Job Description

Join us as a Senior NLP Engineer – Chatbots and help us push AI Chatbots forward within Artificial Intelligence (AI).

You'll be working out of Chandigarh (full-time), and honestly, the day-to-day is going to revolve around AI Chatbots and Neural Network Architectures. We're not looking for someone who just ticks boxes - we want someone who actually cares about ai chatbots.

On paper, we'd expect M.Tech (AI/ML) and somewhere around 13 years of experience, but we're just as interested in how you think as in what's on your resume.

Pay-wise, we're offering INR 33.1-73.0 LPA - fair for the senior level band and open to discussion based on what you bring.

Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role. Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round.

Most days include at least one review checkpoint where progress is discussed against the plan for the week. The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding. The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions.

Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth. Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done. The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings.

Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions.

A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work. Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held.

Interested candidates should be prepared to walk through relevant past work during the interview process. The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage. References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process.

Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay. The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function.

No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership.

In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments. There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls.

Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy. Disagreement on approach is expected and welcomed, provided it's backed by reasoning rather than preference alone.

The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager. New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables. Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band.
