Responsibilities

  • Build agentic workflows that combine models, tools and human review, and recognize when a decision needs an expert
  • Ground outputs in source documents and domain knowledge so every result is traceable and explainable

  • Experience with agentic patterns such as tool use, multi-step workflows, self-verification and human-in-the-loop review
  • Experience with retrieval-augmented generation, embeddings and source-grounded output
  • A rigorous approach to evaluation: defining metrics, building test sets and doing systematic error analysis
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including working directly with domain experts
  • Works autonomously with minimal direction, sets a clear path through ambiguity, and holds a high bar for quality
  • Thrives on the energy of a start up: comfortable with pace, changing priorities, and building the function while running it
  • Experience with insurance, legal, financial or other contract-heavy documents (strongly preferred)
  • Experience with LangGraph or similar agent frameworks (preferred)
  • Experience with LLM observability and evaluation tooling (preferred)
