Quickly assess your retrieval systems using precision and recall metrics, identify bottlenecks, and confidently validate changes without sinking into endless trial-and-error cycles.

Run Fast, Unit-Test-Like Evaluations

Generate and utilize synthetic data sets to speed up experimentation, enabling you to test new approaches, embeddings, and architectures before committing full resources.

Leverage Synthetic Data for Rapid Iteration

Apply fine-tuning strategies for embedding models to boost search relevance and explore hard negative examples to further sharpen retrieval performance.

Master Fine-Tuning & Hard Negative Mining

Use query classification and segmentation techniques to pinpoint exactly where your RAG system falls short—whether it’s due to limited inventory or insufficient capabilities.

Classify Queries & Identify Bottlenecks

Create tailored indices for documents, images, tables, SQL databases, and more. Learn when and how to fuse or layer these indices to handle complex retrieval tasks elegantly.

Design Specialized Indices for Multiple Modalities

Implement synthetic text chunk generation and strategic summarization methods to improve retrieval results, ensuring end-users get clear, concise, and contextually rich answers.

Enhance Retrieval with Summarization & Chunking

Develop systems that intelligently route queries to the right indices, tools, or pipelines. Blend and fuse indices effectively to handle nuanced, multi-step queries.

Implement Query Routing & Index Fusion

Evaluate the performance of your routing logic and each individual index separately. Gain the nuance to fine-tune global system performance and local retrieval accuracy in tandem.

Optimize Both Global & Local Performance

Design explicit and implicit feedback mechanisms—capturing user signals, automating re-labeling, and applying improvements in real-time to keep your RAG systems on an upward trajectory.

Integrate Feedback Loops for Continuous Improvement

Follow a repeatable process to continually evaluate and improve your RAG application

Happy to share that due to executing some of the tactics shared in the program (taking action for one), I have been successful in getting myself promoted." — Promoted to Director - “What was key was that I actively participated in the live course AND followed through with some participants afterwards to talk shop and build relationships. One of those relationships just happened to be able to help when I needed it.&nbsp;Simply adding connections wouldn’t have been successful as they would have had no context about me, and not enough trust to put me in touch with important people in THEIR network.” — Landed FAANG Role - “When I took the ‘stuck at sr. manager’ course, Ethan mentioned that he knows that everyone wants to get promoted and wants it now but in the grand scheme of things, it’s not a big deal (paraphrasing, of course) since he knows us high performers are going to get there. Oddly, that comment didn’t make me lazier (“I guess i’ll get there anyway, so why try so hard”) but it grounded me a bit to take a breather and realize that it is not as urgent as I think it is and take the challenge (wanting a next level title) in stride!” — Promoted to Director - “I give so much credit to the Level Up: Breaking through to the Executive course and getting a front seat to Ethan's coaching and wisdom. Thank you for working to build this community that has given me to confidence to reach even in the current market environment! It is my dream role and I'm so grateful for the opportunity.” — Promoted to Director - “I am excited to share that I got promoted to Director and I sincerely thank and appreciate your help on this. I was not able to break through the barrier to Director level, partly due to constant changes happening in the company at leadership and strategies. I continued to apply my learnings from the community to influence the cross functional teams. Leadership was seeing the adaptability that I exhibited in continuing to add business value in new role and I was starting to get positive feedback from the VP on my flexibility. If I have to just pick one thing across all of Ethan’s teachings that helped me the most, it is being PROACTIVE. I am very grateful for your help and I really appreciate the learnings I have got as part of your community and your course on Stuck at Senior Manager. It really helped me to achieve this big milestone in my career. I thank you and Jason deeply as this promotion was very close to my heart." — Promoted to Director - "I’m excited to share some exciting news—I’ve landed a new job! I’m deeply grateful for your support and the scholarship. I can’t wait to apply everything I’ve learned in this new chapter of my career. Thank you again for your wisdom and generosity." — New Job TOP MAVEN COURSE- Top Course in Leadership &amp; Career- Top Instructor in Leadership- Featured in Maven's Executive Track- Featured in Maven's Fast Track- Featured in Maven 100- Featured in Lenny's List WHO THIS IS NOT FOR:- This is not for you if you want 1:1 coaching from Ethan.- This is not for you if you believe you already know what it takes to demonstrate executive performance and how to manage the promotion process.- This is not for you if you want a slower-paced course over several weeks.
