Role Overview:
- We are looking for an Associate AI/ML Engineer with 1–2 years of experience who is passionate about building AI-native applications and shipping practical solutions for real-world business problems.
- This is an execution-focused role for someone with strong Python fundamentals, working knowledge of frontend development, and hands-on exposure to LLM APIs and Generative AI workflows. The ideal candidate is comfortable working across backend, frontend, AI integrations, and rapid prototyping.
- You will work closely with the AI/ML Engineer, product teams, and business stakeholders to build, integrate, test, and deploy AI-driven features — from custom dashboards and micro apps to LLM-powered internal tools.
Key Responsibilities:
- Assist in designing and developing AI-native applications end-to-end (backend + frontend) under the guidance of senior engineers.
- Build and maintain REST APIs and backend services using Python frameworks such as FastAPI or Flask.
- Develop and contribute to custom dashboards, internal tools, and micro apps powered by AI insights.
- Integrate LLM APIs (OpenAI, Claude, Hugging Face) into real-world applications.
- Implement prompt engineering techniques to improve the quality and reliability of AI outputs.
- Support the development of RAG-based workflows using embeddings, vector databases, and external data sources.
- Build responsive frontend components and screens using React, Next.js, or similar frameworks.
- Rapidly prototype ideas using a “vibe coding” approach — fast iteration, quick validation, ship-and-learn mindset.
- Assist in debugging AI pipelines, backend workflows, and data-processing tasks.
- Work with databases such as PostgreSQL, Supabase, or similar systems.
- Collaborate with product, business, and engineering teams to convert requirements into working AI features.
- Stay updated with new AI tools, frameworks, and best practices through hands-on experimentation.
Required Skills & Qualifications:
- 1–2 years of experience in software development, AI/ML, backend development, or related roles. Strong internships may be considered.
- Strong Python fundamentals and hands-on coding experience.
- Experience with backend frameworks such as FastAPI, Flask, or similar.
- Working knowledge of frontend development using React, Next.js, or similar frameworks.
- Hands-on experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Claude, Hugging Face) in real applications.
- Knowledge of prompt engineering and practical LLM usage patterns.
- Understanding of RAG, embeddings, and vector search concepts.
- Familiarity with vector databases such as Pinecone, FAISS, Supabase Vector, or similar.
- Experience in REST API development and backend integrations.
- Working knowledge of databases such as PostgreSQL, Supabase, or similar.
- Comfort with data handling using Pandas / NumPy.
- Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
- Ability to ship features end-to-end with guidance, and willingness to take ownership of outcomes.
Good to Have:
- Experience with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar AI orchestration frameworks.
- Exposure to AI-native UX patterns (chat interfaces, copilots, assistants).
- Experience building custom dashboards or internal tools.
- Familiarity with fast prototyping tools and workflows (v0, Bolt, Lovable, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.).
- Web scraping experience.
- Basic understanding of system design concepts.
- Deployment experience for backend or AI applications (Vercel, Railway, Render, etc.).
- Understanding of authentication and security basics.
Soft Skills:
- Ability to handle a mix of AI, backend, frontend, and business-related tasks.
- Strong ownership mindset and willingness to take responsibility for outcomes.
- Good communication skills and ability to explain technical ideas clearly.
- Comfortable working in uncertain, ambiguous, or problem-heavy situations.
- Eagerness to learn new technologies and apply them quickly.
- Collaborative attitude and ability to work with cross-functional teams.
