Engineering Lead

ABOUT

The Persona Labs is building a new kind of social platform focused on something most social products do not explicitly optimize for: helping people become real friends.

We want to help people discover interesting people around them, find meaningful common ground, start low-pressure interactions, continue promising conversations, create shared experiences, and ultimately build real-life friendships.

DISCOVER → CURIOSITY → COMPATIBILITY → INTERACTION → UNDERSTAND → IRL EXPERIENCE → FRIENDSHIP

THE AI LAYER

Alongside the platform, we are building a proactive personal companion that learns about the user and helps them navigate this journey through personalized recommendations, suggestions, reminders and experiences.

THE OPPORTUNITY

We are looking for a Founding Product Engineer to help build the platform from the ground up. This is a 0→1 product engineering role where you work directly with the founder and engineering team to turn ambiguous product problems into working software.

You will be expected to:

Understand the problem → explore solutions → make trade-offs → design → build → ship → measure → improve.

WHAT YOU WILL BUILD & OWN

MOBILE

Onboarding, profiles, discovery, interactions, messaging, activities, and companion experiences.

SOCIAL SYSTEMS

Relationships, social graph, compatibility, and interaction flows.

BACKEND

APIs, services, authentication, notifications, and background processes.

DATA

PostgreSQL models, user/activity data, analytics, and behavioural signals.

REAL-TIME

Messaging, live interactions, notifications, and event-driven workflows.

AI-ENABLED

Recommendations, personalization, and companion-powered experiences.

INFRASTRUCTURE

Cloud deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, reliability, and cost management.

WHAT YOUR DAY-TO-DAY LOOKS LIKE

• Build and ship mobile and full-stack product features end-to-end.

• Design APIs, database models, and backend services for a social product.

• Translate ambiguous product problems into simple, reliable technical solutions.

• Make architecture and engineering trade-offs for performance, scalability, security, and cost.

• Work closely with the founder, product/design team, and Companion Intelligence engineer.

• Prototype quickly, test assumptions, and iterate based on user behaviour and product feedback.

• Own features from problem → architecture → implementation → deployment → improvement.

• Help establish engineering practices around testing, monitoring, security, and reliability.

WHO SHOULD APPLY

• Experience: 0–4 years, including exceptional fresh graduates. Strong 1–3 year engineers and experienced 3–4 year product builders are welcome.

• Fundamentals: Strong CS/software engineering fundamentals.

• Evidence of Building: We value what you have built more than the number of years on your résumé. Shipped apps, strong side projects, hackathons, internships, open source, or startup work are highly valued.

• Mindset: High ownership, curiosity, strong fundamentals, clear communication, learning velocity, and the ability to work through ambiguity.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

MOBILE CAPABILITY

Can you build and ship a polished mobile experience?

ENGINEERING DEPTH

Do you understand why a system works, not just how to make it run?

PRODUCT JUDGMENT

Can you determine what should be built when the problem is ambiguous?

ARCHITECTURE / SYSTEMS

Can you reason across APIs, databases, services, real-time systems, scale, and cost?

SPEED OF EXECUTION

Can you move from idea → prototype → production quickly without compromising fundamentals?

AI FAMILIARITY

Do you understand how modern AI can become a useful, reliable product capability?

BUILD WITH US

You will join at a stage where many answers do not exist yet. You will not simply implement someone else’s architecture, you will help decide what the architecture and product should become.

CAREERS:

Apply with your resume, GitHub, portfolio or shipped work.

About the Role

We're looking for a Product Engineer who thinks like a builder, not just a coder. Someone who cares as much about why we're building something as how it's built, and takes real ownership of the product outcomes, not just the code they ship.

Tech Stack

Frontend: React.js | Backend: Python (Django) | AI: Claude / LLM-driven development

Roles & Responsibilities

• End-to-End Feature Ownership
• Own features from concept to deployment — writing clean, scalable code while staying closely tied to the product goal and user impact behind it.
• Full-Stack Development
• Build and maintain front-end interfaces in React.js and back-end systems in Python/Django, ensuring performance, reliability, and scalability across the product.
• Product Thinking
• Work closely with Product, Design, and Founders to shape specs, question assumptions, and suggest simpler or smarter ways to solve user problems.
• Rapid Iteration
• Ship fast, test in production, gather feedback, and iterate, balancing speed with code quality.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration
• Partner with Design and Data teams to bring dashboards, AI-driven features, and data visualizations to life.

• Contribute to technical architecture decisions, ensuring the codebase stays scalable as the product and team grow.
• Debugging & Problem Solving
• Diagnose and resolve complex technical issues quickly, treating downtime or bugs as urgent, customer-impacting problems.
• AI-Native Development
• Actively build with AI — using Claude and other LLM tools not just to assist coding, but to develop AI-powered features, prompt workflows, and intelligent product capabilities within AdsGPT itself.

Requirements

• 1-2 years of experience as a Product Engineer, ideally in a startup or B2B SaaS environment
• Candidates with B.Tech in CSE, AI/ML or any other equivalent educational background from Tier-1 and Tier-2 colleges will be preferred
• Strong proficiency in React.js for front-end development
• Strong proficiency in Python, with hands-on experience in Django for back-end development
• Solid understanding of REST APIs, databases (SQL/NoSQL), and system design fundamentals
• Hands-on experience building with AI tools (like Claude), not just using them for coding assistance, but developing core AI products.
• Experience working directly with Product/Design teams, not just executing tickets
• Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-changing environments with minimal hand-holding
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills

Good to Have

• Familiarity with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for securely connecting LLMs to external tools and APIs.
• Experience building conversational AI interfaces or managing complex multi-turn chatbot state across various platforms and channels.
• Experience in AdTech, MarTech, or data-heavy SaaS platforms.
• Exposure to cloud infra (AWS/GCP/Azure), Docker, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience with LLM evaluation/monitoring tools (Ragas, LangSmith, Langfuse, or similar).
• Experience with data visualization libraries (Recharts, D3.js, Chart.js).
• Familiarity with compliance-aware or explainable AI design in regulated domains.

What We Look For In Candidates

• Customer Obsession – A genuine curiosity about how your code impacts the customer's experience, not just whether it compiles.
• Ownership – You drive features to completion, chasing down blockers instead of waiting on them.
• Stakeholder Understanding & Management – You know when to loop in Product, Design, or Business to unblock yourself fast.
• High Standards – You hold your own code to a higher bar, even when no one's checking.
• Disagree and Commit – You debate technical decisions hard, then commit fully once the call is made.
• Simplify Relentlessly – You reach for the simplest working solution, not the most "clever" one.
• Solidarity with the Team – You show up for your teammates, no invitation needed.
• Vitality – You bring real energy and resilience that keeps you (and others) going.

• Why Join Venxr?
• Be part of a fast-growing startup that puts data at the heart of every decision.
• Opportunity to work on high-impact, real-world business challenges.
• Collaborative, transparent, and learning-oriented work environment.
• Flexible work culture with a strong focus on career development.
• Comprehensive health benefits to support your well-being.
