Member of Technical Staff – Prompt Engineering & Emergent Behaviour

Vaikhari AIShimoga, Karnataka, India
7 days ago
Job description

At Vaikhari AI, we are building the trust layer for AI. Our mission is to ensure AI systems behave reliably across languages, cultures, and real-world conditions. We design benchmarks, datasets, and tools that enable enterprises and researchers to measure, stress-test, and improve their AI systems with a special focus on underrepresented and low-resource languages.

Our founders are researchers and operators from BigTech and Unicorn startups, experienced in shipping at enterprise scale while executing with startup agility.

Role Description

We are looking for a Prompt Engineer with a strong technical background who deeply understands LLM behaviour and can design, test, and exploit emergent patterns in multi-modal and generative AI systems. This role combines research, experimentation, and engineering ideal for someone who can move seamlessly between conceptual design, empirical validation, and real-world implementation.

You will work closely with our AI scientists and data teams to design robust, generalizable prompt strategies, study model reasoning behaviour, and create evaluation setups that stress-test AI capabilities in complex or multilingual environments.

Responsibilities

  • Design, test, and refine prompts and prompt pipelines for text and multi-modal models.
  • Investigate and document emergent behaviours and their reproducibility across model families and scales.
  • Conduct structured experiments to understand how prompt structure, context, and modality influence model outputs.
  • Collaborate with research and engineering teams to build evaluation and trust metrics for generative AI systems.
  • Develop reusable prompt frameworks and templates for diverse tasks and domains.
  • Drive experiments independently, from hypothesis to insight, in ambiguous or rapidly evolving problem spaces.

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of experience in AI / ML and at least 2+ years in Generative AI or LLM-based systems.
  • Strong understanding of LLM internals, emergent behaviours, and reasoning limitations.
  • Experience with prompt engineering for text or multi-modal models (e.g., GPT, Claude, Gemini, LLaVA, or similar).
  • Proficiency in Python and comfort with frameworks such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, or OpenAI SDKs.
  • Familiarity with evaluation, data curation, and fine-tuning processes for LLMs.
  • Ability to work independently, design experiments, and derive insights from unstructured exploration.
  • Curiosity about language, cognition, and human-AI interaction.
  • Why Join Us?

  • Shape the trust layer for AI, working on problems that matter globally.
  • Be part of a founding-stage deeptech startup with exposure to both cutting-edge research and client-facing impact.
  • Work directly with a leadership team that has shipped at BigTech scale and built with startup speed.
  • Influence how the world evaluates, trusts, and deploys AI systems.
  • Create a job alert for this search
