Problem the Founders Are Solving

Problem the Founders Are Solving

"

As companies adopt RAG, they expect hallucination-free AI — instead they face:

  • Irrelevant / partial context retrieval

  • LLMs hallucinating with confidence

  • No way to score grounding or relevance

  • No metrics for retrieval impact or faithfulness

  • No standard benchmarks for RAG pipelines

80% of hallucinations originate at the retriever — not the model.

 This leads to fragile AI systems, broken chatbots & unstable enterprise deployments.

Approach to Building the RagMetrics Engineering Team

01

Understanding RagMetrics’ Vision & Constraints

We first aligned with the founders on:

  • The depth of evaluation required

  • Compatibility across models & pipelines

  • Future plans for enterprise-grade reliability

  • Expected performance benchmarks

This shaped the architecture and set the hiring bar.

02

Precision Talent Selection

RagMetrics is an engineer’s playground—so we assembled a team built for complexity:

  • Backend engineers with strong distributed systems experience

  • AI/LLM engineers experts in evaluation & pipeline design

  • Full-stack engineers capable of clean analytic dashboards

  • Data engineers skilled in vector search, embeddings, and retrieval tuning

No generic hiring. Only pipeline-minded engineers.

03

Pre-Deployment Upskilling (Our Moat)

Every engineer went through WhatBytes’ custom RAG curriculum, tailored to RagMetrics:

  • Retrieval evaluation methodology

  • Hallucination taxonomy

  • LLM-as-a-judge frameworks

  • Prompt evaluation design

  • Metrics instrumentation

  • RAG orchestration patterns

This meant engineers started Day 1 already aligned with the domain.

04

Forming a High-Compatibility Team

We curated a team with balanced strengths:

  • Senior AI engineers to lead RAG evaluation frameworks

  • Data/backend engineers to build scalable ingestion & scoring services

  • UI/UX engineers to craft performance dashboards

This created forward velocity and long-term code health.

05

48-Hour Integration Sprint

We orchestrated a rapid kickstart:

  • Repo + environment setup

  • Architecture walkthrough

  • Metric definition sessions

  • First evaluation pipelines

  • Early scoring prototypes

By the end of Week 1, the team was shipping measurable impact.
