About the role

  • Design and build AI-powered user features: Implement prompt-based and retrieval-augmented systems (RAG) that answer complex sports questions and generate insights.
  • Build agents and workflows that combine deterministic logic with LLM reasoning.
  • Prototype and iterate fast: Use prompting, tool orchestration, and retrieval design to rapidly build and refine AI behaviors.
  • Collaborate with Eval Engineers to build golden sets and automate quality checks before release.
  • Work closely with the LLMOps Platform team: Use shared eval frameworks, prompt registries, and model gateways.
  • Provide feedback loops to improve platform reliability, latency, and safety.
  • Integrate with deep learning and data systems: Combine structured stats, tracking data, and video-derived features into AI-powered applications.
  • Build APIs and UI layers that expose insights to coaches, teams, and partners.
  • Push the limits of applied AI: Explore how LLMs, retrieval, and deterministic logic can create novel sports analytics tools.
  • Use AI internally to accelerate development (code generation, testing, debugging).
