Senior LLM/Prompt Engineer (Python Focus)

Location: Remote
Level: Senior

About the Role

You'll lead AI/LLM integration across two products:

  • A document intelligence platform extracting entities, relationships, and chronologies
  • A logistics system requiring LLM-powered automation and data structuring

As the senior AI engineer, you'll ensure LLM outputs are reliable, scalable, and tied to business logic.

What You'll Do

  • Design and optimize LLM pipelines (prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning)
  • Build robust Python services for data preprocessing, LLM API integration, and output validation
  • Collaborate with engineers to productionize AI features (e.g., traceable evidence linking)
  • Lead performance analysis and improvements (latency, cost, accuracy)
  • Mentor junior team members on LLM best practices

What We're Looking For

Must-Have:

  • 5+ years in Python software engineering (APIs, data pipelines)
  • 2+ years hands-on LLM experience (shipped prompt/RAG/fine-tuning solutions)
  • Strong data skills (SQL, pandas, evaluating output quality)
  • Ability to translate ambiguous requirements into scalable AI systems

Nice-to-Have:

  • Experience with legal tech, logistics, or domain-specific workflows
  • Light ML/data science background (sklearn, embeddings, evaluation metrics)

Why Join?

  • Own the AI/LLM strategy for two products
  • Work with modern tools and high-impact use cases
  • No red tape—just build and iterate
