About the Role
Ishvara Tech Consulting Pvt. Ltd. is looking for an experienced Technology Trainer & Capability Development Consultant to strengthen the technical capabilities of our engineering and technology teams.
This is not a conventional coding-trainer position. We are looking for someone with broad exposure to how modern technology companies build, test, deploy, secure and maintain software products.
The consultant does not need to be an expert programmer across every language or framework. However, they must have a strong conceptual and practical understanding of modern technology stacks, be comfortable discussing architecture and implementation approaches with developers, and be capable of training teams on engineering standards, tools, workflows, processes and best practices.
The role will work across Software Engineering, AI/ML, Quality Assurance, DevOps, Cloud, APIs, Databases, Security, Product Engineering and Software Delivery.
Key Responsibilities
1. Technical Training & Capability Development
- Assess the existing technical knowledge and skill levels of employees across different technology functions.
- Identify individual and team-level skill gaps and create structured training and upskilling plans.
- Conduct classroom, workshop, hands-on and project-oriented technical training sessions.
- Develop structured learning paths for junior, mid-level and senior technical resources.
- Create assessments, assignments, practical exercises and evaluation mechanisms.
- Measure improvement after training and provide periodic capability reports to management.
- Help establish a continuous technical learning culture within the organisation.
2. Software Development & Technology Stack
The trainer should have good working knowledge of modern software-development technologies and understand when, why and where different technologies are used.
Expected exposure should include:
- Frontend: React.js, Next.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, CSS and modern frontend architecture.
- Backend: Node.js, Python and modern backend/application frameworks.
- APIs: REST APIs, webhooks, third-party integrations, authentication and API testing.
- Databases: SQL, PostgreSQL/MySQL, MongoDB, Redis and general database concepts.
- Architecture: Microservices, modular architecture, event-driven systems, scalability and distributed applications.
- Source Control: Git, GitHub/GitLab, branching strategies, pull requests and code-review workflows.
- Understanding of coding standards, documentation, debugging, error handling and engineering best practices.
Deep hands-on coding expertise across all technologies is not mandatory. The consultant should, however, be technically strong enough to understand the technology, explain its application, review approaches and guide developers toward appropriate engineering practices.
3. AI, ML & LLM Technologies
Provide foundational and intermediate capability development around:
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning concepts.
- Large Language Models (LLMs).
- Generative AI applications.
- Prompt engineering and structured prompting.

- AI APIs and model integrations.
- AI agents and agentic workflows.
- AI-enabled automation.
- Model evaluation, hallucination management and responsible AI practices.
- Integration of AI capabilities into SaaS and enterprise applications.
The objective is not necessarily to train employees as AI researchers, but to ensure technology teams understand how AI capabilities can practically be incorporated into software products and workflows.
4. Quality Assurance & Testing
The consultant should be capable of training and guiding teams on:
- Software testing lifecycle and QA methodologies.
- Manual and automated testing.
- Functional, regression, integration and system testing.
- API testing.
