> Build and iterate on full-stack GenAI prototypes, applying prompt engineering, RAG, vector DBs, and agentic frameworks while collaborating with Andrew Ng. Requires strong Python, modern frontend, cloud deployment, and rapid prototyping skills.
## Job Description
## What you will do:
- Drive rapid engineering efforts to build full-stack applications using GenAI tools, enabling deep exploration of product ideas, user experiences, and technical feasibility
- Apply GenAI building blocks (prompt engineering, graphDBs, vectorDBs, agentic frameworks, evals, and guardrails) to real-world development
- Make key decisions around infrastructure and platform choices, balancing short-term prototyping needs with long-term scalability
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and AI experts to create, test, and iterate on new concepts
- Use AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code) to enhance productivity and speed of iteration
- Gather user feedback and iterate quickly based on insights to improve usability and effectiveness
- Deploy and manage applications on cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, GCP, Supabase)
- Build and integrate APIs and third-party services
- Participate in architecture discussions and technical planning
- Identify and troubleshoot issues across the stack
- Contribute to improving development processes, tools, and team practices
- Stay current with industry trends and emerging technologies

## What you must bring:
- Demonstrated experience building applications that incorporate Generative AI
- Proficiency with GenAI tools and frameworks: prompt engineering, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate), agentic platforms (e.g., LangGraph, CrewAI), LLM evals, and guardrails
- Experience with front-end technologies like JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and modern frameworks
- Strong back-end skills, particularly with Python
- Familiarity with SQL and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.)
- Hands-on experience using AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) and understanding of best practices for effective use
- Proven track record of architecting, implementing, and deploying scalable and maintainable AI-powered systems
- Expertise in designing end-to-end system architectures involving front-end, back-end, APIs, and AI/ML components
- Deep curiosity and a fast-learning mindset especially around emerging trends in AI
- Ability to write scrappy, disposable code for fast prototyping, and clean code for scalable products
- Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively across disciplines

## Nice to have:
- Experience gathering user feedback directly and iterating based on insights
- Exposure to rapid prototyping methodologies and shipping MVPs
- Interest or experience in product design and product thinking
- Contributions to open-source GenAI projects or tools
- Familiarity with serverless architectures or edge computing
- Prior experience as a technical lead or architect on teams delivering AI-driven products
- Knowledge of advanced architecture patterns (microservices, event-driven architectures, datastore design)
- Experience with large-scale system design and high-performance cloud infrastructures
- Familiarity with governance, compliance, and security aspects in AI application architecture
