Core Responsibilities

    • Build and maintain evaluation frameworks for LLMs and generative AI systems tailored to public safety and intelligence use cases.
    • Design guardrails and alignment strategies to minimize bias, toxicity, hallucinations, and other ethical risks in production workflows.
    • Partner with AI engineers and data scientists to define online and offline evaluation metrics (e.g., model drifts, data drifts, factual accuracy, consistency, safety, interpretability).
    • Implement continuous evaluation pipelines for AI models, integrated into CI/CD and production monitoring systems.
    • Collaborate with stakeholders to stress test models against edge cases, adversarial prompts, and sensitive data scenarios.
    • Research and integrate third-party evaluation frameworks and solutions; adapt them to our regulated, high-stakes environment.
    • Work with product and customer-facing teams to ensure explainability, transparency, and auditability of AI outputs.
    • Provide technical leadership in responsible AI practices, influencing standards across the organization.
    • Contribute to DevOps/MLOps workflows for deployment, monitoring, and scaling of AI evaluation and guardrail systems (experience with Kubernetes is a plus).
    • Document best practices and findings, and share knowledge across teams to foster a culture of responsible AI innovation.

What We Value

    • Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, or related field.
    • 3–5+ years of hands-on experience in ML/AI engineering, with at least 2 years working directly on LLM evaluation, QA, or safety.
    • Strong familiarity with evaluation techniques for generative AI: human-in-the-loop evaluation, automated metrics, adversarial testing, red-teaming.
    • Experience with bias detection, fairness approaches, and responsible AI design.
    • Knowledge of LLM observability, monitoring, and guardrail frameworks e.g Langfuse, Langsmith
    • Proficiency with Python and modern AI/ML/LLM/Agentic AI libraries (LangGraph, Strands Agents, Pydantic AI, LangChain, HuggingFace, PyTorch, LlamaIndex).
    • Experience integrating evaluations into DevOps/MLOps pipelines, preferably with Kubernetes, Terraform, ArgoCD, or GitHub Actions.
    • Understanding of cloud AI platforms (AWS, Azure) and deployment best practices.
    • Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to design practical evaluation systems for real-world, high-stakes scenarios.
    • Excellent communication skills to translate technical risks and evaluation results into insights for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
