About Nectar Social 🍊

Nectar Social is building the most advanced AI social commerce experience for businesses. Since starting the company, we've been winning over leading brands & retailers by establishing ourselves as the go-to platform for intelligent commerce experiences. Our platform enables high-growth brands and enterprises to transform how they engage with customers and drive revenue through AI-powered conversational solutions.

We've recently closed a significant funding round backed by tier-A investors and notable angels, including former leadership from Meta and Shopify.

About The Role

As a Senior AI Engineer at Nectar Social, you'll architect and implement our multi-agent system that orchestrates state-of-the-art LLMs to power intelligent commerce experiences. You'll work on complex challenges from agent orchestration to evaluation frameworks, ensuring our AI systems deliver reliable, cost-effective performance at scale.

In this role, your responsibilities would include:

  • Building robust multi-agent systems that coordinate complex tasks using third-party LLMs
  • Developing evaluation frameworks to measure and optimize agent performance across diverse scenarios
  • Creating efficient prompt engineering and optimization strategies to maximize model effectiveness
  • Implementing production-grade inference pipelines with focus on reliability and cost optimization
  • Designing guardrails and fallback systems to ensure consistent agent behavior
  • Working closely with product and infrastructure teams to ship AI features that delight customers

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of production engineering experience, with significant focus on AI/ML systems
  • Technical depth: Strong experience building systems with LLMs (GPT-4, Claude, etc.)
  • Engineering excellence: Track record of shipping reliable AI systems in production
  • System design: Experience optimizing large-scale AI applications for performance and cost
  • Problem solving: Proven ability to tackle novel technical challenges in AI

What Makes You Stand Out

  • Experience building multi-agent systems in production
  • Expertise in prompt engineering and LLM optimization
  • Background in conversational AI or commerce applications
  • Strong understanding of LLM capabilities and limitations
  • Track record of exceptional academic or professional achievement

We're looking for exceptional engineers who want to push the boundaries of what's possible with AI in commerce. If you're excited about building novel AI systems and seeing them make real impact in production, we want to talk to you.

Nectar Social is an equal opportunity employer.
