Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience with production ownership.
  • 2+ years building LLM systems used by real users or delivered to clients.
  • Advanced Python, including clean, tested, reviewable code; async; typing; packaging; and dependency management.
  • Experience with structured extraction from unstructured documents.
  • Hands-on RAG experience with chunking, embeddings, vector stores, reranking, and retrieval-quality measurement.
  • Hands-on experience with agents, tool use, and MCP.
  • Awareness of LLM security and privacy risks, including prompt injection, data leakage, and PII handling in client-data contexts.
  • Experience designing and running evaluations, including evaluation datasets, graded criteria, baselines, and regression thresholds used as release gates.
  • CI/CD and engineering hygiene, including Git, automated tests, reproducible builds, and containerization.
  • Experience with an LLM orchestration framework such as LangChain/LangGraph, LlamaIndex, or Pydantic AI, and the ability to work without one.
  • Cloud deployment of AI/ML workloads, preferably AWS or demonstrable equivalent on GCP or Azure.
  • Practical cost and latency engineering for LLM systems, including token accounting, caching, model routing, and streaming.
  • Daily hands-on use of AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot, with judgment about when to trust their output.
  • Ability to operate autonomously, challenge ill-posed problems, prioritize by risk and business impact, and own outcomes.
  • Excellent written and spoken English; comfortable in a fully remote, distributed, client-facing team.

Responsibilities

  • Build AI components for a governed data foundation used by AI agents, applications, and business teams.
  • Develop systems for extraction and classification of complex legal documents, scanned documents, and digital documents.
  • Build assistants and agents that solve ambiguous business problems.
  • Write production-grade Python and ship code through CI/CD.
  • Create curated evaluation datasets, graded criteria, baselines, and regression thresholds.
  • Measure retrieval and model quality and use evaluations as release gates.
  • Choose models and design solutions based on business constraints, cost, and latency.
  • Demo solutions live and explain trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Size effort in pre-sales and turn project learnings into reusable company assets.
  • Collaborate with the delivery team and client engineers who will run the systems.
