## Description

About the company

Our client is a software company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Lead the creation of a measurement approach for an AI system that carries out technical design work. Draw on both hands-on engineering judgment and evaluation know-how, and collaborate with domain experts and other teams to convert findings into clear improvement priorities.

What you'll do

\- Establish a new assessment framework that defines quality for design work where several answers can be valid.

\- Collaborate with domain experts, external users and internal teams to see how seasoned engineers operate and where the system struggles.

\- Reproduce realistic design tasks and typical failure cases in repeatable test setups that developers can run again.

\- Create and tune automated graders alongside human review processes, and confirm that the graders agree with expert opinion.

\- Convert assessment results into a ranked list of improvements to the system's reasoning.

## Requirements

What we're looking for

\- About five or more years of professional experience in hardware engineering, AI, or a blend of both, with depth in one and practical familiarity with the other.

\- Substantial hands-on background assessing AI systems, including authoring test tasks, building automated graders and benchmarking them against human review.

\- Solid grasp of how autonomous, agent-style AI systems behave.

\- Grounding in a hardware engineering field, enough to tell sound design from weak design.

\- Comfort working directly with external users, specialists, partners and technical colleagues across functions.

\- Self-assurance to guide work among many stakeholders in a role with high ownership.

\- Based in the US or Canada, and able to travel to an office for one week every 6 weeks.

Bonus points

\- Prior time at a robotics or physical AI company.

\- Experience building things from zero in an early-stage startup.
