• Build production AI applications end to end that solve concrete measurement problems for our partner teams, taking systems from idea to launch
• Design and implement AI agents and agentic workflows using frameworks like LangChain, LangGraph, or MCP
• Develop RAG systems including vector store implementation, embedding strategy, retrieval logic, and context management
• Apply foundation models and LLMs through prompt engineering, orchestration, and lightweight fine-tuning where needed (foundational model development continues to live with our AI/ML pod)
• Architect AI-specific data access patterns and APIs that allow agents to query data safely (core data pipelines remain owned by our Data Infrastructure pod)
• Build AI-powered internal tools, conversational interfaces, and Slack apps that drive adoption across the org
• Establish AI safety and reliability practices including guardrails, evaluation, fallback logic, and PII protections
• Build evaluation infrastructure to measure AI output quality, catch regressions, and continuously improve performance
• Champion engineering excellence across testing, observability, and incident response for AI systems
• Partner with cross-functional leadership to spot high impact AI opportunities and translate business problems into AI solutions
• Drive adoption through documentation, partnership with end users, and ongoing iteration based on feedback
• Set technical direction for AI across our team by establishing patterns and reusable components other engineers can build on

Basic Qualifications:

• 5+ years of hands-on engineering experience, with meaningful time spent building AI or automation systems
• Track record of shipping production AI or automation applications that drove measurable business impact
• Advanced Python and SQL proficiency for working with data at scale
• Production experience integrating LLMs into real applications, including prompt engineering, retrieval, and evaluation
• Experience designing and consuming APIs, with comfort building reliable services (FastAPI, Flask, or similar)
• Working knowledge of at least one AI orchestration framework such as LangChain, LangGraph, or MCP
• Familiarity with vector databases and RAG patterns
• Solid engineering fundamentals around Git, CI/CD, testing, and event driven systems
• Strong cross-functional communication skills and the ability to drive adoption of new tools across non technical teams

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with AI evaluation tools and observability for non deterministic systems
• Built Slack apps, conversational interfaces, or other AI-powered internal tools with strong adoption
• Hands-on experience designing agentic systems with function calling, tool use, or multi agent orchestration
