Job Description:

Join a well-funded, consumer-focused (dating related) startup building next generation AI powered experiences. This is an opportunity to be part of a small, high caliber team where your work directly shapes the product, the user experience, and the company’s trajectory.

We’re looking for an AI Engineer who thrives in fast-paced environments, ships quickly, and cares deeply about quality, reliability, and craft. The founder comes from a leading dating website.

  • Compensation: $200K–$300K base + meaningful equity
  • Location: Onsite in New York City
  • Work Environment: Highly collaborative, in person team culture
  • Tech Stack: GenAI, Python, SQL Alchemy, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Langfuse, TensorZero, Promptfoo
  • Sponsorship: Not available

Responsibilities:

  • Design, refine, and maintain prompts, structured outputs, and orchestration systems that power core AI features.
  • Build evaluation infrastructure to measure AI quality at scale using tools such as Langfuse, TensorZero, and Promptfoo.
  • Partner closely with product, engineering, and research to translate AI capabilities into polished, user-facing features.
  • Run structured experiments across models, prompts, and configurations to optimize for quality, cost, and latency.
  • Develop internal tools—dashboards, admin interfaces, debugging workflows—that give the team visibility into system behavior.
  • Identify opportunities to finetune open source models (SFT, DPO, RLHF) to improve performance and reduce cost.

Requirements:

  • 1–2+ years building LLM-powered products in production
  • 1–3 years in software or ML engineering.
  • Proven experience shipping, deploying, and monitoring AI applications over time.
  • Comfort working in an early-stage environment where ownership is high and iteration is fast.
  • Experience with recommendation systems or consumer-facing products.

Keywords: AI Engineer, GenAI, LLM, Python, ML, Prompt Engineering
