Job description
About Scribble Data
Scribble Data is a generative AI (GenAI), machine learning (ML), and advanced analytics data products platform company. It focuses on the Annuities and Pension Risk Transfer (PRT) segments of the Insurance industry in the US, Canada, and UK.
Hasper Scribble Datas flagship product, is designed to implement and transform internalfacing complex workflows to streamline insurance operations, enable actuarial work, and accelerate decisionmaking. It enables businesses to utilize large language models (LLMs) to bridge the gap between decision workflows and natural language, combining ML with a builtin rules engine. It provides a fullstack solution for data preparation and lightweight ML algorithm execution, coupled with a lowcode consumption interface designed for business users.
For added security and trust, Hasper offers various secure hosting options for customers, ranging from onpremise to virtual private cloud.
About the Product
Hasper is a fullstack solution in Python that enables customers to build internalfacing data products and workflows using LLMs and MLRS (ML at Reasonable Scale) robustly and quickly. It trades scale of data for speed of development and deployment, strong auditability, and lower skill. With the tradeoffs, Hasper is able to deliver 5x speedup over existing development processes and tools, and enables endtoend productionisation of use cases with a remarkably high success rate.
About the Role
Scribble Data customers trust them with their data and the outputs and expect cuttingedge tools and thought processes. The product is at the center of the relationship with customers. We work smart, invest in tools and tech that are on the cutting edge of advanced analytics, and package all that we’ve learnt about efficiency and data mileage into our products.
As a Lead Engineer, you will work on extending functionality for Hasper. Your role will also include delivering working systems atop Hasper for Scribble’s customers with high attentiontodetail ensuring trust, robustness, performance, and ease of use. Your responsibilities will include:
Develop highperformance data processing systems.
Develop and deploy robust, distributed, scalable, near realtime, data processing infrastructure that can support various downstream applications including reporting, analytics, user intelligence, machine learning, and decision support.
Incorporate customer feedback and new asks from customers into ongoing deliverables.
Accept nothing less than topquality code and think in terms of code reviews, unit, integration, endtoend tests in a fastmoving development environment, delivering incremental value daily.
Track and research emerging trends as well as competitors, thereby creating feedback loops for the product team.
