About the Role
P-1408 The Mission We are democratizing Data and AI for every enterprise user. Our vision is a world where anyone can master their organization’s data through Apps and AI Agents. We are building the retrieval backbone for two worlds: the high-precision context layer for AI agents and the intuitive search experience for people goal is the same: instant, accurate, and actionable insight. The Role : As a Search Quality Engineer, you sit at the heart of this transformation. You aren't just building a search engine; you are building the contextual backbone of the entire company. You will own the quality of results for two distinct but deeply connected "users": The AI Agent: Optimizing the retrieval layer that allows LLMs to reason over data they weren’t trained on, ensuring they have the "ground truth" needed to synthesize accurate, high-stakes business actions. The Human User: Improving the traditional search experience so employees can find assets and answers through intuitive, high-recall interfaces. The Technical Challenge This isn't a solved problem. You will be tackling "Search" in its most evolved form: Hybrid Retrieval: Balancing traditional keyword-based search (for exactness) with semantic vector search (for intent). Dual-Optimization: Fine-tuning ranking models that satisfy both human readability and LLM-ready context. High-Stakes Accuracy: In a world of Agents, poor search quality leads to hallucinations. You will build the guardrails and relevance scoring that ensure our AI stays grounded in reality. Data Heterogeneity: Connecting the dots across structured SQL tables, unstructured docs, and real-time business metrics. Why This is the Place to Be You will have a front-row seat to the Agentic revolution. If you want to solve the hardest problems in data discovery and see your work power the decision-making of thousands of people, let’s talk. What We’re Looking For The IR Specialist: You know your way aroun
