About the TeamWe're an incubator-style team inside Parachute Health, scaling AI capabilities across the entire product ecosystem.
What you'll do- Design and build agentic LLM pipelines that power AI features across the product.
- Build full-stack product features: Python/FastAPI web applications, TypeScript or React web tooling.
- Prompt-engineer and iterate on LLM prompts and models. Evaluate and recommend improvements based on accuracy, latency, and cost.
- Strengthen our evaluation framework: curated datasets, evals, experiments, and regression identification, so we can ship changes with confidence.
- Improve production observability: accuracy signals and feedback loops.
- Contribute to architecture and technical direction.
- Actively partner with other product teams to understand their AI use cases and identify how to best enable and support them.
- Advise on when to apply an AI/LLM solution, and when not to: championing AI where it drives speed and ROI and steering away where it doesn't.
