Full Stack Developers

What we do:

We take immense pride in the fact that we tackle some of the most complex and impactful problems Indian language users currently face today.

We’re working towards our mission of language equality by building a full-stack of language technologies and solutions, spanning fonts, font rendering, transliteration, translation, app & website localisation in real-time, Indian language input (check out our Swalekh keypad on the App Store here), Indian language voice assistants, and Indic search, to empower the Indian language user and let them tap into the possibilities the internet offers them.

What we DON’T care about:

Your age, gender, where you went to college, or your academic scores

What we DO care about:

Our mission resonates with you
You have an insatiable curiosity, which means you’ll figure a way out even in an unfamiliar environment.
And finally your integrity and work ethic
