About the role:

As a Senior Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning Engineer, become a part of a cross-functional development team engineering experiences of tomorrow. You will work building the agents, models, and integrations on the platform's templates — the hands that turn use cases into production systems.

Responsibilities:

• Build and ship LLM-powered agents and workflows on the paved path (templates, pipeline, guardrails)
• Write and run evals for everything built; no system ships without passing its suite
• Integrate with client systems and data sources; instrument for cost and quality telemetry
• Pair with business users to iterate quickly inside bounded scopes

Requirements:

• 8+ years software engineering; 2.5+ building LLM applications in production (agents, RAG, tool use)
• Strong Python/TypeScript; API craftsmanship; prompt and context engineering that survives contact with users
• Can write LLM evals as part of building — non-negotiable
• Ships fast without skipping guardrails

Desirable:

• Retrieval/IR depth (for assistant-facing work); healthcare data handling; cost-optimization experience

What’s in it for you?

• Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door environment
• Growth focus: Take on large-scale projects with a global impact and expand your expertise
• Tailored learning: Boost your skills with internal events (meetups, conferences, workshops), Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications
• Endless opportunities: Explore diverse domains through internal mobility, finding the best fit to gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge technologies
• Care: Healthcare, Basic Life Insurance, Short and Long-term disability insurance according to the Company’s Benefit Plans
