## Description

We're building Novella on the belief that AI should touch every part of how E&S insurance is designed, sold, and serviced. We need an AI Engineer who doesn't just build models, but builds products. You'll own the development of agentic workflows and LLM-powered systems that sit at the core of what we deliver to brokers and carriers every day.

This isn't a research role. You'll ship autonomous agents and LLM applications into production, design evaluation frameworks to make sure they actually work, and push the boundaries of what's possible with AI in an industry that barely understands technology. You'll also be our internal AI evangelist - the person who makes sure every team at Novella, technical or not, is leveraging the latest AI tools to move faster and do better work.

The Day to Day

 * Lead the development of autonomous agents and LLM-based applications, covering the entire development lifecycle from initial design through production deployment and optimization.
 * Design and develop comprehensive evaluation frameworks, including datasets and benchmarks, to ensure our LLM applications meet quality standards and perform reliably over time.
 * Provide mentorship to team members, sharing your expertise in LLM development and helping build a strong AI first technical culture
