  • Experience building cloud-based services on AWS, GCP, or Azure, with high-volume data, streaming or real-time inference paths, and a range of data stores.
  • Strong fundamentals of statistical machine learning algorithms, transformer models, LLMs. 
  • Extensive experience with ML Ops and LLM Ops patterns, including designing and implementing rigorous evaluation metrics for non-deterministic AI features at scale.
  • Strong communication skills and highly effective collaborator who works well with teammates.
  • Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, etc.).
 
Desired:
  • Prior experience building evals for autonomous agents and large language models. 
  • Prior experience building autonomous agents that handle multi-turn conversations and maintain long-term context/consistency.
  • Prior experience working in a globally distributed team.
