🚨 We’re Building a “Top 1% Engineering Org”


We’re building a high-talent-density, AI-first R&D organization from scratch — inside a publicly listed company undergoing a full-scale transformation.

Think:

→ Rewriting legacy systems into AI-native architectures

→ Embedding LLMs + Agentic AI into core workflows

→ Reimagining platforms, infra, and data systems for the next decade

This is the kind of shift you’d expect from Google, Microsoft, or Meta —

Except you get to build it from day 0 → scale it globally.


About the Role / Team

We are building a next-generation AI-first R&D organization in Bengaluru, focused on solving complex problems across LLMs, Agentic AI systems, distributed computing, and enterprise-scale architectures.


This initiative is part of a publicly listed global company investing heavily in AI-driven transformation, re-architecting its platforms into intelligent, autonomous systems powered by large language models, workflows, and decision engines.


You will be working on:

  • Agentic AI systems & LLM-powered workflows
  • Distributed, scalable backend systems
  • Enterprise-grade AI platforms
  • Automation-first engineering environments


🚀 The Mandate

Own and evolve the technical backbone of an AI-first enterprise platform.


You will define architecture across LLM-powered systems, distributed services, and data platforms — and lead critical transformations from legacy → AI-native systems.


🧩 What You’ll Do

  • Architect large-scale distributed systems powering AI-driven workflows
  • Lead 0→1 and 1→N platform builds (LLM integrations, agentic systems, orchestration layers)
  • Redesign legacy systems into scalable, modular, AI-native architectures
  • Drive system design excellence across teams (APIs, infra, observability, reliability)
  • Make high-stakes decisions on trade-offs (latency, cost, scalability, model performance)
  • Mentor senior engineers and influence engineering culture/org standards
  • Partner with product, data, and leadership on long-term technical strategy


🧠 What We’re Looking For

  • Proven track record building high-scale backend or platform systems
  • Deep expertise in distributed systems, microservices, cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure)
  • Strong exposure to data systems/infra / Data / real-time architectures
  • Experience or strong interest in LLMs, GenAI, or AI system design
  • Exceptional system design, abstraction, and problem-solving ability
  • High ownership mindset — you think in terms of systems, not tickets
  • Strong coding skills in Python / Java / Go / Node.js
  • Solid understanding of data structures, system design basics, and backend architecture
  • Experience building scalable APIs and services
  • Familiarity or curiosity around AI/LLMs, async systems, or event-driven design
  • Strong debugging, problem-solving, and ownership mindset
  • Solve hard system problems (latency, scale, reliability)
  • Drive cross-team technical decisions and standards
  • Mentor senior engineers and influence org-wide architecture 
  • Design large-scale distributed systems and backend platforms
  • Mentorship & Technical Leadership 
  • Expertise in system design, scalability, and performance optimization


Nice to Have

  • Experience integrating LLMs, vector databases, or AI pipelines
  • Contributions to architecture at scale
  • Experience with Agentic AI / LLM orchestration frameworks
  • Background in product engineering or platform companies
  • Exposure to global-scale systems (millions of users / high throughput)


🔥 What Sets You Apart

  • Built platforms used by millions of users / high-throughput systems
  • Experience with event-driven systems, stream processing, or infra platforms
  • Prior work on AI/ML platforms, model serving, or intelligent systems

Looking to hire a single backend engineer who will become a part of the core team, with the track to become a part of the leadership at our company.

 

Candidate should have worked in startups, possess strong programming skills in Python, displays a sense of ownership and is highly energetic and eager to learn state-of-the-art tech and ML.

 

A minimum of 2 years of relevant experience is preferred.

 

2022 or later year pass outs - please apply only if you have relevant full-time and at least 2 prior internships experience

 

Representative (not exhaustive) responsibilities:

  • Assess the current design and infrastructure of the backend server, and continuously implement enhancements to make the systems more robust, reliable and responsive
  • Design, implement, test, and deploy APIs with Python on Linux servers
  • Enhance back-end functionality and integrate with the front end to deliver a fully functional product
  • Implement and set up automated tests to periodically test backend infrastructure for reliability, security and performance
  • Design new data pipelines to enable the production deployment of new models
  • Mentor junior employees and interns in the company
  • Additionally, interest and ability to contribute to the continuous enhancement of our state-of-the-art NLP model pipeline and Inferencing engine is a big plus
  • Be ready to roll up your sleeves and participate in customer calls, understand our ICP well, do research around product features, etc.

 

Fast Track Your Application

Think about the ICP for ContractKen. Sign up for a trial plan, experience the product and provide feedback on how to improve the current experience of the product to add immediate value to the ICP. We don't need you to fully code any feature in its entirety and are not looking for free work. The idea is to identify folks who get** what we are trying to do with ContractKen and find faster alignment with the right candidate.

 

Do not apply if

You're looking for your first, real-world model building, ML/AI role. We believe that deploying existing models (open source and proprietary) in production and delivering real business value to our customers is 10x more important than hyperparameter tuning or the latest algorithm implementation. While we'd love to entertain experienced ML data scientists, the emphasis on MLOps is as much as it is on experimentation.
