Job description

impact for enterprise customers. What you’ll do Own large areas of the platform end to end, from design through to production deployment. Work on knowledge representation systems, including ontologies and knowledge graphs, to support structured reasoning over enterprise data. Design and implement RAG pipelines, including chunking, embedding, indexing, retrieval, and reranking. Build and maintain integrations between retrieval and ML components and diverse enterprise data sources, vector databases, APIs, and services. Develop context retrieval systems that balance recall, precision, latency, and cost. Build evaluation frameworks, datasets, and metrics to measure retrieval quality, context relevance, and end to end agent performance. Build reliable backend services and data pipelines that support ML and LLM components in production. Deliver experiments and new capabilities quickly, maintaining high quality and tight feedback loops with customers. Collaborate across product, ML, and
