Requirements
  • 6+ years as a professional software engineer, with a strong focus on backend TypeScript/Node and SQL-based systems.
  • Demonstrated hands-on experience with large language models—spanning personal projects, prototypes, open-source, or production—including prompt engineering, model evaluations/benchmarks, and understanding of RAG workflows.
  • Solid SQL/data modeling skills, ideally with exposure to PostgreSQL (extra credit for pgvector).
  • Experience with or enthusiasm for LLM infrastructure tools such as LangFuse and LiteLLM, as well as cloud-based deployment (AWS preferred).
  • Self-driven, communicative, and motivated to deliver impactful solutions in a fast-moving, highly collaborative environment.
Responsibilities
  • Spend approximately half of your time on LLM-driven work: crafting, refining, and evaluating prompts; designing and iterating RAG/data retrieval strategies; building prompt/response evaluation frameworks; and ensuring the quality and safety of model outputs.
  • Spend the other half building and scaling backend services in TypeScript/Node (GraphQL, PostgreSQL/pgvector, AWS) to serve, secure, and monitor our AI-powered user experiences.
  • Own features end-to-end: from technical design through implementation and infrastructure to monitoring.
  • Collaborate with product, design, and data teammates to transform user challenges into effective conversational solutions—rapidly iterating based on real-world feedback.
  • Stay on top of the latest GenAI research, open-source tooling, and best practices—advocating and implementing relevant innovations.
  • Contribute to team quality through code reviews, architecture discussions, and mentorship.
Desired Qualifications
  • Experience using LangFuse and/or LiteLLM for tracking prompts, responses, and evaluations
  • Familiarity with model observability stacks
  • Any exposure to fintech, security, or compliance challenges

Rocket Money helps people manage personal finances through a mobile app offering budgeting, spending tracking, subscription management, bill negotiation, credit score monitoring, and smart savings. It works by linking accounts and providing dashboards, alerts, and automated features; it negotiates bills on users' behalf and takes a fee from savings; subscriptions and budgeting features generate ongoing revenue. It differentiates itself by combining multiple personal-finance tools in one app with a member-centric approach and strong data security, monetizing via subscriptions and savings-based fees rather than one-off services. Its goal is to empower everyday consumers to gain control over finances, save money, reduce unnecessary expenses, and improve financial health.
