About the Role
This is a high-impact, individual contributor role where you'll own critical ML models and backend systems from Day 1, working directly with the founding team to shape product architecture.
Location : Udupi or Mangalore, Karnataka, India
Experience : 3-5 years
What You'll Build (First 12 Months)
- ML & Intelligence Systems (60% of role)
- Backend & Integration Infrastructure (40% of role)
Key Technical Challenges
Handling India-Specific Complexity : GST rules change quarterly;tax logic spans CGST / SGST / IGST / TDS with 20+ scenarios
Unreliable External APIs : GST Portal has 60-70% uptime;you'll build resilient systems with offline fallbacks and retry logic
On-Premises Integration : Deploy connector agents behind corporate firewalls with auto-update capabilitiesData Quality at Scale : Process invoices with messy, inconsistent data while maintaining 95%+ accuracyReal-Time vs Batch : Balance instant validation needs with rate-limited APIs (100 calls / min for Zoho, unpredictable for GST Portal)Must-Have Technical Skills
Machine Learning
3+ years of production ML experience (preferably in OCR, NLP, or document processing)Hands-on with AWS Textract, Tesseract , or similar OCR enginesExperience with GPT-4 / LLM fine-tuning for domain-specific tasksStrong understanding of anomaly detection , statistical analysis, and fraud detection algorithmsProficiency in Python (scikit-learn, TensorFlow / PyTorch, pandas, numpy)Backend Engineering
4+ years of backend development in Python (FastAPI / Django) or Node.JsStrong REST API design and OAuth 2.0 implementation experienceDatabase expertise : PostgreSQL (transactional integrity, audit logs) and Redis (caching, queues)Experience with ODBC connections and XML / SOAP APIs (for legacy system integration)Understanding of workflow orchestration (Temporal.Io, Celery, or Airflow)Integration & Data
Built integrations with unreliable third-party APIs (rate limiting, retry logic, error handling)Experience with webhook systems and real-time data syncKnowledge of data consistency patterns (atomicity, idempotency, rollback mechanisms)Comfortable with ETL pipelines and data validation at scaleNice-to-Have (But Not Required)
Prior experience with Indian accounting systems (Tally, Zoho Books, Busy, Vyapar)Understanding of Indian tax compliance (GST, TDS, e-invoicing)Familiarity with on-premise connector agents or desktop application deploymentExperience in fintech or financial auditing domainsKnowledge of Benford's Law and financial fraud detectionBackground in security compliance (SOC2, audit trails, access controls)Startup Expectations
Ownership : You'll own entire subsystems end-to-end (no hand-holding)Speed : Ship features in weeks, not months;iterate based on pilot client feedback
Pragmatism : Choose "build vs wrapper"Documentation : Write clear technical specs;you may hand off modules to junior engineers as team scales
On-Call Rotation : Be available for critical production issues (after Month 6)
