Job Description & Key Responsibilities
nference is an AIβfirst healthcare technology company that leverages largeβscale computing, machine learning and domain expertise to accelerate biomedical discovery. Founded with the ambition to solve some of the toughest challenges in healthcare, the firm builds platforms that enable pharmaceutical companies, research institutes and clinicians to extract actionable insights from complex clinical, molecular and imaging data. By combining software engineering excellence with deep lifeβscience knowledge, nference helps turn massive, unstructured datasets into knowledge that can improve patient outcomes and speed up drug development.
The Bangalore office is a hub of interdisciplinary talent where software engineers work sideβbyβside with AI researchers, physicians and product leaders. The culture emphasizes ownership, curiosity and continuous learning; engineers are encouraged to question assumptions, prototype rapidly and take responsibility for their code from design through production. The hybrid model allows team members to collaborate inβperson while also enjoying flexibility after the initial onboarding period.
As a Software Engineer (1β2 years of experience), you will be part of the backend engineering team building reliable services that power nferenceβs AIβdriven products. You will write clean, testable code, design APIs, and ensure data security and compliance with healthcare regulations. Under senior guidance, you will gradually own endβtoβend components, contribute to lowβlevel design documents, and participate in the full software development lifecycle.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Write, test and maintain productionβgrade backend code in Python or Go.
2. Design, develop and document RESTful APIs and microβservices.
3. Create and optimise database schemas and queries using PostgreSQL/MySQL.
4. Implement unit tests, integration tests and CI pipelines to ensure high code quality.
5. Debug production issues, monitor performance, and contribute to incident resolution.
6. Follow secure coding standards and PHI handling protocols to protect sensitive health data.
7. Participate in code reviews, provide constructive feedback and incorporate peer suggestions.
8. Collaborate with product managers, data scientists and frontβend engineers to translate requirements into technical solutions.
9. Contribute to lowβlevel design (LLD) documents and technical specifications.
10. Stay updated with emerging cloud services, containerisation (Docker) and AIβassisted development tools.
Tech Stack: Python / Go, PostgreSQL or MySQL, Git, Linux, Docker, AWS (basic), REST/GraphQL APIs, CI/CD (Jenkins/GitHub Actions), monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana), and AIβassisted coding assistants.
Growth Path: Starting as an associate engineer, you can progress to Senior Engineer, Tech Lead, and eventually Architecture or Product Management roles, with exposure to AI research and healthcare domain expertise. The company invests in continuous learning through internal workshops, conference sponsorships and mentorship programs.
Why Join nference? You will work on missionβcritical healthcare problems, gain handsβon experience with cuttingβedge AI and dataβintensive technologies, and see the tangible impact of your code on realβworld biomedical research. The hybrid work model, generous wellness perks, and a culture that values curiosity and collaboration make it an ideal place for fresh talent to accelerate their career.
