About the Role

We’re building the next generation of AI-powered business software, and we’re looking for people who want to shape that future with us. With Lumen, we’re reimagining how users interact with CRM — moving beyond screens, menus and dashboards to an intelligent interface where users can simply ask AI to take actions, retrieve knowledge, generate insights and get work done. With Agent Studio, we’re enabling businesses to build, test and deploy their own AI agents for real-world workflows. And with Invorto, we’re bringing AI to voice, allowing businesses to create intelligent voice agents tailored to their customer and operational use cases.

What makes this especially exciting is the stage and scale of the opportunity. You’ll get to work on genuinely hard problems across LLMs, agents, reasoning, orchestration, voice AI, evaluation, reliability and enterprise security — not as isolated experiments, but as products used in real business workflows. You’ll have the opportunity to build zero-to-one, own meaningful parts of the product end-to-end, work closely with customers, experiment rapidly, and see your work reach production at scale.

Why join now? Because the playbook for enterprise AI is still being written. You won’t just be implementing someone else’s roadmap — you’ll help define the product, architecture and experiences that become that playbook. Expect high ownership, fast iteration, hard technical and product problems, direct customer impact, and the chance to build AI systems that have to work reliably in the real world — not just in a demo.

About the Role

We are looking for a Senior AI/ML Backend Engineer to help build the core intelligence layer powering Lumen and Agent Studio. You will design and ship production-grade backend systems that integrate LLMs into real agentic workflows — taking actions, retrieving knowledge and generating insights inside a live CRM product used by real businesses. This is a hands-on, build-focused role with direct ownership of systems that ship to production.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build and scale backend services in Python that power LLM-driven and agentic features within Lumen and Agent Studio.
• Build and productionize agentic AI systems — including planning, tool use, orchestration, memory and multi-step task execution.
• Integrate LLMs into core product workflows, focusing on reliability, latency, cost and correctness at production scale.
• Build robust APIs and services that connect AI agents with CRM data, business logic and third-party systems.
• Own evaluation, testing and monitoring for AI features to ensure they behave reliably in real-world, not just demo, conditions.
• Collaborate closely with product, design and other engineers to take features from zero to one and iterate rapidly based on real usage and customer feedback.
• Work directly with customers and customer-facing teams to understand real workflows, debug issues and translate feedback into product and engineering decisions.

What We’re Looking For

• 2–4 years of professional backend engineering experience, with strong hands-on Python skills.
• Design and build LLM-powered agentic systems using frameworks such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, AutoGen, or CrewAI to automate complex, multi-step workflows.
• Should be hands-on with traditional Machine learning frameworks like Pytorch, Scikit-learn
• Solid understanding of API design, backend architecture, databases and distributed systems fundamentals.
• Familiarity with LLM orchestration concepts — prompting, tool/function calling, RAG, agent frameworks, evaluation and guardrails.
• Comfort working in a fast-paced, ambiguous, zero-to-one environment where you’ll be defining as much as building.
• Strong communication skills — this is a customer-facing role, and you will be expected to clearly articulate technical concepts, decisions and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including customers.

Good to Have

• Experience with enterprise security, reliability or observability practices for AI systems.
• Prior experience working on CRM, SaaS or other enterprise business software.
• Exposure to voice AI or real-time systems.

About the role

We are building AI systems that read, understand and act on real business documents, bank statements, financial reports, policy documents and forms and putting them into production where accuracy and cost both matters.

This is not a research role and it is not a prompt-writing role. You will own features end to end: pick and deploy open-source models, build the pipelines around them, measure whether they actually work on our documents, drive the cost per document down, and keep the whole thing running in production.

You will work closely with the engineering and product teams, and your work will be directly used by business users from day one.

What you will do

Deploy and evaluate open-source models

• Select, deploy and benchmark open-source LLMs and vision-language models for specific, narrow use cases not general chat.
• Build evaluation sets from real documents and define what "good" means numerically (field-level accuracy, extraction recall, hallucination rate) before shipping.
• Run structured comparisons between models and approaches, and write up the trade-offs so the team can make a decision.
• Apply quantization, batching and other optimizations to fit models into a sensible GPU budget.

Build and optimize AI orchestration

• Design multi-step pipelines that combine deterministic code, ML models and LLM calls and know when not to use an LLM.
• Optimize for latency, cost and reliability: caching, batching, request routing, fallback tiers, retries and graceful degradation.
• Instrument pipelines so failures are visible and traceable rather than silent.

Ship to production

• Package models and services with Docker, expose them behind clean APIs, and deploy them to our GPU and CPU infrastructure.
• Handle the unglamorous production concerns: cold starts, timeouts, concurrency limits, versioning, rollback and monitoring.
• Own on-call-style responsibility for the AI features you build, including cost tracking.

Must-have skills

Programming & engineering

• Strong Python: type hints, async/await, dataclasses/Pydantic, clean module design, testing.
• REST API development with FastAPI (or Flask/Django with a willingness to move to FastAPI).
• Git, code review discipline, and the ability to write code someone else can maintain.
• Comfortable in Linux and on the command line.

Machine learning fundamentals

• Working knowledge of PyTorch and the Hugging Face ecosystem (transformers, tokenizers, accelerate).
• Understanding of inference-time concepts: tokenization, context windows, batching, precision (FP16/BF16/INT8), memory footprint.
• Ability to read a model card and a paper well enough to judge whether a model fits a use case.

Document processing

• Hands-on experience with at least two of: pypdfium2, PyMuPDF, pdfplumber, pdfminer.six, Docling, Unstructured, Surya, DocTR, LayoutLM family.
• Practical OCR experience (Tesseract, PaddleOCR, or a cloud OCR) and an understanding of when OCR is the wrong tool.
• Experience extracting tables from PDFs and dealing with merged cells, multi-line rows, and inconsistent column layouts.

Strongly preferred

You will be a much stronger candidate with any of these. We do not expect all of them.

Model serving & optimization

• vLLM, TGI, Ollama, llama.cpp, or Triton Inference Server.
• Quantization formats and tooling: GGUF, AWQ, GPTQ, bitsandbytes, ONNX Runtime, INT8 export.
• Serverless GPU platforms: Modal, RunPod, Replicate, Baseten including cold-start and container-lifecycle management.
• LoRA / QLoRA fine-tuning with PEFT for narrow, task-specific improvements.

Vision-language models

• Practical use of open VLMs: Qwen2.5-VL, InternVL, Granite Vision, Molmo, Phi-Vision, or similar.
• Awareness of where VLMs hallucinate especially on numeric and financial content and patterns for constraining them (using the model for layout only, sourcing values from the text layer, constrained decoding).

Orchestration & pipelines

• Workflow orchestration: Dagster, Airflow, Prefect, or Temporal.
• Async job patterns: Celery, RQ, or platform-native spawn/poll patterns.
• LLM orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Haystack) with the judgement to know when plain Python is a better answer.
• Structured output enforcement: Instructor, Outlines, XGrammar, JSON schema / tool-use modes.

Evaluation & observability

• Building golden datasets and regression suites for extraction tasks.
• Eval tooling: promptfoo, DeepEval, Ragas, or in-house harnesses.
• LLM tracing and monitoring: Langfuse, Arize Phoenix, LangSmith, OpenTelemetry.

Nice extras

• Rule engines and policy evaluation (Open Policy Agent / Rego, Drools, rule-engine).
• Experience in fintech, lending, insurance or accounting documents.
• Handling of PII and data-security practices in document pipelines.
• Contributions to open-source ML or document-processing projects.

Why join us

• Real production ownership from month one your work goes to actual users, not a demo.
• Genuinely hard technical problems in document AI, not wrappers over an API.
• Small team, short decision cycles, direct access to leadership.
• Budget and freedom to evaluate and adopt new open-source models as they land.

To apply: send your CV along with a short note on one AI system you have taken to production what it did, what the accuracy was, and what broke.
