📋 Description

• Turn scenario specs, decision models and assessment rubrics into prompts, application logic and testable behavior • Spot missing requirements and technical constraints, and raise them with Product, Engineering and SMEs • Define how AI models connect to application services and approved data sources, including APIs, tool interactions, data structures, validation, error handling and permitted actions • Design prompts, structured outputs and validation logic, and catch invalid responses before they reach learners • Build conversational runtimes with controlled personas, session state and explicit state transitions • Keep simulation behavior, assessment logic and feedback separate so feedback cannot change assessment results • Implement grounding and retrieval from approved knowledge sources, with source references where required • Keep code, prompts, schemas and evaluation assets under version control, and document them • Run bounded experiments with Product, with clear questions and success measures • Take validated prototypes into production with Engineering, and check behavior stays the same • Help build technical controls that keep AI features compliant with accreditation requirements, including issue flagging, review steps, disclosure and logging

🎯 Requirements

• Expert prompt and context engineering: system prompts, few-shot examples, prompt chaining, routing, breaking complex tasks into steps • Structured outputs with JSON Schema, function calling and validation layers, with retry and fallback logic • RAG design: chunking, metadata filtering, hybrid search, reranking, citation grounding • Managing token budgets, prompt caching, context compaction and long-session memory • Agentic systems: tool use, planner/executor patterns, multi-agent orchestration, state machines, human-in-the-loop checkpoints • Defining tool schemas, permission scopes and action limits for agents • AI evaluation: golden datasets, rubric-based scoring, LLM-as-judge calibrated against human raters, regression testing • LLM observability and tracing • LLM security: prompt injection, data leakage, jailbreaks, unsafe tool actions, and guardrails • Comparing prompting, retrieval and model options on quality, latency and cost • Python or TypeScript, including API integrations and automated testing • Git (e.g. Bitbucket), reproducible tests and CI • Works with AI coding agents by default • Explains technical trade-offs to non-technical colleagues • Sound judgment on privacy, human oversight and the limits of AI-generated assessment or advice • Hands-on experience building LLM applications with multi-step conversational workflows • Experience collaborating with subject-matter experts • Background in learning products, assessment, simulations or regulated professional content (Preferred)

🏖️ Benefits

• Fully remote, long-term opportunity • Collaboration with broadly distributed staff • Agile-first teams
