  • Develop backend services (Python / Node.js) to support AI workflows  
  • Work with real-world data (documents, logs, APIs)  
  • Improve system reliability through evaluations, testing, and iteration  
  • Debug issues such as hallucinations, latency, and cost inefficiencies  
  • Collaborate closely with founders and product team on product direction  

Requirements 

  • 2+ years of experience in Machine Learning or AI-related roles  
  • Strong coding skills in Python or JavaScript  
  • Hands-on experience working with LLM APIs  
  • Experience building RAG pipelines or agent-based systems  
  • Solid understanding of ML fundamentals (fine-tuning is a plus)  
  • Proven ability to build and ship production-ready systems  

Tech Stack 

  • Python, Node.js  
  • OpenAI / Anthropic APIs  
  • Vector databases (Pinecone, Chroma)  
  • React / Next.js  
  • AWS / Vercel  
  • LangChain / LlamaIndex  
  • Prompt engineering  
  • Embeddings + vector search  
  • API design and backend systems  

 

Nice to Have 

  • Experience with LLM evaluation, fine-tuning, or model optimization  
  • Exposure to agent frameworks or multi-step reasoning systems  
  • Domain experience in finance, healthcare, legal, or other high-accuracy environments 

What we Offer 

  • Salary: $2,500 – $3,500 USD/month (based on experience and alignment with role expectations) 
  • Opportunity to own and shape a meaningful internal product 
  • Collaborative, low-bureaucracy environment 
  • Exposure to cutting-edge AI and automation technologies
