At Prodigal, we are building AI Agents for loan servicing and collections. Founded in 2018 by IITB alumni, our journey began when our founders Shantanu and Sangram faced the antiquated the $13B+ lending/collections industry was mostly using pen and paper and decided to build the first real intelligence layer for debt recovery.

Today, we stand at the forefront of a seismic shift in the industry, building Agentic AI applications for loan servicing and collections. Powered by our cutting-edge platform, Prodigal s Intelligence Engine (PIE), we re creating the next-generation agentic workforce - one that empowers companies to achieve unprecedented levels of operational excellence and intelligence.

- Solid Python fundamentals - you are comfortable writing clean, maintainable code and debugging production issues.
- Some experience working with LLMs: prompt engineering, API integrations, or building simple pipelines or agents.
