Almawave is hiring a Senior Senior NLP Engineer — public-sector AI on the NLP team (Hybrid · Rome, Italy). This is a hands-on role in LLM & generative AI—not a generic “AI enthusiast” post.
You will own LLM features, retrieval, agents, and evaluation end to end: problem framing, offline evaluation, safe rollout, and iteration from production signals. Success is measured with clear metrics (quality, latency, cost, or business KPIs)—not slide decks alone.

What you will do
- Ship production Italian NLP and speech with offline evals, monitoring, and safe rollout.

- Improve data pipelines, labeling, and metrics tied to business KPIs.
- Document runbooks for on-call and customer-facing teams.
What we look for
- Strong Python and modern ML/LLM stack with shipped features.
- SQL, experimentation, and clear communication to stakeholders.
