Position Overview

SoftSnow is seeking a highly analytical and creative individual to join our team as an AI Prompt Engineer.

  • Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics, Computer Science, Communications, or a related field.

Experience:
  • 1–3 years of experience working with LLMs, conversational AI systems, or NLP applications.
  • Hands-on experience with tools such as OpenAI, Claude, Anthropic, or similar.
