If you have a solid foundation in QA or software engineering a healthy obsession with automation and a restless drive to learn youll fit right in.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Probabilistic Testing & Evaluation

  • Embrace the Unpredictable: Implement and refine testing workflows tailored for AI powered solutions where outputs are probabilistic rather than deterministic.
  • Regression & Drift Detection: Build guardrails to identify model drift prompt regression hallucination risks and safety violations before they hit production.

Dataset Curation & Tooling

  • Golden Datasets: Own the creation maintenance and scaling of high-quality golden datasets used as the source of truth for benchmarking model changes.
  • AI Eval Tooling: Champion programmatic evaluation tools such as Promptfoo DeepEval or Ragas to automate the assessment of prompt variants and model performance.

Strategy Execution & Collaboration

  • Chapter Alignment: Partner closely with the Chapter Lead QA to translate high-level AI QA frameworks into actionable daily tasks for technical teams.
  • Feedback Loop: Provide real-time feedback to the Chapter Lead on how the strategy is performing in the trenches recommending practical pivots based on real-world results.
