About Swades AI
Swades AI is India's #1 Applied AI Research Lab, backed by Y Combinator and top Silicon Valley investors including Soma Capital and Slow Ventures. Our HealOS product line — AI Scribe, AI Receptionist, Prior Authorization, Benefit Verification, and Fax & Referrals — serves US independent medical practices. The same team also runs two additional SaaS products, PowerDialer.ai and OpenMic.ai. We're fully remote — our team works from different locations, and we hire people who've already done the exact job we're hiring for, not people who've managed someone else doing it.
About the Role
We hire for what you've already done, not for a title. This posting maps to real work — searches like Senior Full-Stack Engineer, SDE-3, Lead Engineer, Senior Software Engineer — and we're looking for someone who has done this exact job before.
You're at a Series A/B Indian startup — we're specifically looking for the senior engineer who's next in line for a lead role but hasn't got the title yet. 5–8 years.



We're actively looking in Tier-2 cities: Indore, Coimbatore, Jaipur, Kochi, Bhubaneswar, Nagpur. Note: this is an individual-contributor tech-lead role, not a people-management role.
What You'll Own

What You Won't Own
● Hiring decisions
● HR issues
● Roadmap
How We'll Measure Success
PR review turnaround under 24 hours, and production incidents per release.
How We'll Evaluate You
We'll send you one of our real PRs and review it together on a call. Twenty minutes tells us more than any coding test.
Hiring Process
● A work sample that mirrors the real job (never a puzzle), and a reference check with consent collected up front.
● We screen on current CTC, not expected CTC.
