Build the future of software three years before everyone else does.
We're hiring sharp early-career engineers and QA who are already living in the AI-native future of software. If you're within four years of starting your career and you've shipped something with an AI agent — keep reading.
Who Thrives Here
Sharp, curious, AI-fluent, on-site.
We're not the right fit for everyone — and that's good. Read this carefully before you apply.
You'll thrive if…
- You already use Cursor / Claude to build, not just to autocomplete.
- You can read a vague spec and ask three sharp questions before writing a line.
- You write clearly in English — Slack messages, bug reports, prompts, all of it.
- You're within four years of starting your career and impatient to grow.
- You can spot what's wrong with an AI's diff before you accept it.
- You can relocate to (or already live in) Coimbatore.
Honestly, this isn't for you if…
- You want to work remotely or hybrid — both roles are on-site only.
- You're skeptical of AI-led coding and would rather type every character yourself.
- You've been a senior engineer for a decade and want a settled IC role.
- You'd rather be a ticket-clicker than someone who pushes back on specs.
- Sharp written English isn't your strength — most of the day is reading and writing.
Open Roles
Two ways to join us today.
Both roles are full-time, on-site at our Coimbatore office, targeted at sharp early-career candidates with 0–4 years of experience.
Hiring Process
Five steps. Two to three weeks, end-to-end.
No mystery, no ghosting. We respond within a few business days at every stage.
Apply
Submit the form on the role page. Tell us about a project where you used AI to ship something — even a tiny one. We read every application.
Short call
30 minutes with the hiring lead. We get to know each other. You ask hard questions. We do too.
AI coding exercise
We give you a small spec. You use Cursor (or your tool of choice) to ship a working solution in your own time. We care about how you direct the agent — not whether you typed every character yourself.
On-site interview
A half day at our Coimbatore office. Walk through your exercise, pair on a problem, meet the team, see the space. We take our time to make the right call.
Offer
Strong offer at top-of-market for early-career talent in Coimbatore. Clear growth path documented from day one.
What You Get
A few things we're proud of.
Extremely competitive pay
Our pay package is extremely competitive — we won't claim we're the absolute highest in Coimbatore, but we're confidently in that conversation for sharp early-career talent. Strong base, real growth tied to milestones, full benefits.
Real growth path
Documented from day one. A motivated junior is doing 4-year-mid-level work inside 18 months — and getting paid for it. Tech leadership tracks open at 24–30 months.
Sharp peers, every day
We hire for sharpness, not seniority. The person sitting next to you will push your thinking. You will push theirs. That's the bar, and it doesn't move.
