Prompt Engineer
NewAbout the Role
Join Hike to ship AI-first features. Strong with Midjourney and Gemini.
As a Prompt Engineer at Hike, you'll join a small, senior team building AI-native legal products from the ground up. You'll work daily with Midjourney, Gemini, Claude to design, ship, and scale features that customers use every day. This is a high-ownership role — you'll have direct input on what we build and how we build it.
What You'll Do
- Mentor junior builders and contribute to engineering standards
- Build retrieval, RAG, and agent pipelines that scale to thousands of concurrent users
- Architect end-to-end legal workflows that integrate LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) with internal systems
- Optimise inference cost, latency, and reliability across services
- Collaborate with product, design, and customer teams to translate business problems into AI solutions
- Own the full lifecycle of features — from spec, prototype, A/B test, to rollout
What We're Looking For
- 2–4 years of experience as a Prompt Engineer or in a closely related role
- Strong written communication — you can document decisions clearly
- Proficiency in Python, TypeScript, or both
- Strong hands-on experience with Midjourney / Gemini / Claude in real production environments
- Bias for shipping — comfortable owning ambiguous problems end-to-end
- Experience with prompt engineering, evals, and prompt-versioning workflows
- Solid understanding of REST APIs, webhooks, queues, and event-driven design
Nice to Have
- Experience with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or DSPy
- Comfort with Kubernetes, Terraform, or modern infra-as-code
- Past work in the Legal domain
- Open source contributions to AI / dev-tools projects
Why join Hike?
- Work on problems that genuinely move the needle in Legal
- Direct ownership — your code reaches real users within days, not quarters
- Learn from a team that has shipped at scale and built with Midjourney, Gemini, Claude from day one
- Tiny team, big surface area — wear multiple hats and grow fast
