Responsibilities

  • Partner with enterprises and cutting-edge startups to help us design and ship AI-powered features such as assisted requirement drafting, consistency checks, impact analysis, and intelligent suggestions for systems and domain engineers.
  • Build agentic workflows that help “agentic systems engineers” and “agentic domain engineers” explore designs, simulate changes, and validate requirements.
  • Evaluate and integrate language models and related tooling, optimizing for reliability, latency, cost, and debuggability in production.
  • Build and maintain the surrounding infrastructure: data pipelines, evaluation harnesses, prompt and model management, observability, and safety/guardrails.
  • Work across the stack—from backend integrations and APIs to simple UI hooks—to deliver complete AI features, not just model endpoints.
  • Partner with product and customers to identify high-value workflows, run experiments, and iterate quickly based on usage.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience with modern LLM providers and tooling (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Hugging Face, vector stores, RAG patterns).
  • Comfort working directly with customers to understand their needs and solve real-world problems
  • Excellent communication skills - clear, direct, and persuasive across technical and non-technical audiences
  • Familiarity with prompt design, retrieval-augmented systems, evaluation methods, and safety/guardrail approaches.
  • Ability to reason about tradeoffs between different models, architectures, and deployment patterns and make pragmatic decisions.

Nice to Have

  • Comfortable working in a high-ownership, fast-paced environment where experiments and iteration are the norm.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity.
  • Health, dental, and vision coverage.
  • Flexible time off and support for experimentation, learning, and staying current with the AI ecosystem.
