OpenAI Development, Accelerated with AI
Structured Prompt Engineering
Systematic prompt design with version control, A/B testing, and evaluation datasets. Not trial-and-error prompting, but engineered prompt pipelines that improve over time.
Output Validation & Guardrails
Automated validation of GPT outputs for accuracy, format compliance, and safety. Content filters, structured output parsing, and fallback strategies for unreliable responses.
Cost Optimization
Token usage monitoring, prompt compression techniques, caching strategies, and model routing (GPT-4 for complex tasks, GPT-3.5 for simple ones) to keep costs predictable.
Production Reliability
Rate limiting, retry logic, fallback models, and graceful degradation ensure your application stays operational even when OpenAI's API has issues.
What Our ChatGPT / OpenAI Developers Build
Custom GPT & AI Assistants
Domain-specific AI assistants for customer support, sales, onboarding, and internal operations. Grounded in your data with RAG and fine-tuning.
Content Generation Pipelines
Automated content creation for marketing, documentation, product descriptions, and reports. Batch processing with quality controls and human review workflows.
Intelligent Document Processing
Extract, classify, and summarize information from documents, emails, and forms using GPT-4's vision and text capabilities.
Image Generation (DALL-E)
AI-generated visuals for products, marketing, and content. DALL-E integration with brand guidelines, style consistency, and batch generation workflows.
Voice & Speech (Whisper)
Speech-to-text transcription, meeting summarization, voice command interfaces, and multilingual audio processing using OpenAI's Whisper model.
Embeddings & Semantic Search
Intelligent search systems that understand meaning, not just keywords. Product recommendations, content discovery, and similarity matching.
VETTING PIPELINE
How engineers earn a spot on our team
Every engineer goes through the same four-stage funnel. Most do not make it past stage two.
30,000+
Applications received each year
Around 15 open roles at any time, each receiving roughly 200 applications per month through LinkedIn, AngelList, employee referrals, and outbound headhunting across India. India produces 1.5 million CS graduates a year, so sourcing is not the moat. Filtering is. Most applications are auto-filtered for stack relevance, years of experience, English, and time-zone overlap before any human reviews them.
5%
Pass live coding + system design
Two-stage technical interview: a 90-minute live coding exercise tailored to the candidate's primary stack, then a system-design discussion grounded in real production scenarios.
2%
Pass project deep-dive + background verification
We ask candidates to walk through a recent production project: architecture decisions, what they would change in hindsight. We also run a background verification check through a third-party BGV agency to confirm prior employment, education, and identity.
1.2%
Complete 2-week shadow onboarding
A senior Unico Connect engineer shadows new hires for two weeks on an internal project. We watch how they respond to feedback, ask for help, and ship code. Fast learners stay.
<1%
of applicants join the active team
A dedicated team of engineers makes up the active Unico Connect team at any given time across all stacks. New roles open as engagements complete or grow.
