Job Description

About the RoleDescript is revolutionizing how traditional editing methodologies and AI technologies come together in every part of the creation process (recording, transcribing, editing, and sharing)

Key Highlights

  • Building a best-in-class product experience for agentic video editing interactions (eg. tuning prompt templates and other key user workflows, addressing user feedback, building key product capabilities like chat history, etc)
  • Setting the standard as a player-coach who builds with the team and defines how AI-native development drives rapid prototyping, fast execution, and high software quality
  • Driving rapid, data-driven experimentation to push the limits on quality for the video editing agent (eg. model/routing experimentation, pricing experimentation, core agent investments around harness and tool design and token optimizations, etc)
  • Deepening the Agent Quality flywheel to better prioritize our roadmap by leveraging user data and signals to strengthen Evals and product analysis methodologies
  • Partnering with AI Research on roadmap for exploratory Agent improvements (eg. novel context management strategies, RL/new model development, multimodel explorations, etc)

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

  • Experience building agents, developing evals, or leading teams building LLM-powered products
