Job Title

PickCV is an AI-native talent intelligence platform building a unified system that connects job seekers, early talent, and hiring systems.We convert fragmented talent capability data into structured, machine-readable signals—enabling more reliable evaluation and decision-making at scale.At its core, PickCV is building a unified intelligence layer that models:• skills• experience• learning behavior• market demandAbout the Role:Backend + AI Systems | ₹10,000/month stipend | 6-month internshipLocation: Mostly remote — preference for Hyderabad, Vizag, Bengaluru, or MumbaiWhy this role existsThe Problem: The Talent and Hiring intelligence systems still operate on limited, inconsistent signals.The Gap: Most solutions improve how information looks. We focus on how it is interpreted by systems.The Current Phase: Building on our B2C resume intelligence product, we are now shipping initial modules as part of a B2B POC. The focus of this phase is to evolve these systems into reliable, production-grade infrastructure that performs consistently under real-world usage.What you’ll be working onYou’ll build the AI systems and product engineering.AI systems:• Resume parsing and structured information extraction• Skill identification from resumes and job descriptions• LLM-powered resume improvement systems• Talent-to-job matching models• AI agents for career gap analysis and recommendations• Interview intelligence (simulation and feedback systems)Product & platform:• PickCV web platform• APIs powering AI workflows• User dashboards and resume tools• Talent profile and data systems• Integrations with learning and hiring platformsAI-native workflows:• LLM pipelines and orchestration• Embeddings and similarity search• AI-based scoring and ranking systems• Automation agentsWhat you’ll own• Systems that convert unstructured data into reliable signals• Production-grade backend services and APIs (Python + TypeScript)• AI-driven workflows for analysis, matching, and automation• Data pipelines where accuracy, reliability, and failure handling matterThe kind of person we wantThis is not a “learn and observe” role. This is a “build and figure it out” role.• You see a problem and try to solve it• You learn tools quickly when needed• You use AI tools to move faster, not just experiment• You enjoy figuring things out independently• You care about shipping real systemsYou don’t need to know everything. But you must be comfortable learning fast and building fast.What matters mostOutput > credentials• You’ve built real projects (not just coursework)• You can take ideas from 0 → working product• You don’t wait for perfect specs or constant direction• You operate effectively in ambiguityDo NOT apply if• Your experience is limited to courses, bootcamps, or certifications• You haven’t built anything end-to-end• You need constant direction to move forwardTech (indicative, not mandatory)Languages: Python, JavaScript / TypeScriptAI: LLM APIs, prompt pipelines, embeddings, vector searchWeb: React / Next.js, backend APIs (FastAPI / Node.js)Data & infra: PostgreSQL, vector databases, cloud platformsNote: We move fast. Learnability > specific tools.Who this is ideal for• Students in CS / AI / Data Science• Recent graduates who enjoy building• Developers already experimenting with AI tools• People who want to build products, not just complete assignmentsWhat you gain• Experience building real AI-powered systems (not demos)• Direct exposure to product and system design decisions• End-to-end ownership from idea → production• Real-world experience with modern AI workflowsThis is hands-on startup engineering experience. Not simulated. Not sandboxed.The trade-off: Let's be practically honest₹10,000/month | 6 months | Remote• Lower short-term pay• Higher ownership, faster learning, real system exposurePost 6 months → Exceptional performers → full-time roles & early equity participation
