About the Work
Keywords: Ops, LLMs, Observability
Budget: $150-$200/hour
Hours per week: 20
Term: 3 months with possibility of extension
Geographic Constraints: None
Timezone Constraints: 5 hours overlap with ET
Start Date: Immediate
Company Stage: Series A
Context:
We’re working with a company that is streamlining the workflows of insurance companies using AI.
They need to add llm failover and improve availability and to get there they need observability on what is going over the wire to and from their llms.
The work would involve doing an analysis of the existing state of observability tooling in the llm space, building prototypes with a few tools, recommending a path forward, and implementation.
Prior experience with llm ops or observability tooling would be great to have but given this is all very new we’re also very open to working with a strong infrastructure engineer who’s comfortable jumping into this space.
