You might be a good fit if you have:

• 5+ years of experience as an Analytics Data Engineer or similar Data Science & Analytics roles, preferably partnering with GTM and Product leads to build and report on key company-wide metrics.

• A passion for the company's mission of building helpful, honest, and harmless AI.

• Expertise in building multi-step ETL jobs, building robust data models through tooling like dbt; proficiency with workflow management platforms like Airflow and version control management tools through GitHub.

• Expertise in SQL and Python to transform data into accurate, clean data models.

• Experience building data reporting and dashboarding in visualization tools like Hex to serve multiple cross-functional teams.

• A bias for action and urgency, not letting perfect be the enemy of the effective.

• A "full-stack mindset”, not hesitating to do what it takes to solve a problem end-to-end, even if it requires going outside the original job description.

• Experience building an Analytics Data Engineering (or similar) function at start-ups.

• A strong disposition to thrive in ambiguity, taking initiative to create clarity and forward progress.

Key Responsibilities

• Prompt Engineering Excellence: Design, test, and optimize system prompts and feature-specific prompts that shape Claude's behavior across consumer and API products.

• Evaluation Development: Build and maintain comprehensive evaluation suites that ensure model quality and consistency across product launches and updates.

• Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner closely with product teams, research teams, and safeguards to ensure new features meet quality and safety standards.

• Model Launch Support: Play a critical role in model releases, ensuring smooth rollouts and catching regressions before they impact users.

• Infrastructure Contribution: Help build and improve the frameworks and tools that allow teams to develop and test prompts and features with confidence.

• Knowledge Transfer: Mentor product engineers on prompt engineering best practices and help teams build their first evaluations.

• Rapid Iteration: Work in a fast-paced environment where model capabilities advance daily, requiring quick adaptation and creative problem-solving.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of software engineering experience with Python or similar languages.

• Demonstrated experience with LLMs and prompt engineering (through work, research, or significant personal projects).

• Strong understanding of evaluation methodologies and metrics for AI systems.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills – you'll need to explain complex model behaviors to diverse stakeholders.

• Ability to manage multiple concurrent projects and prioritize effectively.

• Experience with version control, CI/CD, and modern software development practices.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Claude or other frontier AI models in production settings.

• Background in machine learning, NLP, or related fields.

• Experience with A/B testing and experimentation frameworks (e.g., Statsig).

• Familiarity with AI safety and alignment considerations.

• Experience building tools and infrastructure for ML/AI workflows.

• Track record of improving AI system performance through systematic evaluation and iteration.
