- Experiment with query rewriting, expansion, and classification to improve retrieval relevance.
- Collaborate closely with Product to bring ML-powered search agents into production.
- Profile, debug, and optimize the latency, accuracy, and scalability of retrieval and generation components.
- Contribute to the design of data pipelines for training retrieval and ranking models, including dataset curation, augmentation, and labeling workflows.
- Stay up-to-date with advancements in LLMs, retrieval techniques, and agent architectures, evaluating opportunities to integrate them into our systems.

- Familiarity with LLMs, prompt engineering, and retrieval-augmented generation pipelines.
- Understanding of evaluation methods for search systems, including offline metrics and user-facing evaluation.
- Experience working with vector database infrastructure (FAISS, Milvus, Weaviate, Pinecone, PGVector) and traditional search engines (Elasticsearch, OpenSearch)
- Understanding of data pipelines, preprocessing, and large-scale data handling.
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment, balancing research and production needs.
- Develop and implement CI/CD pipelines. Automate the deployment and monitoring of ML models.
- Knowledge of query understanding, document summarization and other content enrichment strategies

- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure) for scalable ML workflows.
- Experience with agentic system design for LLM workflows.
- Background in conversational search.
- Contributions to open-source projects in the retrieval, NLP, or LLM ecosystems.
We're looking for builders who:
