About the role

Senior Software Engineer to join Enterprise Architecture on a focused AI experimentation team in Gurugram, partnering across Internal Engineering to explore, prototype, and validate emerging AI capabilities before they become formal roadmap priorities.

Responsibilities

  • Design and run experiments that test emerging AI capabilities against real internal use cases, before they're formally prioritized. Condense the learnings of those experiments and document them so that the knowledge can be used across the org.
  • Build lightweight prototypes to validate or kill ideas quickly
  • Stay current on new AI tooling and models, and turn relevant developments into concrete internal proof points
  • Partner with product, platform, and internal engineering teams to hand off validated capabilities once they're ready to move from experiment to production
  • Maintain technical rigor and clear documentation of findings, even for work that doesn't ship
  • Identify and communicate risks, unknowns, and open questions clearly to stakeholders

Qualifications

  • Has 6+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Deep experience with at least one modern programming language (Python, Typescript, Go, Rust, etc.)
  • Strong technical judgment and the ability to independently solve complex engineering problems
  • Excellent communication skills and comfort collaborating across teams and disciplines
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity, scoping and running experiments when the right approach isn't known yet
  • Hands-on experience prototyping with LLMs or agentic systems (evals, fine-tuning, RAG, tool use, orchestration frameworks)
  • Has the ability to iterate fast, especially when requirements are not clear
  • Keeps up with emerging AI tooling and models, not just what's already mainstream
  • Collaborative, detail-oriented, and passionate about building reliable, usable software
