AI Development Engineer Intern

Bybit; Hong Kong; On-site; HKD 720,000 - 1,100,000; Full time

Job summary

Bybit is seeking an AI/LLM Engineer in Hong Kong to ship features across the stack using LLM APIs, with a focus on reliability, testing, and data-driven decision making.

You will work with internal users and external counterparts to turn feedback into actionable improvements, build robust evals, and report metrics that guide product direction in a fast-paced crypto tech environment.

Qualifications

• Built something real with LLM APIs: prompting, streaming, tool calling, failure handling.
• Git, tests, and debugging to root cause instead of guessing.
• SQL and enough data sense to spot an outlier skewing an average.

Responsibilities

• Ship features on either side of the stack — gateway routing, MCP servers, agent workflows, knowledge base, or a user-facing AI feature.
• Build the evals that prove a prompt or retrieval change actually helped, before it reaches users.
• Prototype in days, then add the tests and logging that let it run unattended in production.
• Pull adoption, cost, and quality data, and report what you find — including when it contradicts the story.
• Talk to the people using what you build, internal or external; their complaints are the roadmap.
