About the role

Help build the personalized provider-recommendation pipeline end to end: user understanding with LLMs, provider retrieval and ranking, backstage agent workflows, multi-source knowledge integration, and evaluation, working with engineers and product managers from design through launch.

What they're looking for

  • User understanding and personalization: use LLMs to extract service requirements, preferences, and constraints from conversations, profiles, and context
  • Provider retrieval and ranking: combine semantic search, recommendation algorithms, and provider features (capabilities, coverage, transaction-backed reputation, user fit) to improve relevance and coverage
  • Agent workflows: build backstage pipelines connecting intent understanding, retrieval, provider comparison, and recommendation decisions, with explanations a user can check
  • Multi-source data and knowledge integration: entity matching across business information, reviews, credentials, and service coverage
  • Evaluation and delivery: build evaluation datasets, analyze failure cases and user feedback, improve quality, reliability, and latency, ship and iterate
