Key aspects of this role

This role covers AI engineering and product engineering in equal measure. You'll design and build features end-to-end, working directly with the founders to ship things customers care about.

• Design and develop LLM applications, using Langchain, LangGraph, and related frameworks, with a focus on building robust, production-grade workflows.
• Prototype and experiment rapidly—you’ll test different model approaches, pipelines, and architectures to validate ideas before moving them to production.
• Design and build the product alongside the founders, including scoping features, making architectural decisions, and shipping application functionality from backend to API.
• Own the full lifecycle of AI systems, including dataset creation, evaluation design, model orchestration, deployment, and monitoring.
• Develop backend components and product features across the application, from inference services and data pipelines to core APIs and application functionality.
• Work across our tech stack, primarily Typescript for production workloads, and Python for notebook prototyping in Hex.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product and engineering teams to scope and build AI-powered experiences that are performant, reliable, and cost-effective.
• Stay up to date with advancements in LLMs and AI tooling, applying new techniques to solve customer problems and improve product capabilities.
• Contribute to technical strategy and architecture, including decisions about infrastructure, scalability, and responsible AI practices.
• Support and improve deployed AI systems in production, ensuring reliability, observability, and iterative improvement.

Tech Stack:

• Langchain/LangGraph (Typescript/Python) deployed on ECS & Lambda
• Langsmith for datasets/evals/experiments
• Hex for prototyping/notebook'ing

You’re ideal for the role if you have…

• You’re a software engineer by experience, you have experience working in software engineering and can bring that thinking into how you work with AI.
• Production experience deploying LLM applications, using Langchain, LangGraph, or similar frameworks.
• Experience designing evaluation frameworks for LLM applications, including dataset management, experiment tracking, and performance measurement.
• Experience supporting LLM-powered applications in production environments, including monitoring, debugging, and optimising reliability and cost.
• Proficiency in one or both of Typescript and Python. We prefer to ship production workloads in Typescript, and use Python for notebook workflows in Hex.
• Hands-on experience with backend or full-stack engineering, including shipping product features and application functionality end-to-end.
• Understanding or exposure to AWS infrastructure, including how your systems are deployed and operated (ECS, Lambda, and related services).
• An entrepreneurial mindset, with high grit, focus, and a results-oriented approach. You’re comfortable iterating and figuring things out on the fly.
• Strong analytical skills, and a love for solving open-ended problems with data.
• A bias for action and ownership, you don’t wait for perfect specs, you build and validate.
• A growth mindset, always learning and sharing what you learn.
