AI/LLM Engineer

At WTMF (What’s The Matter, Friend?), we’re reimagining what emotional support looks like in the age of AI.

We’re building an emotionally intelligent companion — not just another chatbot. One that can really listen, understand the mood behind the message, and offer comfort, not just conversation.

AI/LLM Engineer

What You’ll Do

• Fine-tune and optimize large language models for warmth, emotional intelligence, and context-awareness.
• Build memory stacks that remember user preferences, moods, and conversational cues — safely and meaningfully.
• Work with product, design, and backend teams to deliver AI experiences that feel empathetic, not just efficient.
• Experiment with retrieval-augmented generation, sentiment classifiers, and emotion-aware model behaviors.
• Maintain ethical standards around safety, hallucination prevention, and user mental health boundaries.

What We’re Looking For

• 2–4 years of experience in ML, NLP, or LLM development (or equivalent practical experience).
• Comfort with tools like LangChain, Pinecone/Weaviate, and APIs like OpenAI, Claude, etc.
• Understanding of prompt engineering, embeddings, and personalization techniques.
• Curiosity, empathy, and a desire to make technology feel more human.
• A builder’s mindset — hands-on, fast-moving, and thoughtful.

Bonus Points If You

• Have worked on mental health, wellness, or journaling products.
• Have contributed to open-source LLM tooling or chatbot frameworks.
• Have written or spoken about AI safety, ethics, or emotional UX.
