the Role

We are looking for a Senior AI/ML Backend Engineer to help build the core intelligence layer powering Lumen and Agent Studio. You will design and ship production-grade backend systems that integrate LLMs into real agentic workflows — taking actions, retrieving knowledge and generating insights inside a live CRM product used by real businesses. This is a hands-on, build-focused role with direct ownership of systems that ship to production.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build and scale backend services in Python that power LLM-driven and agentic features within Lumen and Agent Studio.
• Build and productionize agentic AI systems — including planning, tool use, orchestration, memory and multi-step task execution.
• Integrate LLMs into core product workflows, focusing on reliability, latency, cost and correctness at production scale.
• Build robust APIs and services that connect AI agents with CRM data, business logic and third-party systems.
• Own evaluation, testing and monitoring for AI features to ensure they behave reliably in real-world, not just demo, conditions.
• Collaborate closely with product, design and other engineers to take features from zero to one and iterate rapidly based on real usage and customer feedback.
• Work directly with customers and customer-facing teams to understand real workflows, debug issues and translate feedback into product and engineering decisions.

What We’re Looking For

• 2–4 years of professional backend engineering experience, with strong hands-on Python skills.
• Design and build LLM-powered agentic systems using frameworks such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, or CrewAI to automate complex, multi-step workflows.
• Should be hands-on with traditional Machine learning frameworks like Pytorch, Scikit-learn
• Solid understanding of API design, backend architecture, databases and distributed systems fundamentals.
• Familiarity with LLM orchestration concepts — prompting, tool/function calling, RAG, agent frameworks, evaluation and guardrails.
• Comfort working in a fast-paced, ambiguous, zero-to-one environment where you’ll be defining as much as building.
• Strong communication skills — this is a customer-facing role, and you will be expected to clearly articulate technical concepts, decisions and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including customers.

Good to Have

• Experience with enterprise security, reliability or observability practices for AI systems.
• Prior experience working on CRM, SaaS or other enterprise business software.
• Exposure to voice AI or real-time systems.

Senior AI Engineer

Code Generation, Agent Architecture & LLM Systems

📍 Mumbai (On-site) | Full-time | 5+ years

About the Role:

Unico Connect is an AI-first technology partner that builds custom mobile, web, and AI products for clients across multiple geographies.

We are hiring a Senior AI Engineer for a dedicated client engagement focused on building an AI-powered application builder platform - a product where users describe software in plain English and the system generates, previews, and iteratively refines working code.

The mandatory requirement for this role is hands-on production experience shipping LLM-powered systems with agent architectures, with experience in code generation or developer tooling contexts a strong advantage.

The role is product-focused and deeply hands-on. You will own everything between the user's prompt and correct code landing in the project: the agentic loop, code generation pipeline, context management, evaluation suite, and model cost strategy.

You will work alongside the Senior MLOps Engineer who operationalises the infrastructure around your system, and collaborate closely with backend, frontend, and DevOps engineers.

Responsibilities:

Agent Architecture

Design and own the agentic loop for the platform - request interpretation, planning, tool-calling sequence (read file, edit file, run build, search code, install package), and stop conditions.

Make and revisit architectural decisions on single-agent vs. multi-agent designs, including planner/executor splits and dedicated build-repair sub-agents.

Code Generation Pipeline

Own the end-to-end generation flow: task classification, context gathering, planning, targeted edits, verification, and commit.

Implement diff/search-replace-based file editing with fuzzy matching and fallback strategies.

Enforce scope discipline so the agent makes minimal diffs and does not modify code it was not asked to touch.

Self-Repair Loop

Build and tune the automated repair loop that pipes compiler, lint, build, and runtime errors back to the model with retry budgets and model escalation.

This loop is the primary quality lever - the difference between 60-70% and 90%+ build success rates.

Context Management

Build file-relevance retrieval so the agent sees the right files, not the whole codebase: dependency graphs, AST/tree-sitter-based chunking, embeddings, recency signals, and hybrid retrieval.

Implement conversation summarisation and memory for long sessions, and address long-project degradation through codebase summaries and periodic consistency passes.

Own token budgeting and prompt caching strategy.

Prompt Engineering as a Discipline

Own the system prompt and per-task prompt variants (new feature, bug fix, styling change).

Maintain few-shot examples and enforce coding conventions, stack rules, and prohibited behaviours such as no hardcoded secrets and no whole-file rewrites.

Version prompts like code with changelogs and rollback capability.

Evaluation and Quality Measurement

Design and own the evaluation suite: representative test prompts run on every prompt and model change, scored on build success rate, instruction adherence, and output quality including LLM-as-judge and visual/screenshot checks where relevant.

Define regression gates that block quality-degrading changes from shipping.

Treat evals the way engineers treat automated testing: versioned, automated, and tracked over time.

This responsibility is non-negotiable at this level.

Model Strategy and Cost

Design model routing - cheap and fast models for classification and small edits, frontier models for complex generation.

Drive cost optimisation through prompt caching, diff-based edits over full-file rewrites, and tighter context selection.

Track cost per agent run and tokens per task; evaluate new model releases against the eval suite and lead migrations when results justify it.

Safety and Reliability of Agent Behaviour

Defend against prompt injection from user content and fetched web content.

Ensure secrets never appear in generated client code.

Define what the agent's tools may and may not do in collaboration with the platform team.

Contribute to output moderation and abuse-pattern awareness.

Mentorship and Engineering Standards

Run code reviews, define engineering conventions for AI work, and raise the engineering bar across the AI team.

Work closely with the Senior MLOps Engineer on handoff of eval design, prompt configurations, and model routing logic.

Requirements:

Hands-on Production Ownership of LLM-Powered Systems with Agent Architectures (Mandatory)

Must have personally shipped and operated at least one complex production AI system - agentic, multi-step, or code generation - with end-to-end ownership of architecture, evaluation, and cost.

POCs, internal demos, and tutorial-grade work do not qualify.

5+ Years of Professional Software or AI Engineering Experience

With at least 3 years focused on LLM applications, AI engineering, or production AI systems.

Candidates with strong backend backgrounds and a clear, substantive pivot into LLM systems qualify.

Strong Python Proficiency and Service Development

Production-grade Python with FastAPI or equivalent: type hints, async patterns, streaming responses, testing, and packaging.

Not notebook-only.

Depth Across LLM APIs and Agent Systems

Production experience with at least two of OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, or open-weight models (vLLM, Ollama, Together).

Production experience with at least one agent framework (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, LlamaIndex Agents) or hand-rolled equivalent.

Hands-on with tool calling, structured outputs, and multi-step reasoning.

Demonstrated, Systematic Evaluation Practice - Non-Negotiable

Must have built evaluation harnesses that gate production releases, not ad-hoc testing.

Hands-on with at least one of LangSmith, Langfuse, Promptfoo, Ragas, or DeepEval.

Candidates with no systematic answer to evaluation should not be considered at senior level regardless of other strengths.

Cost Discipline for Production AI

Track record of measurable cost optimisation on production AI features.

Able to speak in specifics: cost per request, savings achieved through caching or model routing, context reduction decisions.

AWS Working Knowledge

Hands-on with EC2, S3, IAM, and Docker.

Comfort with CI/CD workflows and deploying AI services.

Awareness of LLM Security Failure Modes

Familiar with prompt injection patterns, understands that system prompt rules alone are insufficient, and has experience with output validation and content safety in production.

Nice to Have

• Experience with AST/tree-sitter tooling, diff-based editing systems, or compiler-adjacent work
• MCP server authoring
• Open-source AI contributions
• Published technical writing on LLM systems
• Multi-modal model experience
• Fine-tuning exposure (LoRA, QLoRA, PEFT)
