Responsibilities

  • Own the evaluation strategy for North across agent workflows, tool use, enterprise knowledge work and other human-AI interactions.
  • Build high-quality evaluations from user feedback, production failures, privacy-preserving usage logs, internal dogfooding, customer needs and product goals.
  • Create systems that continuously convert product learning and user feedback into current evaluations rather than static benchmarks.
  • Analyze evaluation results, customer-derived data and product context to identify model failures and capability gaps.
  • Translate North-specific needs into actionable recommendations for central modelling teams, including model selection, patches and regular model updates.

Requirements

  • Experience improving LLM-powered, agent-powered or AI-product systems through evaluations, feedback loops, data curation, prompting, model adaptation or model selection.
  • Strong applied machine learning judgment and the ability to reason about model behavior, evaluation validity, product outcomes and production tradeoffs.
  • Deep interest in evaluation craft, including representative tasks, precise rubrics, clean data, failure analysis, regression tracking and detecting false confidence in metrics.
  • Ability to work closely with users and product teams and translate qualitative signals into actionable measurement.
  • Self-directed and practical approach to open-ended problems requiring technical depth and product understanding.
  • Commitment to making AI systems useful in real enterprise settings rather than merely improving abstract benchmark performance.

Benefits

  • Weekly lunch stipend of $75/£75 or local-currency equivalent.
  • Full health and dental benefits with a separate mental-health budget.
  • RRSP matching, 401K and pension scheme options.

  • Remote-friendly work arrangement with offices in Toronto, London, New York City, San Francisco, Montreal, Paris, Berlin and Seoul.
  • Coworking benefit for employees who are not near an office and a $500 home-office stipend.
