About the Role

We are looking for a Full Stack AI Engineer with 3–5 years of experience to build and manage Sarvam's education product portfolio. You will work across the full stack — from AI model integration and backend services to frontend experiences — shipping products that reach learners, educators, and institutions at scale. This is a high-ownership engineering role where you will shape both the technical architecture and the product direction of Sarvam's education vertical.

What You'll Do

• Build and ship full stack features across Sarvam's education product portfolio, owning end-to-end implementation

• Integrate Sarvam's AI models — including speech, language, and multimodal capabilities — into education-focused products

• Design and maintain scalable backend services, APIs, and data pipelines that power education applications

• Develop responsive, accessible frontend interfaces tailored to diverse learner and educator experiences

• Manage the product portfolio lifecycle — from scoping and prioritisation to deployment and iteration

• Collaborate closely with product, design, and GTM teams to translate requirements into high-quality builds

• Monitor production systems, debug issues, and continuously improve reliability, performance, and user experience

• Contribute to technical architecture decisions and help define engineering standards for the education vertical

What We're Looking For

• 3–5 years of full stack engineering experience, with a proven track record of shipping production-grade products

• Strong proficiency in backend development (Python, Node.js, or equivalent) and frontend frameworks (React, Next.js, or equivalent)

• Hands-on experience integrating AI/ML models or APIs into user-facing products

• Solid understanding of system design, RESTful APIs, and cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure)

• Ability to manage multiple workstreams and product components simultaneously with high attention to detail

• Strong product sense — understands user needs and translates them into clean, functional experiences

• Clear communicator who collaborates effectively across engineering, product, and business teams

Bonus Points

• Prior experience building products for the education sector or EdTech platforms

• Familiarity with speech or NLP technologies, especially in Indian language contexts

• Experience with low-bandwidth or mobile-first product design for Tier 2/3 markets
