Job Description

• Define conversation flows and dialogue architectures to support multi-turn, context-aware, natural dialogs. • Develop, write, and optimize prompts to guide large-language models (LLMs) or other generative models toward accurate, context-appropriate, safe outputs • Fine-tune and/or adjust models (when applicable), including prompt tuning, fine-tuning, or parameter optimization, to align model behavior with product and user goals. • Integrate conversational AI with existing backend systems via APIs and data pipelines; ensure seamless data flow, context handling, and retrieval when needed. • Iterate on conversation design through testing: run A/B tests, user simulations, evaluate model outputs (with both automated metrics and human review), debug edge cases, and improve performance over time. • Collaborate closely with product managers, UX / conversation designers, data engineers, and other stakeholders to define requirements, ensure ethical and safe model behavior, and deliver polished user experiences.

Job Requirements

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience preferred.
  • 5 plus years of experience in software engineering with a strong focus on **Python** development and strong **problem-solving** skills
  • Demonstrated experience in **conversation architecture / design**: defining dialogue flows, state/context management, branching logic, user experience considerations in conversational UI.
  • Deep expertise in **prompt engineering**: writing, testing, and refining prompts to guide large language or generative models toward desired behavior, leveraging techniques like few-shot, zero-shot prompting, chain-of-thought, role prompting, or context conditioning.
  • Experience with **model tuning** (prompt tuning, fine-tuning, hyperparameter adjustment) or otherwise optimizing model outputs to meet quality, safety, and reliability standards.
  • Practical experience with at least one **conversation / agent platform** (e.g. Dialogflow preferred; or other chatbot/voice-bot platforms / agent frameworks). Ability to build, deploy, and maintain agents on such platforms.
  • Experience with **API integration;** connecting the conversational agent to backend services, databases, or external APIs to fetch or store context, user data, or dynamic content.
  • Solid **conversation design** experience; understanding of user-centered design, usability, natural language understanding / generation, user experience (UX) considerations, tone and style, context management, fallback and error handling.
  • Strong communication skills, ability to collaborate across disciplines (product, design, engineering, data), and translate technical AI capabilities into user-facing solutions.
