Product Engineering Intern – Spectra MVP (Bangalore)

Location: Bangalore (in‑office or at least 2–3 days/week hybrid)
Product: Spectra – model‑driven data infra and intelligence layer for physical operations (https://www.loom.com/share/74fa6adaa9cb43c49489fe22f21c45d1).

What you will do

• Turn the Loom into a real product
• Take the flows shown in the Loom (data ingestion → modeling → dashboards/insights) and implement them as an end‑to‑end MVP.
• Build the Spectra backend
• Design and implement Postgres schemas for sites, signals, time‑series, KPIs, rules, and alerts.
• Expose clean REST APIs (Node.js + TypeScript or Python) for ingestion, querying KPIs, and driving the UI.
• Build simple but solid front‑end screens
• Using React/Next.js, create 3–5 core screens:
• Site/asset overview
• KPI dashboard (OEE, downtime, etc.)
• Rule/config editor or “pack apply” flow
• Make them good enough to demo to prospects.
• Script data and demos
• Write scripts to generate synthetic operational data (machines, lines, events) so the product is always in a “demo‑ready” state.
• Iterate directly with founder
• Weekly cycles: agree scope → build → demo → cut/refine → repeat.

Must‑have skills

• Strong coding skills in one backend stack:
• Node.js + TypeScript (preferred) or Python (FastAPI / Django REST).
• Solid with PostgreSQL:
• Can design schemas, write joins, and think about basic performance.
• Basic React/Next.js skills:
• Can build clean, minimal dashboards and forms (no pixel‑perfect design needed).
• Comfortable reading long product docs / specs and reducing them to tasks.
• Mindset: “Ship first, perfect later”, but without breaking the core data model.

Nice to have

• Any experience with data/analytics/IoT/ops tools.
• Experience calling LLM/AI APIs to power search, summaries, or rule suggestions.
• Prior internship or serious side projects in B2B SaaS.

Why this is interesting

• You are building the first real version of Ops Infra Spectra, not a side module.
• You work directly with the founder; zero bureaucracy.
• If this goes well, this converts to a founding engineer‑track role.
