Concentrate AI provides a unified, OpenAI-compatible API to access, route, and manage LLMs. We save our customers time, cut costs, and reduce risk. We manage high-volume AI traffic and logs.
We’re seed-stage, well-funded, and in stealth. This role is fully remote.
The Role Build, run, and debug LLM applications on top of Concentrate. You’ll work on production workloads (customer-facing and internal), stress test the platform, and share feedback and learnings with the product team.
Key Areas of Responsibility:
- Build LLM-powered services, workflows, and applications using Concentrate
- Integrate with real production applications and environments
- Design reliable interactions with LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, OSS), including prompts, tool calling, evals, and guardrails
- Debug failures across models, APIs, and infrastructure
- Write code, scripts, and small tools to test system behavior at scale
- Reproduce bugs, isolate root causes, and clearly document findings
- Drive improvements to APIs, defaults, and overall developer experience
What We’re Looking for
- Hands-on experience integrating LLMs via APIs in production
- Always building tools, scripts, side projects, or experiments to test ideas and learn fast
- Strong Python; TypeScript is a plus
- Comfortable with REST APIs, async systems, and production debugging
- Curious about model behavior under load, failure, and edge cases
- Familiarity with tool calling, agents, multi-step workflows, or MCPs
- Strong code quality and technical judgment
- Comfortable operating in early-stage environments with speed and ambiguity
- Clear async communication (Slack, written updates, concise docs)
- Fluent written and verbal English required for documentation, incident response, and technical and business presentations.
- Bonus: active open-source contributor
Comp: Base + bonus + meaningful equity
