Project Lion - Prompt Engineer - United States (Remote, Part-Time)

We are seeking a Prompt Engineer to be responsible for the end-to-end technical migration workflow for transitioning templates to LLM autoraters. The role is required to use client’s internal tools to leverage prompt engineering techniques to maximize model performance.

Responsibilities:

  • Utilize Automatic Prompt Generation (APG) tools to create baseline prompts for complex parent-child template clusters.
  • Run and supervise Automated Prompt Optimization (APO) tool, review the outputs, and flag when the APO reaches deadlocks or plateaus.
  • Manually draft, test, and refine prompts to navigate complex template architectures, overcome anti-patterns, and handle edge cases where tooling is lacking or broken. Solve edge-case scenarios by designing and refining manual prompts.
  • Monitor shadowbot runs to ensure sufficient disagreements (between human and LLM ratings) are registered, generated, and tracked.
  • Run prompt versions against established gold data to continuously measure autorater quality against the human crowd baseline, calculating accuracy metrics such as F1 scores, precision, and recall.

  • Data Analysis: Strong proficiency in identifying error patterns, analyzing model performance, and using SQL or other data analytics tools.
  • Technical Agility: Ability to quickly learn and master proprietary tools with minimal supervision.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

Optional / Preferred Skills:

  • Familiarity with enterprise-grade LLM interfaces like the Goose API.
