About the role

  • from user-facing experiences and APIs to backend services, data models, and infrastructure.
  • You'll be at the heart of our applied AI efforts, with a particular focus on human-in-the-loop systems used to generate high-quality training data for Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI agents.

Responsibilities

  • Own Large Surface: Design, build, and ship workflows spanning frontend UI, APIs, backend services, databases, and production infrastructure across a variety of features.
  • Enable Human-in-the-Loop AI Training: Build systems that allow humans to efficiently create, review, and curate high-quality AI training and evaluation data sets.
  • Support RLHF and Preference Data Workflows: Design and implement tooling that supports RLHF-style pipelines, including task generation, human review, scoring, aggregation, and dataset versioning.
  • Leverage LLMs in the Review Loop: Build systems that use LLMs to assist human reviewers, such as automated checks, critiques, ranking suggestions, or quality signals.
  • Advance AI Evaluation: Design and implement evaluation frameworks and interactive tools for LLMs and AI agents across multiple data modalities (text, images, audio, video).
  • Create Intuitive, Reviewer-Focused Interfaces: Build thoughtful, efficient user interfaces optimized for high-throughput human review, quality control, and operational workflows.
  • Architect Scalable Data & Service Layers: Design APIs, backend services, and data schemas that support large-scale data creation, review, and iteration with strong guarantees around correctness and traceability.
  • Elevate the Team: Re-imagine engineering practices, development processes, and documentation. Share knowledge through technical writing and design discussions.
  • We celebrate those who take ownership, move fast, and deliver impact.
  • Build systems that allow humans to efficiently create, review, and curate high-quality AI training and evaluation data sets.
