3. Support cloud operations on AWS/Azure, learning how to keep costs under control.
4. Create prompt libraries and participate in evaluation pipelines, guardrails, and automated quality checks.
5. Collaborate with product and linguistics experts to translate user stories into concrete rules and domain logic.
6. Run benchmarks and tweak models for accuracy, performance, latency, and cost, reporting findings to the team.
7. Build internal tools for prompt iteration, dataset curation, and model evaluation with guidance from more experienced engineers.
