Responsibilities
- Design, prototype, and ship AI-powered product features from customer problem definition through production delivery.
- Build agentic and retrieval-based systems grounded in Neara’s digital twin, simulation outputs, expression language, and network data.
- Design AI guardrails, refusals, confidence signals, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints for safety-critical engineering use cases.
- Develop evaluation sets, regression testing, offline and online quality signals, observability, prompt and context versioning, and cost and latency controls.
- Collaborate with power systems and GIS specialists to ensure outputs are engineering-grade.
- Work directly with customers and cross-functional Product, Design, and customer-facing teams to prioritize and iterate on features.
- Help establish engineering standards for AI development and the use of coding agents.
Requirements
- At least 5 years of experience building and shipping production software, with strong backend or full-stack product engineering depth.
- Experience shipping AI features to paying customers in a commercial product and owning them after launch.
- Hands-on experience with retrieval, context engineering, tool use, agent orchestration, structured output, and prompt design.
- Ability to design and explain an evaluation approach for AI systems, including what it detected and missed.
- Strong judgment about appropriate AI use and experience designing for failure modes.
- Strong product sense and comfort working directly with users and product teams.
- Preferred experience includes regulated or enterprise environments, data residency, auditability, private deployments, and security review.
- Preferred background includes geospatial, 3D, CAD, simulation, engineering software, utilities, energy, or critical infrastructure.
- Experience with TypeScript, React, Python, Java, Dart, or Rust is desirable but not required.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and meaningful ESOP.
