Most technical Postings ask for hands-on work with large language models (LLMs), and for designing evaluations of AI systems. The platform Postings ask for distributed systems on AWS. Forward deployed engineers turn unclear customer needs into data pipelines and work directly with customers. Research Postings ask for a research background in machine learning, NLP, or LLMs.
