About the role

Staff Engineer to own Sarvam’s backend system for agent, campaign, and user management, with end-to-end ownership of data model, APIs, orchestration, reliability, and performance for a multi-tenant SaaS platform, in a fast-growing conversational AI context.

Responsibilities

  • The end-to-end backend for agent, campaign, and user management — from data modeling through API design to deployment, in Python and FastAPI
  • Workflow orchestration with Temporal for complex, long-running, stateful operations
  • Performance and reliability for a multi-tenant SaaS platform operating at sub-second latency SLOs
  • Observability — logging, metrics, tracing — so the team can debug production confidently and quickly
  • Integration testing — the test infrastructure that lets us ship fast without breaking customer-facing systems
  • Close collaboration with the frontend team (Next.js) to deliver an experience worthy of the underlying platform
  • Setting the design-first and documentation-first engineering culture within your team — RFCs before code, decisions written down, no tribal knowledge

Qualifications

  • 5–10 years building production backend systems, with deep expertise in Python and FastAPI (or Golang)
  • A track record of full-stack ownership — you’ve designed systems end-to-end, made the trade-offs, and operated them in production
  • Hands-on experience with workflow orchestration at scale, ideally Temporal
  • Built and operated high-scale distributed systems — multi-tenant, low-latency, resilient under real load
  • Strong PostgreSQL and Redis fundamentals — schema design, query performance, caching strategy
  • The judgment to know when to build vs. buy, when to optimize vs. ship, when to abstract vs. inline
