Self-driving observability, evals, and gateway for AI agents. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
You will work on the systems that make Respan intelligent: automated evaluations, prompt optimization, model routing, and AI-powered analysis of traces and logs. This is deeply technical AI engineering, not just API calls. We are looking for someone who understands LLMs from the inside out and can build reliable, production-grade AI systems that thousands of teams depend on daily.
What they're looking for
- Strong software engineering skills with Python and TypeScript
- Hands-on experience building with LLMs in production (not just prototypes)
- Deep understanding of prompt engineering, eval methodologies, and model behavior
