Responsibilities
Ship Code & Lead from the Front
Act as a Player/Coach: Architect the system and mentor the team, but spend significant time hands-on in the codebase (Python/PyTorch)
Own the core chat loop: Optimize context windows, memory/RAG retrieval, and inference latency to ensure a seamless, real-time experience
Own the Model Lifecycle
Drive our strategy for SFT (Supervised Fine-Tuning) and RLHF/DPO (Preference Optimization). You decide when to prompt, when to fine-tune, and when to architect a new RAG pipeline
Manage the "Data Engine": oversee the sourcing, labeling, and cleaning of diverse datasets to improve model steerability and multicultural performance
Architect High-Precision Moderation
Build the immune system of the platform. You will design and train custom classifiers to detect and filter non-consensual or illegal content within an explicit environment
Move beyond binary "safe/unsafe" flags to create nuanced, context-aware moderation systems

You are comfortable working with NSFW content and understand the technical rigor required to moderate it effectively without breaking the user experience
You understand the physics of LLMs—how prompt conditioning, temperature, and sampling affect the 'soul' of a chatbot

You can distinguish between a 'perfect' academic solution and a 'shippable' production solution
You don't rent code
You obsess over metrics, regressions, and the user experience long after the code has been merged
