Senior Level
$190K/yr - $220K/yrReforge is evolving to empower product teams beyond education by offering AI-powered tools that help teams ship high-quality software faster. As a Senior AI Engineer, you will play a key role in shaping how the platform uses large language models to deliver value to customers, focusing on building and improving LLM-powered products and features.
E-LearningEducation
Responsibilities
Prompt Engineering: Design, experiment with, and refine prompts and system instructions to maximize the effectiveness and reliability of LLMs across Reforge’s products
LLM-Powered Features: Collaborate with product and engineering teams to develop and integrate new backend features powered by LLMs, enhancing our Insight Analytics platform with intelligent capabilities
Continuous Improvement: Continuously evaluate the quality of LLM outputs via internal testing and user feedback. Iterate on prompts, model settings, or data pipelines to improve performance over time and deliver a better user experience
Model Evaluation: Design and implement evaluation frameworks to assess LLM performance across different use cases. Monitor key metrics and develop automated testing pipelines to ensure consistent quality
Coding & Integration: Write and maintain code (primarily in TypeScript, with some Python) to implement support for LLM interactions – including building retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, working with vector embeddings, and handling content chunking of large documents. A majority of your work will be in-code shipping product — not in prompting tools or notebooks
