About the Role:

At Hippocratic AI, we offer the opportunity to work with a world-class team of researchers and engineers solving complex challenges through advanced Generative AI technologies, specifically applying this work to the Healthcare domain.

We are looking for a Senior Prompt Engineer to craft, refine, and optimize prompts for a system of collaborative AI models. In this role, you will collaborate with experts to enhance the effectiveness and safety of generative AI solutions by designing, testing, and improving prompts that drive clinical safety and patient experience

An ideal candidate loves experimentation and tinkering, is extremely thorough and detail oriented, and has a passion for conversation and communication.

Responsibilities:

Help achieve world class performance on several safety-critical LLM applications
Collaborate with product managers to write detailed product specs for how models should behave
Help design agentic model workflows
Use advanced prompting techniques to develop and optimize prompts for language models to improve model performance, clinical safety, and patient experience.
Contribute to automated model testing and evaluation infrastructure
Build automations to create and select the best prompts for any given task
Conduct experiments and analyze outcomes of model outputs to refine and iterate on prompt strategies.
Write and configure prompts to create engaging, patient-oriented conversations

Required Qualifications

Experience (5+ years) in a technical or semi-technical field, such as engineering, analytics, data science, or product management
Demonstrated product sense and intuition for conversation design
Proficiency writing simple scripts in Python
Familiarity with basic principles of machine learning, conversational AI, and Large Language Models

Preferred Skills

Experience developing, designing, and/or interacting with non-deterministic AI/ML systems
Experience designing and conducting experiments and statistical analysis, specifically measuring and optimizing the accuracy of model outputs
Experience with written language, communications and/or conversation design
Software engineering experience

Candidate Background

Given that the field of prompt engineering is very new, we understand that it’s unlikely that you will have direct experience on your resume. While direct experience in prompt engineering is not expected, we value transferable skills that align with the responsibilities of the position. Ideal candidates might come from various related fields where they have honed relevant skills in problem-solving, analytical thinking, and written communication.

You might be a good fit if you have an engineering background and have or are looking to move into a product role. Perhaps you’re a data scientist who writes on the side. Or maybe you are a conversation designer who dabbled in computational linguistics.

We are looking for high-aptitude adaptive thinkers who are willing to jump in and solve new problems using a variety of technical and non-technical approaches.
