  • Define and run LLM evaluations for quality, correctness, latency, cost, and regressions

  • Build observability and reliability infrastructure: logging, tracing, retries, state management

  • Optimize performance and cost from prototype to production

  • Mentor engineers and establish agentic best practices

  • 5+ years software engineering; 2+ years building production AI/ML systems

  • Hands-on experience with agentic architectures and tool calling

  • Practical experience with MCP servers

  • Experience with LangGraph or equivalent agentic frameworks
