About the Role

Reporting to the Senior Director of Growth & AI, this position operates in a fully remote environment across the U.S.

Key Responsibilities

  • Review conversation logs and user feedback to detect breakdowns, misinterpretations, and security risks in AI responses
  • Partner with product leadership to define and monitor performance metrics such as resolution rate, containment, and satisfaction
  • Refine prompt structures and model configurations to balance accuracy, speed, and cost in live environments
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to enhance natural language understanding and intent classification
  • Develop evaluation systems using golden datasets, automated scoring methods, and rubric-based analysis
  • Implement safeguards to minimize hallucinations, prevent prompt injection, and maintain compliance
  • Design end-to-end dialogue paths, including fallback strategies and handoffs to human support
  • Continuously update system instructions for large language models to ensure brand-aligned tone and factual consistency
  • Optimize structured output formats, function routing, and tool integration to support downstream processes

Qualifications

  • Minimum of 5 years of professional experience, including at least 2 years focused on conversational AI, applied LLM systems, or NLP in production settings
  • Proven expertise in crafting and tuning prompts for models like GPT, Gemini, or comparable systems, including structured outputs and function calling
  • Hands-on experience with RAG pipeline design—chunking strategies, embedding models, and retrieval evaluation
  • Experience building test frameworks for prompts, including A/B testing, regression checks, and LLM-as-judge setups
  • Proficient in Python or TypeScript, with a track record of integrating LLM APIs into scalable applications
  • Strong analytical skills to interpret conversation logs and drive measurable improvements
  • Systems-oriented mindset with user empathy and the ability to convert business requirements into robust AI behaviors

Preferred Experience

  • Work with agentic architectures or autonomous AI systems, such as those seen in Decagon, Agentforce, Fin, or Sierra
