Prompt Engineering Patterns
Overview
World-class prompt engineering patterns for senior prompt engineer.
Core Principles
Production-First Design
Always design with production in mind:
- Scalability: Handle 10x current load
- Reliability: 99.9% uptime target
- Maintainability: Clear, documented code
- Observability: Monitor everything
Performance by Design
Optimize from the start:
- Efficient algorithms
- Resource awareness
- Strategic caching
- Batch processing
Security & Privacy
Build security in:
- Input validation
- Data encryption
- Access control
- Audit logging
Advanced Patterns
Pattern 1: Distributed Processing
Enterprise-scale data processing with fault tolerance.
Pattern 2: Real-Time Systems
Low-latency, high-throughput systems.
Pattern 3: ML at Scale
Production ML with monitoring and automation.
