Build intelligent, data-driven platform. The focus is to support the development of next-generation test analytics and test agents that enable faster insights, improved diagnostics, and scalable infrastructure for Generative AI systems connecting test stations, line level data, and pipelines. You will build automated evaluation tools, and conduct rigorous statistical analyses to ensure the reliability of both human and AI-based assessment systems.
Benchmark, adapt, and integrate AI/ML models into existing software systems. Independently run and analyze ML experiments for real improvements.
Must-Have Requirements
- 3+ years of backend or distributed systems experience, with pre-AI production background
- Experience shipping AI/LLM features serving real users at scale — not just prototypes or demos
- Built AI agents, skills, tools, or MCP (Model Context Protocol) integrations
- Python proficiency for backend development
- Secondary language knowledge of Go, TypeScript, or Rust
- Deep cloud infrastructure experience with AWS/GCP/Azure, including cost optimization and compute decisions
- Hands‑on with Docker and Kubernetes — build, deploy, debug, and scale services
- Understanding of LLM integration: token economics, context limits, rate limiting, structured outputs, API failure modes
- Knowing how to evaluate LLM outputs and handle challenges such as non‑determinism, quality measurement, and regression detection
- Practice as a hands‑on engineer who writes code, debugs production issues, and deploys their own work
Preferred / Differentiators
- Built multi‑step agentic workflows with tool use and function calling
- Experience with agent orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, or custom)
- Built guardrails, fallbacks, or graceful degradation for AI systems
- Streaming inference and async agent orchestration
- Cost/latency optimization: caching, batching, prompt compression
- ML observability tools: Langfuse, Arize, Braintrust, W&B
- Retrieval systems (vector search, hybrid search) as a tool, not the focus
Screening Questions for Candidates
- Describe a production AI agent or skill system you built. What broke and how did you fix it?
- Have you built MCP servers/integrations or custom tool‑use systems for LLMs?
- How do you evaluate whether an LLM‑based feature is working well? What makes this hard?
- Walk me through how you’d deploy and scale an AI service on Kubernetes.
Not a Fit If
- Primarily a model trainer/fine‑tuner (we're not training models)
- AI experience is mainly academic, research, or tutorial‑based
- No production systems experience (only notebooks/demos)
- Looking for entry‑level role with heavy mentorship
- Background is primarily data science/analytics rather than engineering
- Architects who don't write or deploy code themselves
