About the role

RAG systems fail quietly. The retrieval returns plausible-looking chunks that don't actually answer the question. The generation produces confident text that contradicts the retrieved context. The attribution cites a document that says the opposite of the generated claim. None of these failures trigger an error — they just produce wrong answers that users might trust. We build LLM infrastructure for enterprise clients. Our RAG quality engineering practice is what separates our system reliability from off-the-shelf RAG demos. You'll own the quality evaluation framework: building automated test suites that detect retrieval failures, hallucination patterns, and attribution errors before they reach users. The system processes 4 million queries per day across 28 enterprise deployments. Each has different knowledge bases, different user populations, and different accuracy requirements. Your evaluation framework needs to be configurable per deployment while maintaining consistent quality standards across all of them.

Fully remote.

Responsibilities

  • Build automated test suites for retrieval quality, hallucination detection, and attribution accuracy
  • Design per-deployment quality benchmarks from representative query samples
  • Implement regression testing that catches quality degradation after model or index updates
  • Create quality dashboards per deployment with configurable alert thresholds
  • Develop synthetic evaluation datasets for knowledge base coverage testing
  • Collaborate with LLM engineers on quality-driven architecture improvements

Requirements

  • 3+ years in NLP engineering with RAG or information retrieval system experience
  • Experience designing evaluation frameworks for generative AI systems
  • Familiarity with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or equivalent RAG frameworks
  • Strong Python skills and analytical mindset for quality metric design
  • Understanding of hallucination patterns and retrieval failure modes in LLMs

Benefits

  • Fully remote
  • Health, dental, and vision
  • $3,000 professional development budget
