Job description

  • Define quality metrics for incident diagnostics, root-cause analysis, alert correlation, grounding, tool use, safety, and operational usefulness.
  • Build offline and online evaluation pipelines in Python and integrate them with CI/CD, experimentation, model selection, prompt iteration, and release gating.
  • Lead the creation and maintenance of golden datasets and regression suites using alerts, events, metrics, logs, traces, topology, configuration data, incident timelines, change records, ITSM workflows, and historical investigation outcomes.
  • Build representative, customer-specific scenarios covering different technologies, failure modes, operational patterns, and environmental constraints.
  • Use human-authored and AI-assisted methods to generate regression, edge, adversarial, rare, ambiguous, and incomplete-context test cases.
  • Treat evaluation datasets and test suites as first-class components that evolve alongside Edwin AI.
  • Design step-level and trajectory-level evaluations for multi-step and multi-agent workflows.
  • Assess both final outcomes and intermediate behavior, including planning, reasoning consistency, retrieval, evidence use, tool selection, tool parameters, state transitions, escalation decisions, and human-in-the-loop approvals.
  • Identify whether failures originate from models, prompts, retrieval, data quality, tools, agent logic, orchestration, or infrastructure.
  • Evaluate capabilities including incident investigation, on-call assistance, operational question answering, change-impact analysis, remediation recommendations, automated resolution, infrastructure operations, and ITSM and observability integrations.
  • Design and calibrate LLM-based graders against expert human judgment.
  • Monitor AI quality and behavioral drift in production, and convert failures and customer feedback into new tests and safeguards.
  • Establish evaluation-driven development practices and mentor other engineers.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in software engineering, machine learning, applied AI, or a related field.
  • Strong Python engineering skills and experience building production systems.
  • Hands-on experience with AI evaluation, experimentation, testing, and quality frameworks.
  • Experience using multiple LLM and agent evaluation frameworks, such as LangSmith, Arize Phoenix, Braintrust, DeepEval, Ragas, TruLens, OpenAI Evals, MLflow, or comparable platforms.
  • Ability to select, customize, and integrate evaluation frameworks for offline testing, online monitoring, regression analysis, experimentation, model and prompt comparison, and release gating.
  • Strong understanding of LLMs, agents, retrieval-augmented generation, prompt engineering, tool calling, and context engineering.
  • Experience evaluating non-deterministic, multi-step, or multi-agent AI systems.
  • Ability to translate human and domain-expert judgment into test cases, evaluation rubrics, scoring functions, and automated graders.
  • Experience with LLM-as-a-judge techniques, including grader design, calibration, reliability measurement, and alignment with expert human judgment.
  • Experience with regression testing, CI/CD, production monitoring, behavioral drift detection, and failure analysis.
  • Strong analytical, systems-thinking, and communication skills., At this time, we are able to consider candidates who are authorized to work in the United States on a full-time, permanent basis without requiring new or initial employer-sponsored work authorization.

Candidates who currently hold valid U.S. work authorization that can be transferred to a new employer (such as certain H-1B statuses) may be considered on a case-by-case basis.
