• Cross-Functional Collaboration:
• Work closely with AI researchers, product teams, and engineers to translate technical research into valuable product capabilities.
• Contribute to architectural discussions and technical decisions related to AI infrastructure, evaluation methodologies, and product development.
• Identify technical challenges and opportunities for improvement, proactively proposing and implementing effective solutions.
• Help establish engineering practices that promote reliability, scalability, maintainability, and continuous innovation.

Requirements:

• At least 3 years of professional experience as a Software Engineer, Infrastructure Engineer, Product Engineer, or in a related engineering role building and deploying production systems.
• Strong programming skills in Python, with practical experience developing, maintaining, and deploying software applications.
• Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure and the deployment and operation of production software systems.
• Demonstrated experience building evaluation pipelines, benchmarks, or assessment frameworks for machine learning or AI-powered applications.
• Understanding of AI performance evaluation, including model accuracy, hallucination detection, retrieval quality, latency, and cost optimization.
• Experience developing backend services, REST APIs, database integrations, and internal engineering tools.
• Familiarity with deployment pipelines, system monitoring, observability, and performance dashboards.
• Ability to transform experimental code, research prototypes, and loosely defined requirements into reliable, maintainable, and user-friendly production solutions.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to investigate complex technical challenges and deliver practical solutions.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across engineering, AI research, and product teams.
• A proactive and adaptable mindset, with the ability to work independently, manage priorities, and contribute to a rapidly evolving technical environment.

Nice to Have:

• Full-stack software development experience.
• Familiarity with FastAPI, Docker, React, Next.js, and PostgreSQL.
• Experience working with vector databases and modern data retrieval technologies.
• Knowledge of Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and AI agent architectures.
• Familiarity with AI benchmarks, model evaluation methodologies, and document automation workflows.
• Previous experience building AI-powered products or working in healthcare technology or other regulated industries.

Benefits:

• Competitive Compensation: Annual base salary ranging from $180,000 to $260,000 USD, depending on skills, professional experience, and role scope.
• Remote Work: Fully remote position within the United States.
• Professional Growth: Opportunity to work at the intersection of AI research, infrastructure engineering, and product development.
• Technical Impact: Direct involvement in transforming experimental AI technologies into reliable, production-ready applications.
• Innovation: Exposure to advanced AI technologies, LLMs, retrieval systems, and intelligent automation solutions.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with AI researchers, engineers, and product professionals to solve meaningful technical challenges.
