About The Position

Support the operationalization of FCV analytical products and LLM-enabled tools across the FCV Department. In particular, the role will involve working directly with GTFS1, FCV Country Coordinators, TTLs, and staff involved in corporate review processes. The ETC will help design, test, deploy, and scale LLM-based workflows that strengthen FCV sensitivity and responsiveness across World Bank operations, country engagement products, and corporate review processes as well as the use of LLMs for knowledge packages and other analytics. A core focus of the role will also be in supporting implementation of the SPF-funded ASPIRE initiative, including the development, testing, and operational uptake of LLM-enabled tools such as the FCV Project Screening App and related operational support products.

Requirements

• Master’s degree in computer science, data science, computational social science, public policy, international development, or a related field.
• Strong Python; production experience with LLM APIs, including Anthropic, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, or equivalent, and orchestration frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, or equivalent.
• Demonstrated experience designing RAG systems, including chunking, embeddings, vector stores, retrieval design, and retrieval evaluation.
• Prompt engineering for multi-step workflows; agent design with tool use and structured outputs, including JSON schemas and function calling.
• Git, CI/CD, containerization, and basic cloud deployment, with Azure preferred, for moving prototypes into Bank systems.
• LLM evaluation practice, including eval sets, regression testing, hallucination and grounding checks, repeated-run stability checks, and human-in-the-loop workflows.
• Familiarity with the Bank internal AI platform, mAI skills, and ITS integration pathways.
• Working knowledge of Bank operational documents and processes, including PADs, PCNs, ISRs, ICRs, CPFs, RRAs, PRA/RECA, FCV Envelope reviews, and related corporate review functions.
• Familiarity with the World Bank operational procedures and practices.
• Demonstrated experience working with World Bank operational teams, including Task Team Leaders, FCV Country Coordinators, CMUs, and technical specialists in the design, delivery, review, or implementation of World Bank operational activities.

Nice To Haves

• Experience supporting project delivery and coordination with TTLs and task teams.
• Ability to translate analytical outputs into concise, operationally useful briefs, review notes, screening outputs, and guidance materials for FCV and operational audiences.

Responsibilities

• Support requests from across the FCV Group for LLM-enabled analytical workflows and document reviews, including reviews of CPFs, FCV Envelope submissions, RRAs, core ASAs, and other corporate and operational products through tailored LLM workflows, reusable prompt packages, guidance materials, evidence briefs, and quality assurance processes.
• Support implementation of the SPF-funded ASPIRE initiative as a core responsibility of the position. Working closely with the project TTL, FCV Country Coordinators, TTLs, in-country FCV experts, and operational teams, identify, design, stress test, refine, and operationalize LLM-enabled tools that strengthen FCV sensitivity and responsiveness across World Bank operations.
• Support piloting, user engagement, quality assurance, documentation, and delivery of key project outputs, including the FCV Project Screening App and related operational support tools.
• Support ongoing development, testing, refinement, and operationalization of the FCV Project Screening App as a core product under ASPIRE and as a wider FCV operational support tool. Improve multi-step prompt workflows; expand and maintain the knowledge base; pilot use cases with TTLs, FCV Country Coordinators, and operational teams; gather and incorporate user feedback; and support migration, documentation, governance, and integration into World Bank systems where appropriate.
• Support GTFS2 and GTFS1 staff in designing and implementing LLM-enabled workflows that help operational teams apply FCV analysis in practice. Work directly with FCV Country Coordinators, FCV Group team members, and operational staff to develop tools, prompts, guidance materials, analytical products, and user workflows that translate FCV evidence into operational decision-making.
• Design and support LLM-enabled analytical tools that connect evolving FCV risks to country portfolios and operational pipelines, including portfolio-level screening, risk mapping, and the generation of structured summaries for country teams and FCV Country Coordinators. This should include functionality to help match FCV risks to country portfolios without treating the country portfolio risk scanner as a standalone product line.
• Support integration and maintenance of LLM-enabled tools across FCV analytical platforms and operational workflows, including the FCV Risk Portal, Risk Analytics Bot, mAI skills, and related systems. Help translate working prototypes into reusable tools, documentable workflows, and scalable products that can be adopted across the FCV Group.
• Curate global, regional, and country knowledge packages and collections in collaboration with relevant FCV teams for RRAs and in the World Bank K360 knowledge environment. Develop, package, and maintain reusable mAI skills and LLM workflows for CPF review, operational risk briefs, FCV project screening, country risk analysis, and general FCV querying.
• Support the FCV Group in identifying, testing, and responsibly applying new LLM capabilities where they can strengthen core FCV-related tasks, while maintaining appropriate safeguards around quality, grounding, confidentiality, and human review.
