We’re hiring a Staff Applied AI Engineer @PrizePicks
Looking for someone that was experience working in an Applied AI capacity and is excited to help transition our org to being AI Native.
Must have:
-Strong engineering experience
-Has been in an Applied AI or AI focused role
-Be in ATL or NYC, or willing to relocate
DM if you're interested!
I don't know if you can find approachable & specific engineering tips and tricks like the ones in this piece anywhere else on X.
There's some gold in here
5 free packs for all @PrizePicks players in your account go try it out!!
Introducing @PrizePicksPacks, now available nationwide with cards worth millions, including the $8M+ Cooper Flagg grail. 👀🤑
Rip real cards for as low as $1, sell them back instantly for real cash, or ship ‘em home.
Sweat picks and rip packs, all on PrizePicks. 😈
We dont want interns @PrizePicks
We want builders, founders, and problem solvers. Students with high agency that will come work with us for a few years, solve real problems, learn as much as they can, and go start their own companies.
This event at our ATLHQ is just one of the ways we're making that happen. ~100 @GeorgiaTech students touring our one-of-a-kind office and having real conversations with our leaders about what we’re up to and how they can get involved.
Silicon Valley continues to prove it’s run by a bunch of clout chasing children then turns around and wonders why the world doesn’t trust them 😭
Update the app and let us know what you think!
We just shipped a performance update to the PrizePicks app. Snappier interactions, better responsiveness, and a smoother experience all around.
GPT-6 Astra helped us tackle much of the work behind this release. Thanks @OpenAIDevs, excited to get this into users’ hands.
Here's an easy, approachable writeup on how we load test a piece of our platform and what we do as a result.
...and yes the engineer's name is actually Chuck Wood 😎
Parlays on @PrizePicks!!
There's a ton of chatter today (mostly fluff) about automated tests, data, and validation to enable shipping faster in the AI age.
I like this piece because its a practical take on how we're solving the hardest part about automated testing: the data
.@DhruvMethi 's one of the best practical problem solvers I've worked with @PrizePicks.
So it was no surprise when he built a working solution for a low-lift way to standardize our MCP integrations while solving auth and governance in just ~3 weeks.
As LLM usage scales, tooling sprawl scales with it. This post walks through how we built a single authenticated gateway @PrizePicks that sits in front of every tool handling permissions, audit, and smart discovery in one place. Plus why owning that boundary is about more than plumbing.

Sharing a weekend hack with @theharishviswa: a reimagined PR review for the AI era.
Your code diff alone doesn't tell the full story. Your requirements, your agent session, and the decisions you made mid-build matter too.
We built something that reads all three and flags when they don't line up: 🧵
stop catfishing ur reviewers.
when agents write our code, the code is no longer the most important software artifact - the conversation with your agent is.
every prompt from plan to implementation is just as (if not more) important than the code for your PR.
review engineer conversations, not just their ai code.
There's a new version of this post
4/ Steps 3 & 4:
Code Alignment: Plan vs Code diff. Quotes your own session decisions back at you. Did you end up implementing what you planned to and what changed? Any scope creep or unfinished requirements?
Blast Radius: An adversarial review on your overall implementation. Did you introduce tech debt, blast radius, future regression risk anyone building on top of it will inherit?
5/ This doesn’t replace proper code reviews but it does give us an added layer to be more efficient while reviewing AI generated PRs on smaller, greenfield codebases.
Keep your eyes out for the results we see from this and more content like this in the coming weeks on @prizepicks_labs 👀
