Opening for Software Engineer – Technology Development (GIS)

We are working on a rich, varied, and exciting technology stack that is at the cutting edge of multitudes of technologies.

It incorporates the following:

– AI/ML for audio processing and language understanding (NLP/NLU) so that even less-literate
people are able to perform sophisticated functions through their mobile phones
– These functions include automated question-answering using BERT deep-learning based models
on sexual health, labour rights, maternal and child nutrition, and agriculture, among other topics.
– Added to it is a voice Bot that performs better than Google’s Dialog Flow at entity extraction in
local Indian languages, built on top of libraries like Polyglot and iNLTK
– These are delivered on an inbuilt distributed and scalable IVR stack which has served more than
a 3 million users and 150 global and national partners
– And an entirely voice-driven Android stack which brings urban/semi-urban users to the community
as well, to ask question, register grievances, and mentor peers
– A rich Analytics system which is at the heart of understanding the engagement and impact of
different social sector interventions

can be digitized in real time, to run predicted analytics with a whole range of applications
