Name of the position: Platform Development Lead
Location: Coimbatore/Chennai/Bengaluru/Remote
Mode: Contract to Hire
Years of experience: 8+ Years
Shift: UK shift
This role will lead the transition from a working prototype to a scalable, multi-user
platform, enabling client development teams to safely build and extend reporting
agents through controlled APIs and reusable components.
You will be the first engineering lead oEshore, responsible for hands-on development,
platform design, and establishing engineering standards.
Key Responsibilities
Platform Build & Architecture
• Refactor an existing Python-based prototype into a modular, production-grade
platform
• Define clear service boundaries (API layer, orchestration, agent runtime, data
access)
• Build reusable components that allow extension without exposing core engine
logic
Agent Framework & Orchestration
• Design and implement frameworks for AI agents and reporting workflows
• Build orchestration for multi-step execution (deterministic + AI-driven)
• Ensure outputs are traceable, auditable, and suitable for financial reporting
Developer Enablement
• Enable internal/client developers to:
o build and deploy reporting agents
o reuse approved components
o access platform capabilities via APIs (without direct code access)
• Implement access controls and abstraction layers
Full Stack Development
• Lead development across:
o Backend: Python, FastAPI
o Frontend: Next.js
o Real-time: WebSockets
• Build simple internal interfaces for:
o job executiono monitoring
o output review
Code Governance & DevOps
• Own development workflows in Azure DevOps
• branching strategy, PRs, code reviews, merges
• Set up CI/CD pipelines, environments (dev/test/prod), and release processes
• Ensure code quality, testing, and maintainability standards
Team Leadership (Near-term)
• Act as the technical anchor oEshore
• Mentor and guide future hires as the team scales
• Establish best practices across code, documentation, and delivery
Required Skills
• Strong experience in Python backend development (FastAPI or similar)
• Experience with React / Next.js
• Familiarity with WebSockets or real-time systems
• Experience building APIs and scalable backend systems
• Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps (repos, pipelines, PR workflows)
• Understanding of modular architecture, access control, and system design
• Ability to operate in an early-stage, fast-evolving environment
Preferred / Nice to Have
• Experience with AI/LLM-based systems or agent workflows
• Exposure to financial services / insurance / reporting systems
• Experience with Databricks or similar data platforms
• Familiarity with workflow orchestration or event-driven systems
