Tech Stack

About the role

  • Design, implement, and evolve RAG pipelines combining structured data, embeddings, and LLMs.
  • Develop and maintain prompt strategies used across multi-step agent workflows.
  • Integrate LLMs into production systems with attention to reliability, cost, and latency.
  • Orchestrate AI-driven workflows across internal services and third-party APIs.
  • Define and improve practices for prompt versioning, evaluation, and iteration.
  • Work closely with platform engineers to ensure AI systems are maintainable and observable.
  • Help the team reason about when deeper customization or model-level work may be warranted in the future.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Strong backend experience with modern .NET and Python.
  • Demonstrated, hands-on experience with:
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
  • Prompt engineering beyond simple completion calls
  • Vector databases and embedding workflows
  • API-driven LLM integrations
  • Experience integrating AI systems into real products, not just prototypes.
  • Ability to reason about trade-offs: determinism, accuracy, cost, and performance.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to explain AI behavior clearly.
