Business Developer

Title: Hands‑on Tech Lead (AI Agents, Automations, Chatbots)

Type: Full‑time (preferred) or full‑time‑equivalent contractor

Location: Remote (India-friendly), must overlap with founder for live collaboration

Comp: Flexible; you indicated up to ~$50k/year is comfortable for the right person

Why this role exists

We build and deploy rough-but-working “minimum viable applications” fast (days/weeks, not months) for small businesses, then gradually extract reusable components so the best solutions become repeatable products.

You’ll be the engineering owner who can design + ship, keep quality “clean enough,” and avoid the long-term trap of one-off scripts.

What you’ll build

• AI-agent driven automations using n8n (including agentic workflows, tool usage, memory/DB access, and production hardening). n8n explicitly positions AI Agents as autonomous workflows that make decisions and execute tasks, and provides dedicated AI agent capability pages/docs.  
• Conversational chatbots (web + messaging + optionally voice) with reliable orchestration, state, and analytics
• Voice experiences using ElevenLabs Text‑to‑Speech (and optionally Speech‑to‑Text), including real-time or low-latency flows.  
• Admin/internal tooling (e.g., Retool) to manage clients, prompts, workflows, logs, and operations. Retool’s own positioning: connect to databases/APIs/LLMs and build internal tools.  
• (If applicable) Voice agent platforms such as Retell AI (inbound/outbound voice agent platform + docs).  

Responsibilities

Shipping (hands-on)

• Build the first end‑to‑end “vertical slices” yourself (agent/workflow → backend/service → DB → UI/admin → deployment).
• Deliver working MVAs rapidly; optimize for time-to-deploy while maintaining baseline reliability.

Architecture & productization

• Define a lightweight but real architecture that supports:
• multi-client deployments (config/tenant separation)
• prompt/version management
• logging + observability
• secure secret handling
• repeatable integrations and “workflow templates”
• 
  
• Establish “golden path” patterns so new projects are mostly configuration + reuse.

Leadership

• Lead (and unblock) an Implementation Engineer: tickets, code review, standards, and technical direction.
• Produce short docs and checklists so others can build consistently.

Required experience (must-haves)

• Strong full‑stack fundamentals (API design, auth, data modeling, debugging, deployments).
• Proven experience building automation/workflow systems (preferably n8n in production).
• Experience with LLM + agent patterns: tool calling, retrieval/RAG, structured outputs, prompt/versioning, evaluation, failure handling.
• Conversational chatbot experience (web or messaging). Voice is a plus.
• Ability to design databases and data flows (Postgres/MySQL/etc.), including migrations and indexing.
• Strong written communication: can turn ambiguous needs into a plan, and can document the “how to run it.”

Strong plus

• Retool (or similar low-code internal tooling) experience.  
• ElevenLabs voice integration (TTS/STT) in production.  
• Experience with Retell AI or similar voice-agent platforms (Vapi/Retell/etc.).  
• Experience self-hosting and operating systems: Docker, CI/CD, monitoring, secrets.

• Experienced in Selenium WebDriver
• Experience with Selector Web Elements, Particularly XPath
• Aware of Core Selenium concepts like different types of Wait, Complex X Paths, Selenium Grid etc.
• Expertise in Java programming language
• Knowhow of Jenkins and setting up a Continuous Delivery pipeline
• Apache POI API for reading and writing data to excel.
• Experienced working in IDE : Preferably Eclipse.
• Experienced in Version Control tool : GIT or SVN.
• Experienced in Testing Framework: Preferably TestNG or JUnit.
• Experienced in Build Tools: ANT and Maven.
• Expertise in at least one programming language - Java/C#

Key Responsibilities:

• Rewrite existing APIs in NodeJS.
• Remodel the APIs into Micro services-based architecture.
• Implement a caching layer wherever possible.
• Optimize the API for high performance and scalability.
• Write unit tests for API Testing.
• Automate the code testing and deployment process.

Skills Required:

1. At least 3 years of experience developing Backends using NodeJS — should be well versed with its asynchronous nature & event loop, and know its quirks and workarounds.
2. Excellent hands-on experience using MySQL or any other SQL Database.
3. Good knowledge of MongoDB or any other NoSQL Database.
4. Good knowledge of Redis, its data types, and their use cases.

12. Good knowledge of creating and maintaining DevOps infrastructure on cloud platforms.
13. Should be a fast learner and a go-getter — without any fear of trying out new things Preferences.
14. Experience building a large scale social or location-based app.

• Strong in design patterns like MVI, MVVM, MVP and MVC.
• Good understanding of IPC, AIDL etc.
• Strong in Architecture Components like ViewModel, Navigation Graph, Room DB etc.
