Java Backend Developer (AVP Role)

About PGAGI:

We're at the forefront of creating advanced AI systems, from fully autonomous agents that provide intelligent customer interaction to data analysis tools that offer insightful business solutions. We are seeking enthusiastic interns who are passionate about AI and ready to tackle real-world problems using the latest technologies.

About the Role

We are at the forefront of building advanced AI systems — from fully autonomous agents that power intelligent customer interactions, to data analysis tools that deliver actionable business insights. This internship combines hands-on AI/ML engineering with robust backend development, giving you a complete picture of how production-grade AI systems are built, deployed, and scaled.

You will work across the full stack: designing and fine-tuning AI models on one end, and architecting the APIs, databases, and server-side infrastructure that bring those models to life on the other.

Key Responsibilities

AI / ML ENGINEERING

Design, experiment with, and fine-tune large language models (LLMs) and NLP pipelines for real-world use cases.

Develop and iterate on prompt engineering strategies to optimise model performance and output quality.

Integrate and deploy models using Hugging Face and OpenAI platforms; evaluate open-source alternatives.

Build deep learning workflows including training, evaluation, and continuous improvement loops.

Collaborate on data collection, preprocessing, and feature engineering for ML pipelines.

BACKEND ENGINEERING

Architect and develop scalable RESTful APIs and GraphQL endpoints using Node.js / FastAPI / Express.

Build and maintain full-stack features using Next.js (App Router), integrating server-side rendering, API routes, and React components.

Design and manage relational and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or equivalent); write efficient queries and manage schema migrations.

Implement authentication, authorisation, and security best practices (JWT, OAuth 2.0, role-based access control).

Containerise services with Docker and contribute to CI/CD pipelines for reliable, automated deployments.

Integrate AI/ML model inference endpoints into backend services, handling async processing, queuing, and latency optimisation.

Write clean, well-tested, and well-documented backend code; participate actively in code reviews.

VERSION CONTROL & COLLABORATION

Use Git and GitHub for all version control workflows — branching strategies, pull requests, and code reviews.

Contribute to technical documentation, architecture decision records, and internal knowledge bases.

Duration & Compensation

Duration: 6 Months

Stipend: Base ₹8,000/month — up to ₹15,000/month based on performance

Post-Internship: Full-time opportunity as AI/ML Engineer (₹6–8 LPA) based on performance

Perks & Benefits

Hands-on experience shipping real AI products used by actual customers.

Mentorship from senior engineers and industry experts in AI/ML and backend development.

Exposure to the full development lifecycle — from model training to production deployment.

Collaborative, innovative, and flexible work environment.

Accelerated growth path with a clear route to a full-time engineering role.
