Immediate Start : Software Engineer, Backend (Generative AI)

About Pentimenti.ai

At Pentimenti.ai, we are on a mission to revolutionise the bid and proposal management industry. Based in Denmark and now building our core engineering team in Bangalore, we are developing a pioneering enterprise SaaS platform that leverages the power of Generative AI to automate and elevate the entire bid lifecycle. We are a small, ambitious team solving complex problems, and we're looking for a passionate builder to help us shape the future of our product and the industry.

About the Role

We are seeking a talented and driven mid-level Backend Software Engineer to join our foundational team in Bangalore. This is not just a coding role; you will be a critical part of our AI engine room, responsible for designing, building, and scaling the complex backend systems that power our Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) solutions. You will tackle challenges in advanced retrieval, context engineering, and long-running asynchronous processing, directly impacting our platform's intelligence and performance. As an early member of the team, you will have significant ownership and a clear path for growth into a leadership position.

What You'll Do :

• Design, develop, and maintain robust and scalable backend services using Python and FastAPI.
• Architect and implement production-grade Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines for our core proposal generation engine.
• Build and manage complex, long-running asynchronous workflows (e.g., multi-document analysis, compliance report generation) using Azure Function Apps, particularly leveraging orchestrators and activity functions (Durable Functions).
• Work extensively with our database stack, including MongoDB for application data and Qdrant for vector search and retrieval.
• Implement and refine techniques in prompt engineering, context engineering, and advanced retrieval to improve the quality and relevance of our AI-generated content.
• Collaborate closely with a small, cross-functional team to define features, solve problems, and deliver high-quality solutions.
• Take full ownership of features from conception to deployment, embodying a product-first mindset to ensure our solutions effectively solve customer problems.
