Job summary

United States Digital Space LLC is a leading real-time location platform seeking an experienced engineer to own the technical design and delivery of multi-component AI systems. You will define product specifications, measurement frameworks, and evaluation systems for non-deterministic behavior, while building scalable data pipelines and tools.

Expect cross-team collaboration, on-call duties, and continuous delivery.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in STEM and 5+ years of software engineering with production ownership of services/pipelines/SDKs.
• 2+ years shipping LLM-backed features to real users in systems with error budgets and on-call rotations.
• Experience designing evaluations for non-deterministic systems and describing datasets built to catch failures.
• Data engineering depth: SQL and at least one distributed processing framework and pipelines where a bad record matters.

Responsibilities

• Define product work, measurement framework, and evaluation systems for non-deterministic behavior.
• Run continuous evaluation of APIs, SDKs, data representations, and applications from end-user perspective; identify gaps and fixes.
• Own MVP against north-star design, balance perfection with shipping useful increments.
• Build data pipelines and tooling: ingestion, conflation, entity resolution, quality checks, batch and streaming jobs.
• Track external datasets, models, and benchmarks; decide when to adopt existing solutions or build anew.
• Design feedback loops so product usage generates data to improve it; instrument failures with context for reproduction.
• Design boundary between a model and the tools it calls; maintain model harness and routing.
• Work to latency and cost targets per request; implement streaming, partial results, caching, and model routing.
• Build internal harnesses and shareable parts; raise the bar via code/design reviews.
• Answer open technical questions and participate in on-call rotations for 24/7 reliability.
