Here’s a summary of the role:
You’ll use your applied machine learning and generative AI skills to design and ship LLM powered product experiences that solve real problems for real users. You turn messy documents and complex language into smart assistants, agentic solutions, and search experiences that feel fast, reliable, and trustworthy.
In this role you work end-to-end: framing problems, shaping prompts and workflows, orchestrating tools and retrieval, and partnering with engineers and product managers to bring modern AI into production. If you enjoy building with large language models and care deeply about evaluation, safety, and impact, you’ll feel at home here.
Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll do (not all of it, just the important stuff):
- Design, prototype, and refine LLM based features over large document sets.
- Orchestrate multistep, agentic workflows and tool calling (including MCP servers and other integrations) so LLMs can take meaningful actions, not just generate text.
- Define evaluation frameworks, experiments, and metrics so you can measure model quality, relevance, and safety with confidence.
- Use AWS services (i.e. AWS Bedrock) to deliver reliable, secure, and scalable AI capabilities.
- Work closely with domain experts, PMs and software engineers to turn prototypes into reliable, production ready services.
- Handle complex, domain specific text (e.g. legal, financial, or regulatory content) with a strong focus on accuracy, robustness, and privacy.
- Communicate your findings clearly, share best practices, and stay up to date with the latest ML and AI research that can improve your solutions.
These are the essentials you’ll need to get an interview:
- Hands-on experience building LLM powered applications or features (for example RAG systems, chatbots, assistants, agentic solutions or document centric workflows) — not just using chat interfaces.
- Strong Python skills and everyday comfort with the modern data / AI ecosystem (e.g. pandas, NumPy, basic ML libraries, HTTP APIs, and SDKs for cloud AI services).
- Practical experience with LLM powered solution design, evaluation, and iteration: you know how to test, compare approaches, and choose the one that works best with real data.
- Familiarity with at least one cloud platform (ideally AWS) and building or contributing to services or pipelines that run in production.
- A degree in Computer Science, Data/Applied Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Clear communication skills, collaborative mindset, and a genuine interest in learning, sharing knowledge, and iterating quickly based on feedback.
It would be great if you had these to, but we’ll support you if you don’t:
- Experience designing and implementing agentic workflows (multistep reasoning, tool calling, planners) and/or building MCP servers or similar tool integrations.
- Hands-on experience with AWS Bedrock or comparable platforms (model selection, configuration, guardrails, evaluation, and cost/performance trade-offs).
- Experience with semantic search, vector databases, and information retrieval techniques in production systems.
- Familiarity with observability and evaluation for LLM applications (e.g. logging, feedback loops, offline and online evaluation, safety checks).
- Experience working with complex or regulated content such as legal, risk, compliance, financial, or governance documents.
