About Company (GeniWay)

GeniWay Technologies is pioneering India’s first AI-native platform for personalized learning and career guidance, transforming the way students learn, grow, and determine their future path. Addressing challenges in the K-12 system such as one-size-fits-all teaching and limited career awareness, GeniWay leverages cutting-edge AI to create a tailored educational experience for every student. The core technology includes an AI-powered learning engine, a 24x7 multilingual virtual tutor and Clario, a psychometrics-backed career guidance system. Aligned with NEP 2020 policies, GeniWay is on a mission to make high-quality learning accessible to every student in India, regardless of their background or region.


What you’ll do

  • Build the career assessment backbone: attempt lifecycle (create/resume/submit), timing metadata, partial attempts, idempotent APIs.
  • Implement deterministic scoring pipelines with versioning and audit trails (what changed, when, why).
  • Own Postgres data modeling: schemas, constraints, migrations, indexes, query performance.
  • Create safe, structured GenAI context payloads (controlled vocabulary, safety flags, eval datasets) to power parent/student narratives.
  • Raise reliability: tests for edge cases, monitoring, reprocessing/recalculation jobs, safe logging (no PII leakage).


Must-have skills

  • Backend development in Python (FastAPI/Django/Flask) or Node (NestJS) with production API experience.
  • Strong SQL + PostgreSQL fundamentals (transactions, indexes, schema design, migrations).
  • Testing discipline: unit + integration tests for logic-heavy code; systematic debugging approach.
  • Comfort using AI coding copilots to speed up scaffolding/tests/refactors — while validating correctness.
  • Ownership mindset: cares about correctness, data integrity, and reliability.


Good to have

  • Experience with rule engines, scoring systems, or audit-heavy domains (fintech, healthcare, compliance).
  • Event schemas/telemetry pipelines and observability basics.
  • Exposure to RAG/embeddings/vector DBs or prompt evaluation harnesses.


Location: Pune (on-site for first 3 months; hybrid/WFH flexibility thereafter)

Employment Type: Full-time

Experience: 2–3 years (correctness-first; strong learning velocity)

Compensation: Competitive (₹8–10 LPA fixed cash) + ESOP (equity ownership, founding-early employee level)

Joining Timeline: 2–3 weeks / Immediate


Why join (founding team)

  • You’ll build core IP: scoring integrity and data foundations that everything else depends on.
  • Rare skill-building: reliable systems + GenAI-safe context/evals (not just API calls).
  • Meaningful ESOP upside at an early stage.
  • High trust, high ownership, fast learning.
  • High-impact mission: reduce confusion and conflict in student career decisions; help families make better choices, transform student lives by making great learning personal.


Hiring process (fast)

1.      20-min intro call (fit + expectations).

2.      45–60 min SQL & data modeling, API deep dive.

3.      Practical exercise (2–3 hours max) implementing a small scoring service with tests.

4.      Final conversation + offer.


How to apply

Reply with your resume/LinkedIn profile plus one example of a system/feature where you owned data modeling and backend integration (a short paragraph is fine).

About

GeniWay is building India’s first AI-native personalized learning & career clarity platform, designed to transform how students learn, grow, and choose their future.

India’s K-12 system is broken in predictable ways:

• One-size-fits-all teaching

• Exam stress & coaching dependency

• Limited conceptual understanding

• Poor career awareness

• Lack of multilingual support for millions

We’re here to redesign the learning experience from first principles.


What We’re Building:

1. Learning Fingerprint Engine (AI + Analytics)

A proprietary engine that discovers each student’s unique learning patterns, strengths, pace, and misconceptions — and adapts learning pathways dynamically.

Tech stack involves:

• LLM orchestration

• student modeling & knowledge graphs

• embeddings & personalization models

• lightweight agents optimized for real-world latency & cost


2. “Geni Ma’am” — 24×7 AI Teacher (GenAI)

A multilingual AI tutor that explains any concept (text, voice, image), adapts to a student’s level, and teaches with empathy and simplicity.

Built using:

• Advanced prompt-engineering + guardrails

• Multi-agent reasoning

• Retrieval-augmented teaching flows

• Emotion-aware scaffolding


3. Clario — 360° Career & Stream Guidance

A psychometrics-backed system that maps a student’s aptitude, interests, personality, exam stamina, family expectations, and local opportunities to help them choose the right higher-study path.

Includes:

• 14-dimension assessment system

• Psychometric scoring logic

• Rich content + narrative explanations

• Parent–student alignment tools


🌱 Our Mission

To democratize high-quality learning & career clarity for every student in India — regardless of region, medium, or background.

We are designing GeniWay as a long-term, high-impact company aligned with NEP 2020 and built with deep empathy for students, parents, and educators.
