Fresher confused: Meditab (Java Developer, Ahmedabad) vs Zensar (Prompt Engineer, Pune) – both 6 LPA

Hi everyone,

I’m a fresher and currently have two job offers, both offering around 6 LPA, and I’m confused about which one to choose considering role, company, and location.

Option 1: Meditab Software (India) Pvt. Ltd.

• Role: Java Developer (backend)
• Location: Ahmedabad
• Work: APIs, coding, development
• Type: Product-based company (healthcare domain)

Option 2: Zensar Technologies

• Role: Prompt Engineer / Data Annotation
• Location: Pune
• Work: Video annotation, labeling, describing actions for AI models
• No major coding involved

My background:

• Currently doing an internship as a Java Developer in Pune
• Have hands-on experience in Java
• Completed a full-stack course based on Java

My situation:

• I am currently based in Pune, so Zensar is more convenient location-wise
• However, I feel the role at Zensar is more like data labeling and not actual AI engineering
• I want to build a strong technical foundation in case I continue in tech
• I may consider MBA in 2–3 years, so experience also matters

Since both are offering the same salary, I’m more focused on long-term growth, skills, and flexibility rather than short-term comfort.

Would it be better to prioritize the developer role at Meditab over staying in Pune with Zensar?

Would really appreciate honest advice from people in the industry.

Thanks!
