Context:
We’re working with a seed stage company that is building software for insurance underwriters. They’re using langchain to compile data for underwriters on a per policy basis and then a fine-tuned LLM to offer up conversational interface that underwriters can use to better understand the viability of a given policy.
They’re looking for someone who can help them with their ops infrastructure for both their web app and the ML they’re doing.
You’d be working alongside the CEO, the CTO, a data engineer, and a web-focused engineer. If you’re open to it, there’d be an opportunity for you to take a full time job with these folks after the first 3 months.
