Associate Data & GenAI Engineer

Associate Data and GenAI Engineer
Location: Bangalore, IN
Experience: New grad or up to 1 year relevant internship/project experience
Why Work for Accuris
Accuris has a high-value, messy data problem that actually matters, and you'll work on systems that turn it into decision-grade products. You'll help ship production RAG with grounding, citations, and measurable quality, not demo-only prototypes.
Role Summary
You'll help build reliable data pipelines and GenAI-powered features that turn structured and unstructured data into high-quality datasets and useful product experiences. This role is hands-on: you'll ship production-ready components with good testing, observability, and documentation.
What You'll Do
Data Engineering

• Build and maintain ETL/ELT pipelines (batch and basic streaming where needed).
• Implement Medallion Architecture (Bronze, Silver, Gold): ingest, clean, standardize, curate.
• Write strong SQL for transformations, data quality checks, and analytics-ready outputs.
• Improve reliability: validation, monitoring, lineage, incident follow-ups.

GenAI Engineering

• Support RAG systems: document ingestion, chunking, embedding, indexing, retrieval, generation.
• Work with vector search concepts: embeddings, similarity search, filtering, hybrid retrieval basics.
• Apply prompt engineering practices: templates, grounding, structured outputs (JSON), guardrails.
• Help evaluate output quality: retrieval relevance, hallucination reduction, latency and cost awareness.

Must Have

• Bachelor's or Master's in CS/Engineering/Data or equivalent projects.
• Strong Python fundamentals and clean coding habits.
• Solid SQL (joins, window functions, aggregations).
• Understanding of data fundamentals: incremental loads, idempotency, schema basics, orchestration concepts.
• Awareness of Medallion architecture and why it's used.
• Basic familiarity with LLMs, RAG, embeddings, vector databases, and prompt engineering.

Nice to Have

• Databricks/Spark/Delta Lake exposure.
• Vector DB/search exposure
• Basic API and MCP development (FastAPI/FastMCP) and CI/CD experience.

Tech Stack
Python, SQL, Spark/Databricks, Delta/Parquet Lakehouse, orchestration tools, LLM APIs, vector search, Git, CI/CD, monitoring/logging.
Success Looks Like

• You ship pipelines that are reliable, tested, and observable.
• You deliver small GenAI features that are grounded (retrieval-backed), measurable, and cost-aware.
• You improve data quality and reduce defects through validation and better upstream handling.

Experience That Stands Out

• Built a medallion pipeline end-to-end with quality checks and documentation.
• Built a RAG demo with citations, chunking strategy, and retrieval evaluation.
• Compared retrieval methods (chunk size/overlap, hybrid search, filtering) with a simple eval harness.
