Overview

You will build and own services inside the document intelligence harness — the layer that sits between our vision models and the enterprises consuming them.

About Sarvam

Sarvam is building the bedrock of Sovereign AI for India. The company is developing India's full-stack sovereign AI platform, building across research, models, infrastructure and applications with a singular focus on making AI genuinely work for India.

Requirements & Eligibility

• 1–2 years building backend services that have actually run in production
• Strong fundamentals in Go or Python — you can write clean, tested, concurrent code and reason about what it does under load
• Solid grasp of HTTP and REST API design, and of async/background job processing
• Comfort with PostgreSQL and Redis; you understand transactions, indexing, and where state should live
• Working familiarity with Docker; exposure to Kubernetes

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain REST APIs for document submission, job status, and result retrieval — both synchronous and long-running async flows
• Implement Temporal workflows and activities for multi-stage document pipelines: split, pre-process, infer, post-process, validate, assemble
• Write the pre- and post-processing that decides real accuracy: page segmentation, de-skewing, layout handling, schema validation, output normalisation
• Instrument everything — latency and cost per stage, per page, per model — so that regressions are visible before customers find them
• Build internal tooling: replay harnesses, evaluation runners, golden-set regression suites for extraction accuracy
• Debug production issues across the stack: stuck workflows, GPU queue backpressure, malformed inputs, partial failures
• Work directly with the models team to turn model behaviour into harness behaviour
