Noodle is higher education’s leading strategy, services, and technology partner. We develop infrastructure, provide life-changing learning experiences, and grow the awareness of and the enrollment in some of the best academic institutions in the world. Our vision is “to empower universities to change the world.” We achieve this vision by offering our university partners various products and services that help them be more resilient, responsive, efficient, and interconnected.
We’re looking for a Prompt Systems Engineer to sit at the intersection of AI capability and educational effectiveness. You will own the design, testing, and continuous improvement of the prompts and system instructions that power Noodle’s AI agents across enrollment, learning, and student support use cases.
You’ll work directly with product managers, learning designers, university stakeholders, and engineers to translate operational and pedagogical goals and business requirements into agent behavior — and you’ll build the evaluation frameworks to prove that behavior is working.
As a Prompt Systems Engineer, you will:
Prompt Design & Engineering
Design prompt architectures for multi-step and chained agent workflows, including RAG-augmented agents that draw from program-specific knowledge bases
Collaborate with the engineering team to configure and deploy agents through Noodle’s AI orchestration platform, including primary prompts, secondary context, knowledge base attachments, and embed definitions
Create the learner experiences defined by “three-way” chat between the learner, a campus or Noodle support staff member, and that staff member’s AI assistant
Evaluation & Quality
~ Use Langfuse (Noodle’s LLM observability platform) to monitor prompt performance in production, identify regressions, and prioritize prompt improvements
~ Design red-teaming and adversarial testing protocols to surface edge cases and failure modes before agents reach students
~ Partner with Noodle teammates and university stakeholders to design, build, and test agents — translating learning objectives, operational flows, rubric assessments, and more into prompt-level agent instructions
Work with enrollment and student success teams to tune companion agents for specific programs and university partner contexts
Contribute prompt engineering guidelines and best practices documentation for internal teams who configure their own agents on Noodle’s AI orchestration platform
Stay current with model capability changes across OpenAI, Anthropic, and other providers integrated into Noodle’s stack, and proactively surface opportunities or risks
2+ years of experience designing and iterating on prompts for LLM-powered applications in a production environment
~ Experience building and running prompt evaluations: defining metrics, writing test cases, and interpreting results to make improvement decisions
~ Comfort working across disciplines — you can hold a conversation with an engineer about context windows and with a faculty member about Bloom’s Taxonomy
~ Familiarity with LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability) and how AI tools plug into LMS platforms like Moodle, Canvas, or Instructure
~ Comfort reading and writing basic code (JavaScript, Python) to support prompt automation and testing pipelines
~ Work from our beautiful NYC office OR the comfort of your home office!
~ Computer and charger on us!
~401(k) with company match, plus equity opportunities
~ Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family (including mental health benefits like Headspace and Talkspace)
~ Employer-paid life and disability insurance
~ Health Savings Account (HSA), Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), and commuter benefits
~ Pre-tax benefit options that help you save on eligible healthcare, dependent care, and commuting expenses
~ Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
~ Free subscription to the Calm app
~ 4 weeks of paid vacation + 10 paid holidays + paid sick leave
~ Growth opportunities - we pride ourselves on creating environments where employees can be themselves and grow within and around the company
