About the Role
As an Evals Engineer (m/w/d) at Libra, you'll be the first dedicated hire on a new team that owns how we measure quality: the datasets, rubrics, judges and harnesses that decide whether an AI feature is good enough to ship, and the automated optimization that runs against them. You'll work in a lean, agile environment with AI Engineers, Legal Engineers and Product, based at the vibrant Merantix AI Campus in Berlin, surrounded by a community of AI innovators.
Responsibilities
- Build and own the eval platform: datasets, judges, harnesses, regression gates, cost and quality in one view, on Python, FastAPI and Langfuse.
- Make the eval platform self-service for AI Engineers to evaluate and tune their own features.
- Map the quality landscape for research, drafting, summarisation and retrieval across different jurisdictions.
- Design rubrics and set the standard for LLM-as-judge, turning expert judgment into version-controlled criteria.
- Keep judges recalibrated as models and jurisdictions change.
- Deep-dive results and traces to identify failure points and automate fixes.
- Instrument the app to allow automated optimization of prompts, hyperparameters, and harness architecture.
- Run automated optimization (GEPA, DSPy) against a fitness function.
- Make cheaper models win by treating quality per euro as a first-class metric.
- Own guardrails including ungrounded advice, invented citations, jurisdiction and language leakage, and prompt injection.
- Design, red-team, and prove guardrails hold.
Requirements
- Minimum 5 years in software engineering, with at least 1 year building LLM-powered products in production.
- Strong Python skills, including FastAPI, modern tooling, and the data stack (pandas, numpy, notebooks).
- Hands-on experience designing evaluations: datasets, rubrics, LLM-as-judge, benchmarking, human labelling.
- Solid security and data-privacy practice.
- Experience with AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) in daily workflow.
- Genuine interest in the legal domain.
- Applicants may be required to appear onsite at a Wolters Kluwer office as part of the recruitment process.
- Candidates must participate in interviews without the assistance of AI tools or external prompts.
- Use of AI-generated responses or third-party support during interviews will be grounds for disqualification.
Skills
- Systems thinking and understanding of how systems can be gamed.
- Ability to evaluate metrics critically and report bounds.
- Skill in extracting expertise from busy individuals and building user-friendly tools.
- Macro-management approach: asking sharp questions, presenting options with trade-offs, and assisting in decision-making.
- Entrepreneurial, accountable, and pragmatic mindset.
- Excellent communication in English.
