• Integrate LLM tooling (e.g., LangChain, RAG, embeddings) to automate extraction, mapping, and linking
• Design and manage knowledge graph operations, including ingestion, enrichment, and alignment of data
• Translate unstructured text into structured graphs (entities, relationships, attributes) using state-of-the-art tools and prompt-driven workflows
• Own and conduct rapid prototyping on AI functionalities, delivering 'WOW' moments on the customer end
• Conduct experiments to validate model performance and optimise effectiveness
• Monitor and maintain AI system performance, identifying and addressing issues proactively
• Provide technical insights and support to other teams on AI-related tasks and stay up to date with trends and newest findings

Benefits

We are an early-stage organisation that values speed of development without cutting corners on core product quality. We are in the game to build scalable and maintainable software and seek engineers, not just programmers, who push the edge of tech between language models and math and can translate complex data into simple, coherent computation flows. Everyone should have skin in the game why we offer both competitive salaries and equity packages. Ownership and authority in decision-making are not only possible but required. We love hard work and sports, so that benefit is also covered. Can't wait to chat!
