Build the evaluation harnesses, tracing pipelines, and telemetry systems that catch hallucinations, regressions, and silent failures before your customers do. The discipline that turns "it worked in the demo" into "it works every day in production."
Automated evaluation pipeline that flags unsupported or fabricated citations in a legal research agent.
Telemetry stack that detects when a market-analysis agent's output quality degrades after a model update.
Live observability dashboard tracking resolution accuracy, tone, and escalation rates across support agents.
Indicative ranges based on current AI quality/observability hiring patterns — actual compensation varies by experience, company, and geography.

One of the fastest-growing specializations as enterprises move from pilots to production and need provable reliability, not just capability.
Hands-on labs use Langfuse, LangSmith, Arize Phoenix, and OpenTelemetry, with dashboarding in Grafana. Concepts transfer to any evaluation/observability stack.
Both. The program covers single-turn LLM evaluation as well as multi-step agent trajectory evaluation, which requires different tracing and scoring approaches.
