Why prompting belongs in search
Keyword matching gets you halfway. The rest comes from an LLM layer that expands the query, infers intent and reranks the shortlist. Across six months you will own the prompts in that layer: the query rewriter, the intent classifier, and the reranker deciding which listing sits at position one.
Measurement, not vibes
You will not be guessing. We keep click through and application rates per query, and you will learn to read them properly. Expect to build a labelled relevance set of about a thousand query and listing pairs, then use it to compare any prompt change against the live version before it ships.
Life on the team
You will work from the Mumbai office three days a week, sitting with two backend engineers and a data analyst. There is a fortnightly relevance review where the team argues about specific queries and specific results. Turn up with examples and you will do well in that room.

Requirements
- Final year student or recent graduate; coursework and projects count, industry experience is not required
- Python plus enough SQL to pull your own numbers
- Interest in how search ranking works, even if only from reading about it
- Willing to defend a ranking decision with data in a room of engineers
- Available for three office days a week in Mumbai
