AI Engineer

About us:

ConveGenius is an impact-first organization, building platforms and systems for public education and skilling at population scale. We work closely with governments, ecosystem partners, social enterprises, philanthropies and individual & institutional investors, with a goal to deliver the highest return on investment across offerings that improve learning, teaching, and governance. Unlike traditional ed-tech companies that deliver content, we build infrastructure platforms that integrate deeply into public delivery systems, while enabling our partners to scale their missions with measurable results. Today, we operate across 22+ Indian states, trusted by governments and institutional investors alike, for aligning policy priorities with last mile impact. What started with belief and hope 13 years ago is now backed by evidence.

Our offerings include

• SwiftChat (the platform on which we build with ecosystem partners)
• SwiftPAL - validated by a two-year RCT led by Nobel laureate Prof. Michael Kremer (Development Innovation Lab, University of Chicago), whose team found students gained "almost an additional 2 years of extra learning" in just 17 months
• Swiftee (the AI learning tutor built for Bharat).

Our team comprises of thinkers, builders, innovators, and doers who show up every day with a strong action bias to build for Bharat.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and deploy production-grade AI/ML systems using LLMs, NLP, Computer Vision, Speech, and multimodal models.
• Build agentic AI applications and workflows using tool calling, planning, memory, retrieval, state management, and human-in-the-loop mechanisms.
• Develop RAG and knowledge-grounded systems using embeddings, retrieval, reranking, and context optimization.
• Experiment with model adaptation techniques such as SFT, LoRA/QLoRA, synthetic data generation, prompt optimization, and knowledge distillation.
• Design evaluation pipelines for accuracy, groundedness, hallucination, safety, latency, reliability, and cost.
• Integrate AI systems with APIs, databases, vector stores, and backend services.
• Collaborate with product, engineering, research, and education teams to take AI solutions from prototype to production.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or masters degree in computer science, Engineering, AI/ML, or a related field.
• 2–4 years of industry experience building machine learning or AI systems.
• Strong understanding of machine learning, deep learning, transformers, embeddings, and LLMs.
• Strong programming skills in Python with hands-on experience using PyTorch or similar frameworks.
• Experience building real-world applications in one or more areas such as LLMs, RAG, NLP, Computer Vision, Speech, OCR, or multimodal AI.
• Experience with LLM fine-tuning or model adaptation techniques such as SFT, LoRA/QLoRA, distillation, or preference optimization is preferred.
• Exposure to agentic AI systems, including tool calling, workflow orchestration memory, planning, or multi-agent systems.
• Familiarity with frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain, or similar.
• Experience with model evaluation and defining meaningful offline and production metrics.
• Familiarity with Docker, cloud platforms, APIs, CI/CD, model serving, and monitoring are preferred.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to independently experiment, debug, and improve AI systems.

What's Expected from the Candidate

• Own AI features end-to-end — research through deployment and iteration.
• Write clean, tested, production-quality code.
• Prototype fast and decide based on measurable results.
• Balance quality, reliability, latency, cost, and safety — not just demos.
• Stay current with LLM, agentic, and multimodal AI developments.
• Communicate technical trade-offs clearly across teams.
• Own the reliability and safety of systems deployed at scale, especially in child- facing educational contexts.
