Job description

Join a small engineering team improving existing software and building new capabilities. You will own backend reliability, data correctness and asynchronous processing, and guide technical decisions across application and automation engineers.

This is a hands-on position involving production debugging, measured performance improvements, safe changes to existing code and release ownership. Company-provided AI coding tools support the work; you remain responsible for understanding and verifying what ships.

Responsibilities

- Develop and improve TypeScript/Node.js APIs and Rust services, including concurrency, failure handling and durable processing.

- Diagnose slow queries and API paths; improve schemas, indexes, caching and background jobs based on evidence.

- Define reliable service contracts, event identities, retries and reconciliation across connected components.

- Protect data access, credentials and permissions; plan migrations, staged releases and recovery.

- Review changes, document decisions and help engineers resolve technical blockers.

- Break work into tracked tasks with acceptance criteria, obtain the required approval and provide test/release evidence at completion.

Required skills and experience

- Substantial production Node.js/TypeScript experience and Rust experience you can explain through systems you personally changed or operated.

- Practical asynchronous Rust, ownership/error handling, network integration, persistence and debugging skills.

- Strong database fundamentals, including query analysis, transactions or consistency trade-offs, and safe migration practices.

- Experience with API authentication, automated tests, Git review, logging and controlled deployment.

- Clear written English for task plans, technical decisions, incident notes and constructive review discussions.

- Evidence of taking responsibility for a problem, responding to feedback and verifying the corrected result.

Experience with MCP/tool integrations, containerised services or performance profiling is useful. Depth in the core responsibilities matters more than a long list of frameworks.

How we work and hire

Work follows documented tasks, approval, implementation, review and verification. We value early escalation of blockers and honest reporting of results.

Selection includes a short AI-assisted initial interview, an approximately 60–90-minute practical using synthetic material, and an on-site technical discussion. Final hiring decisions include human review.

About Sentiaflow

Sentiaflow is an AI engineering and IT services company building production-grade agentic AI systems, sitting at the intersection of LLMs and real business operations — data, APIs, permissions, workflow state, human decisions, security, and measurable outcomes. Our initial domain focus is healthcare, particularly clinical trials, where reliability, traceability, and clear human-decision boundaries matter more than a slick demo.

Job Description

As a Level 1 engineer, you'll implement bounded parts of a production agentic workflow under an Agent Captain or senior engineer, connecting models to application services, tools, data sources, and human approval points.

You will:

• Translate a scoped business workflow into typed inputs, outputs, states, actions, and escalation paths
• Build backend services and tool integrations (Node.js/TypeScript or Python)
• Use LLMs only where model judgment adds value; keep rules, validation, authorization, and workflow control in deterministic code
• Design and validate structured model outputs before they touch downstream systems
• Handle partial data, tool failures, duplicate events, retries, timeouts, rate limits
• Add logging, traces, metrics, and decision records for diagnosability
• Write tests and evaluation cases that check whether the full workflow behaves correctly — not just whether output sounds fluent
• Protect sensitive data; participate in code, design, and release-readiness reviews
• Explain implementation trade-offs clearly to engineers and stakeholders

Success in 6 months: own a bounded workflow module end-to-end, integrate models without letting probabilistic output bypass deterministic controls, produce release-ready evaluation evidence, and diagnose cross-boundary failures with less supervision.

Desired Skills

• Approximately 3–6 years hands-on backend/application engineering experience, with demonstrable hands-on work building agentic systems — not just calling an LLM API from a backend service
• LangGraph (or comparable agent orchestration framework) experience is required — building multi-step, stateful agent workflows with conditional branching, tool-calling loops, and recovery/retry logic, not a single-prompt wrapper
• Deep RAG experience, including:
• Chunking strategy design, embedding model selection, and retrieval evaluation (not just "connected a vector DB")
• Hybrid search (dense + sparse/keyword), re-ranking, and query rewriting/decomposition
• Handling retrieval failure modes: irrelevant context, stale data, contradictory sources, citation/grounding accuracy
• Measuring RAG quality (precision/recall on retrieval, faithfulness/groundedness of generation) — not eyeballing outputs
• Experience designing agent state machines / workflow graphs: tool selection, planning loops, human-in-the-loop interrupts, checkpointing, and state persistence across long-running workflows
• Strong programming in JS/TypeScript (preferred), Python, Java, C#, or Go
• Solid grasp of API design, databases, async processing, auth, testing, deployment
• Comfort reasoning about state, retries, idempotency, concurrency, permissions, audit trails, failure recovery
• Real production debugging experience, not just greenfield builds
• Clear technical communication

We're looking for engineers who've actually built and tuned agentic/RAG systems in production — not those who've only wired together frameworks or prompted an LLM API.

Nice to have: experience with other orchestration frameworks (CrewAI, AutoGen, custom state machines), observability/eval tooling (LangSmith, Langfuse, custom trace pipelines), healthcare or regulated-industry background. Bachelors from IIT or NIT highly preferred.

Technology Stack: Next.js, Express.js, PostgresSQL, GCP

Location: Ahmedabad

About the Role

Tech stack (expertise in all is not required, experience in some will be sufficient):

• React / Next.js (required, at least 1 year of experience)
• Express.js (required, at least 1 year of experience)
• Familiarity with cloud services (gcp / azure / aws)
• PostgreSQL (or expertise in any relational database)
• Redis
• Docker/Kubernetes deployment (good to have)

For this role we are looking for engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset, an understanding of how startups operate and who like to get their hands dirty when unknown things come their way. You will work closely with the product team to prioritise and ship features with a predictable cadence.

As this role is full-stack, you need to have a good understanding of frontend design and be obsessed with responsiveness and pixel-perfect behaviour. On the backend side, an OCD for efficiency and optimisation is a required personality trait.

Demonstrated history of solving hard problems (frontend/backend or both) is a great-to- have.

Benefits and growth

While we ensure competitive compensation (plus ESOP options for deserving candidates), at Medflix, you will also have a strong say in how final solutions look. You will get the opportunity to learn to steer an accelerating rocket ship.

College credentials, background or years of experience are no bar for growth inside the company for enthusiasts who believe in our mission and demonstrate that passion to create a product that healthcare workers love.
