  • Collaborate closely with the Product, Growth, and Engineering teams
  • Continually refine existing AI products - leverage new models, new tools, and new prompting techniques
  • Manage and oversee the evals process

Qualifications

  • Expertise building production-grade RAG & agentic pipelines (hybrid search, evals, etc.)
  • Extreme ownership and ruthless prioritization
  • Experience building and optimizing data pipelines (AirFlow, AirByte, et.c)
  • Experience using Pinecone (or other vector DBs), Llama Index, Langchain
  • Fluent in Python and Typescript (experience using Cursor is a huge plus)
