Find and fix failure modes such as hallucination and tool misuse

-
Mentor senior engineers and shape how the group works
-
What you bring

7+ years shipping ML in production, including LLMs at scale
-
Led the design of complex, multi-step LLM systems
-

-

-
PyTorch or similar, on distributed cloud infrastructure
-
BS in CS or a related field; MS or PhD a plus
