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
- Own and ship end-to-end product journeys (mobile-first): onboarding → assessment runner → results → career map → parent alignment.
- Build/maintain backend APIs and shared platform capabilities (auth, sessions, data contracts, telemetry).
- Integrate GenAI responsibly: prompt/versioning, eval harnesses, guardrails, fallbacks (AI is core, not a side feature).
- Set the engineering quality bar: code reviews, tests, CI/CD, release gating, observability, performance budgets.
- Mentor and lead a lean pod; grow into Lead Engineer responsibility within ~6 months based on delivery.
Must-have skills
- Strong TypeScript + React/Next.js (or equivalent) and proven experience shipping state-heavy UIs.
- Backend/API development (Node/NestJS or Python/FastAPI) with solid error handling and clean contracts.
- Good SQL fundamentals and hands-on PostgreSQL.
- Comfort using AI coding copilots (Copilot/Cursor) to accelerate scaffolding/tests/refactors — with rigorous verification.
- Startup mindset: ownership, ambiguity tolerance, and ability to ship weekly.
Good to have
- Hands-on GenAI product work: tool calling, RAG/embeddings, vector DBs (Qdrant/Pinecone), LangChain/LlamaIndex (or similar).
- Experience with conversational flows (WhatsApp or chat-like UX).
- DevOps/observability basics (logs/metrics/traces).
- Public proof of ownership: OSS, side projects, hackathons, shipped 0→1 features.
Location: Pune (on-site for first 3 months; hybrid/WFH flexibility thereafter)
Employment Type: Full-time Experience: 3–4 years (high ownership; leadership potential)
Compensation: Competitive (₹12–15 LPA fixed cash) + ESOP (equity ownership, founding-early employee level).
Standard benefits: Health insurance, paid leave, learning/training budget.
Joining Timeline: 2–3 weeks / Immediate
Why join (founding team)
- Meaningful ownership: ESOP at an early stage (real upside, not token equity).
- Career acceleration: scope and autonomy typically seen much later in larger orgs.
- AI-first engineering culture: copilots + LLM workflows across SDLC, with strong discipline on correctness and safety.
- High-impact mission: reduce confusion and conflict in student career decisions; help families make better choices, transform student lives by making great learning personal.
- Lean, high-trust team: direct access to founder + fast decisions; minimal bureaucracy.
Hiring process (fast)
- 20-min intro call (fit + expectations).
- 60–90 min technical deep dive (system design + trade-offs).
- Practical exercise (1–2 hours max) — focused and relevant (assessment flow or GenAI eval harness).

About GeniWay Technologies
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.
