You'll help set the correctness bar, making sure the skills and tools we ship: are backed by evals rather than assumed to work.

- + years of software engineering experience working on backend systems, services or libraries.
- Proficiency with AI/ML frameworks and a working understanding of LLMs,: agents, agent skills and protocols such as MCP. Interest in proving correctness through evaluation rather than assuming it.
