Bonus if you've built one yourself. •Fluent in the current AI landscape – you can articulate the differences between Claude Opus 4.5, Gemini 3, and GPT-5.2, and you have opinions on tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, and v0. •Hungry and curious – you're obsessed with the craft, experimenting constantly, and energized by how fast this space moves. •Strong prompt intuition – you can "decode" why a model is hallucinating or ignoring instructions without relying solely on automated evals. •Collaborative and clear communicator – you work well with designers and product managers, and you can explain complex AI concepts simply. •Not sure you meet every requirement? If you're building in this space and can't stop thinking about what's next, we want to hear from you. •A highly-skilled, inspiring, and supportive team Compensation: •Flexible work environment (work from home / hybrid options) •Bonus if you've built one yourself Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
