  • Industry and market knowledge of ESG and sustainability

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and deploy LLM-powered applications and agent-based systems in production
  • Own the full product lifecycle from concept to production to iteration across backend and frontend
  • Build scalable, maintainable systems that solve real customer problems
  • Develop prompt strategies, context management (RAG, memory), and agent workflows
  • Integrate and optimize across leading LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, open-source)
  • Continuously improve system quality, reliability, and performance
  • Use AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Copilot, Claude Code) to accelerate development
  • Validate, test, and safely integrate AI-generated code into production systems
  • Contribute to evolving best practices for AI-first engineering
  • Own testing strategy including unit, integration, and end-to-end testing
  • Define and implement evaluation frameworks for AI outputs (quality, consistency, failure modes)
  • Debug production issues and optimize for latency, cost, and scalability
  • Take full ownership of system reliability and production stability
  • Translate ambiguous requirements into working solutions
  • Partner with product, design, and customer-facing teams to deliver impactful features
  • Collaborate effectively with distributed and offshore engineering teams

Benefits

  • High ownership and autonomy
  • Opportunity to build products end-to-end using AI-first workflows
  • Work at the cutting edge of AI-driven software development
  • Work with multiple leading-edge technologies
  • Fast-moving, execution-focused culture
