Qualifications: - You enjoy rapidly building prototypes that demonstrate the boundaries of what LLMs are capable of, and you have developed resources to measure those capabilities. - You have spent dozens of hours reviewing complex data and LLM outputs to ensure high data quality. - You are obsessive about rigorously measuring AI capabilities, and also about making sure your measurements actually align with the capabilities you care about. - You have strong software engineering skills.
