Senior Prompt Engineer

Accrete AI

June 9, 2025 – Present

As a Senior Prompt Engineer at Accrete AI, I lead the design, instruction-tuning, and operationalization of high-impact prompts and prompt libraries for Accrete’s Expert AI Agents and Knowledge Engines. I build robust prompt templates, evaluation suites, and tooling that improve accuracy, grounding, and reliability of agentic workflows used by both enterprise and government customers.

Key Responsibilities & Contributions:

🔹 Prompt Engineering & Instruction Tuning

• Design, iterate, and optimize complex prompt chains, system instructions, and few-shot templates to improve agent reasoning and task reliability.
• Implement instruction-tuning experiments and evaluate model behavior across retrieval-augmented, chain-of-thought, and agentic patterns.
• Build reusable prompt libraries and guardrails for domain-specific Knowledge Engines to ensure grounding in verified sources and auditability.

🔹 Agent & Platform Integration

• Integrate prompts with Accrete’s Agent frameworks (Expert AI Agents / Knowledge Engines) to power automated analytic workflows and persistent memory.
• Develop end-to-end agent pipelines using LangChain-style orchestration, retrieval (RAG) connectors, and vector stores for grounded responses.
• Prototype and productionize agent behaviors that generate reports, perform triage, extract entities, and translate NL → SQL for non-technical stakeholders.

🔹 Productionization & Infrastructure

• Own prompt deployment patterns and CI/CD for model prompts, including A/B experiments, telemetry, and regression tests to catch prompt drift.
• Collaborate with platform and SRE teams on server deployment, secure API endpoints (FastAPI), MCP-compatible context management, and scalable host infra.
• Ensure compliance, logging, and evaluation tooling for high-assurance environments used by enterprise and government customers.

🔹 Research, Mentorship & Cross-functional Collaboration

• Run applied research into prompt methods, evaluation metrics, and model alignment; turn findings into pragmatic playbooks for product teams.
• Mentor prompt engineers and data scientists, evangelize best practices for prompt design, and lead prompt review sessions across product squads.
• Work closely with product, legal, and customer-facing teams to tailor agent behavior for domain constraints and user needs.

Impact & Achievements:

🚀 Operational & Product Impact

• Improved agent answer relevance and grounding by implementing structured prompt templates and RAG practices, increasing downstream task accuracy.
• Reduced time-to-insight for analysts by integrating prompt-driven automation into knowledge-engine workflows and Argus-style monitoring use cases.

🏆 Recognition & Outcomes

• Enabled production-ready Expert AI Agent behaviors that support enterprise/government workflows, improving decision speed and auditability.
• Built reproducible prompt testing infrastructure and prompt libraries now used across multiple product teams.

At Accrete AI I translate domain expertise into robust prompt-driven behaviors that power Expert AI Agents and Knowledge Engines, driving reliable automation, improved analyst productivity, and mission-critical decision support.
