About the Role
We are hiring a Backend Engineer to work across Sarvam’s Studio media platform — spanning AI dubbing, live translation, and the shared service foundation that powers all Studio products (voice cloning, stem separation, lip sync, music generation, and more). You will build and maintain production services, ML pipeline libraries, and platform SDKs that together enable multilingual media processing at scale for enterprise customers and Sarvam Studio users.
The work cuts across multiple codebases: a core ML pipeline library (ASR, translation, TTS, audio processing),



production services for dubbing and live translation, and a shared platform SDK that provides common capabilities to every Studio service.
What You’ll Do
Service & Infrastructure
- Design and optimize production FastAPI services for dubbing and live translation — multi-stage task orchestration, rate-limited scheduling, and backpressure controls for concurrent workloads
- Build and maintain distributed worker architectures with independent scaling per pipeline stage and automatic recovery of stuck or failed tasks
- Own the data layer — async ORM models, schema migrations, and query optimization on PostgreSQL
- Implement real-time features — WebSocket-based job tracking for dubbing and streaming audio pipelines for live translation
- Manage Kubernetes deployments — Helm charts, secrets management, ingress configuration, and multi-role container images

ML Pipeline & Library
- Extend and maintain the core dubbing libra
