You will be part of an expert engineering team focused on building scalable, high-performance NLP solutions.

Job Responsibilities:

  • End-to-End System Design: Design and implement the full workflow of NLP applications, from web-based front-end to API server and backend. You’ll ensure seamless interaction between components and build robust, scalable systems.
  • API and Backend Development: Work with APIs to integrate NLP models, ensuring smooth data flow between the frontend and backend systems.
  • Model Integration: Collaborate with NLP researchers and mid-tier engineers to take models from prototype to production, ensuring efficient and optimized system performance.
  • Database Management: Implement efficient indexing, querying, and management of data in vector databases, enabling fast and accurate retrieval of information.
  • Scalability: Design systems that can scale efficiently to meet increasing data and user demands, ensuring the infrastructure can support high traffic and complex queries.
  • Collaboration and Leadership: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including NLP researchers and data engineers, to ensure seamless integration and system reliability. Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the team’s engineering best practices.

Job Requirements:

  • Degree in Computer Science or related technical field, with a strong understanding of system architecture, indexing, and querying.
  • Familiarity with LLMs (Large Language Models) and NLP techniques, even if not extensive (recent experience in the last 2-3 years is sufficient).
  • Experience with vector databases.
  • Proven ability to design systems that are scalable, reliable, and efficient.
  • Ability to collaborate with researchers to bridge the gap between research and engineering, taking prototypes to production-level systems.
  • Preferably from a product-based or SaaS environment.

Why You Should Join:

This is an opportunity to work with a growing, highly collaborative team at the cutting edge of NLP technologies. The company offers a highly competitive salary package, which includes a flexible hybrid work arrangement and a generous bonus structure. You will be empowered to take ownership of complex projects, grow as a leader, and continuously sharpen your technical skills in an environment that values curiosity and innovation.
