There's a Junior Chatbot Developer opening in Vesu, Surat, full-time and on-site, paying up to ₹40,500 a month. Six months of relevant experience is enough to be considered, which makes this a genuinely realistic entry point for someone early in their career rather than a role dressed up as junior but expecting years of background.
What the work looks like
- Writing and maintaining the conversation flows and backend logic that power a chatbot's responses
- Working with the product and support teams whenever a new use case needs a bot to handle a fresh kind of request
- Fixing bugs found during testing, often cases where the bot misreads what a user actually meant
A bot that handles the obvious phrasing of a question can still trip over a slightly odd way of asking the same thing, and catching those gaps before users do is a regular part of the job here.
What's expected going in
A bachelor's degree is the baseline, and given the technical nature of the role, one in computer science or a related field fits best. In terms of experience, six months of hands-on exposure is what's asked for, so a solid academic project or a short internship involving this kind of work would satisfy it.
Skills for the role
- Conversational AI platforms, building and configuring bot logic within one
- NLP basics, enough to understand how intent and entity recognition actually work under the hood
- Python, for the scripting and backend work that ties everything together
- API integration, connecting a chatbot to the other systems it needs to pull data from or send data to
Prior hands-on time with a platform such as Dialogflow or Rasa makes the ramp-up noticeably faster, and some early exposure to prompt design for LLM-based bots is becoming genuinely relevant as more chatbot work shifts in that direction.
Where and how this runs
This role is on-site in Vesu, working directly with a small development team rather than remotely. Naukri Mitra's client here pairs junior developers with more experienced colleagues for the first few weeks, mainly so mistakes in a live bot are caught before they reach actual users. Some days are heads-down coding; others involve sitting through user conversation logs to spot where the bot keeps stumbling.
Benefits
- Health insurance
- Paid time off
- Provident fund contributions
- Relocation assistance and accommodation support for candidates relocating to Surat
Pay and location
The role pays up to ₹40,500 per month and is based in Vesu, Surat. For a junior chatbot developer role in the city, that's a fair starting figure and lines up with entry-level pay for similar Python- and NLP-adjacent roles locally.
Applying
Candidates should send a resume listing any chatbot, NLP, or Python projects they've built, including informal ones, along with a short note on the platform or framework used. Anyone without a formal internship but with a working project to show is still very much encouraged to apply.
