Research Engineer, Post-Training
WE ARE AN APPLIED AI LAB BUILDING END-TO-END SOFTWARE AGENTS. We're the makers of Devin, the first AI software engineer. Our team is extremely talent-dense. Among our founding team, we have world-class competitive programmers, former founders, and leaders from companies at the cutting edge of AI including Scale AI, Palantir, Cursor, Waymo, Tesla, Lunchclub, Modal, Google DeepMind, and Nuro. Building Devin is just the first step—our hardest challenges still lie ahead. If you’re excited to solve some of the world’s biggest problems and build AI that can reason on real-world tasks, apply to join us. ROLE MISSION Post-training is the critical bridge between raw model capability and a system that is actually useful, safe, and effective in the real world. You will shape how our agents learn by iterating on training recipes, evaluations, and alignment methods that directly determine what Devin and our future systems can do. This role blends deep research and hands-on engineering. We don't distinguish between the two. WHAT YOU'LL ACCOMPLISH - Post-Training Recipe Development: Iterate on the full stack of datasets, training stages, and hyperparameters that determine model behavior. Measure how choices compound across evals and production performance, not just isolated benchmarks. - Evaluation Design and Integrity: Build evals that actually capture what matters. The loop never ends: define, optimize, realize the gaps, and rebuild. You'll be responsible for making numbers go up and making sure the numbers mean something. - Deep Understanding: When training produces results that don't make sense, you dig until you understand why. The goal isn't just to fix it; it's to carry that understanding forward to the next problem. - Alignment and Agent Behavior: Apply and advance techniques like RLHF, RLAIF, and constitutional approaches to shape how agents reason, act, and collaborate with humans in long-horizon tasks. - Scaling and Exploration: Measure how performance scales with data and compute, and develop new methodologies when existing ones hit ceilings. We expect both rigor and invention. EXCEPTIONAL CANDIDATES HAVE DEMONSTRATED - A track record of advancing ML systems through post-training, alignment, or related methods: RLHF, RLAIF, preference modeling, reward learning, or equivalent - Strong fundamentals in probability, statistics, and ML theory. The ability to look at experimental data and distinguish real effects from noise and bugs - Evidence of original contributions: publications at top venues, open-source impact, or equivalent industry results - Experience with large-scale distributed training and the debugging that comes with it - Systems-level thinking: not just model optimization, but understanding how training pipelines, data, and evaluation interact - Comfort with ambiguity and fast-moving research environments where priorities shift quickly - We care more about demonstrated capability than credentials. A PhD is one signal among many. RESOURCES & ENVIRONMENT - Small, highly selective team where research and product move together; prototypes reach real deployment quickly - Compute is not a constraint: large allocations with training jobs routinely running across thousands of GPUs from day one - The environment rewards speed, autonomy, and technical depth with minimal process overhead; this is one of the most competitive and fast-moving problems in AI - Everything needed to operate at frontier scale from day one. EQUAL OPPORTUNITY Cognition is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic under applicable law. We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities throughout the hiring process - please let us know if you need any.

We are a fast-moving, well-funded company, fresh off a $143M Series C at a $1.5B valuation — building Agentic Change Management, the control layer for software changes created by humans and agents. As AI writes more of the world's code, the bottleneck moves from implementation to judgment and helping human judgment scale is exactly the problem we exist to solve. ROLE OVERVIEW As an Applied Gen AI Engineer at CodeRabbit, you'll play a central role in designing, building, and deploying advanced generative AI systems that power our code review and developer productivity tools. You’ll be responsible for bringing the latest advancements in generative AI to life — integrating techniques like RAG, RLHF, and multi-step agentic reasoning into high-impact product workflows. You’ll collaborate with engineers, product managers, and technical leads to iterate on intelligent systems that deliver real-world value, improving how developers write, review, and ship code. RESPONSIBILITIES - Design and optimize LLM-based systems for high-quality, context-rich code reviews - Build and refine agentic workflows that reason across multiple steps and contexts - Develop and maintain knowledge base and retrieval pipelines (e.g., chunking, embeddings, semantic search) - Deploy generative AI models and pipelines into production and monitor performance - Collaborate across teams to ensure that AI outputs align with user needs and product goals - Analyze human-in-the-loop feedback and usage data to iteratively improve system performance - Apply RLHF, ranking, and reward modeling techniques to improve response quality over time - Stay current with the latest generative AI developments and apply them to new use cases QUALIFICATIONS - Education: Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, or related field, or equivalent practical experience - Experience: 5+ years applying ML or LLM-based systems in real-world production environments, with at least 2 years of industry experience focused on generative AI - Technical Skills: Strong programming skills in TypeScript and Python - AI Frameworks: Experience with tooling such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, OpenAI APIs, or vector databases like Pinecone or Lancedb - Prompt Engineering: Strong skills in prompt engineering - Data Fluency: Ability to extract insight from telemetry, logs, user signals, and structured feedback - Practical Mindset: Comfortable applying research-inspired methods to solve concrete product challenges - Cross-Functional Collaboration: Experience working across product, engineering, and design to deliver production-grade systems BONUS POINTS - Experience optimizing RAG systems and tuning retrieval performance using custom embeddings or search strategies - Hands-on experience with RLHF pipelines, reward modeling, or behavioral policy tuning in LLMs - Experience integrating LLM systems into developer tooling or collaborative workflows - Track record of contributions to open-source projects or publications in applied AI/ML WHY JOIN OUR ENGINEERING CULTURE? - CodeRabbit is building the next generation of AI-native developer tooling — starting with code review. We combine large language models with deep software engineering context to help teams ship faster, catch more bugs, and make better architectural decisions at scale. - We are a high-ownership engineering culture. That means no passive execution, no waiting for perfect tickets, and no narrowly defined task boundaries. Engineers here find problems before they're assigned, use AI as a core part of how they build, ship with judgment, and own outcomes from proposal to production. - Our operating philosophy: bias toward action, ship the smallest necessary coherent slice, validate proportional to risk, watch what happens, and make the system better. AI drafts; humans decide. Speed matters, but so does understanding what you ship. - This opportunity will be energizing for people who want real ownership, pace, and high standards. It's uncomfortable for people who prefer slow consensus or heavily managed workflows. - If you want to build tools that are changing how software gets written, and be held to the standard that the best engineers thrive under; we'd love to talk. OUR VALUES - 🤝 Collaborative Humans — Prioritizing collective intelligence - 🚀 Fearless Innovators — Turning obstacles into growth opportunities - 💪 Persistent, Passionate Developers — Thriving on complex, long-term challenges - 🎯 Impact-Driven Creators — Crafting intuitive tools for developers - 🧠 Rapid Learners and Un-learners — Adapting quickly in our fast-paced technological world

OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership https://openai.com/index/cerebras-partnership/ with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference. ABOUT THE ROLE You'll own model quality and performance for Cerebras' inference offerings. You will define what "good" looks like across the models we serve, building AI-driven systems to measure it at scale, and translating those signals into artifacts our customers and product team actually use. You'll use AI agents to spin up custom eval suites per customer use case, mine trajectories for representative test data, automate the repetitive parts of release qual, and help build performance datasets and benchmarking workflows for customer use cases. We want someone whose first instinct is "how do I get an AI agent to do this on a loop." You'll sit between engineering, product, and customer-facing teams. What You'll Do - Design eval suites with AI agents in the loop. For every model release, curate a thoughtful mix of advanced, basic, long-context, and customer-use-case-specific evals. Use Claude to generate, validate, and prune candidate test cases at speed. - Build custom evals for target customers by orchestrating AI agents to mine trajectories from their workloads and synthesize representative eval sets. - Automate eval execution end-to-end with AI-driven pipelines on top of standard tooling (Docker, Git, CI). The goal is a system that runs itself between releases, not a script you re-run by hand. - Build automations to forecast and benchmark model performance on Cerebras for our top customers, including modeling how fast customer-specific workloads will run in production. - Build product-quality tooling that synthesizes quality + performance data into a single, easy-to-use view. SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS - Experience building AI agents. You ship real systems with Claude (or equivalent) as a force multiplier. You've built things that would have been infeasible solo without AI agents in the loop. - Strong math/stats background.. - Comfort with Docker, Git, and the standard automation stack - A taste for tooling design. You've shipped something that a non-engineer used without complaining. Bonus if AI helped you ship it. ASSETS - Performance-tuning experience on custom silicon, GPUs, or FPGAs. - Experience designing evals for agentic / coding / long-context / multimodal use cases. - Familiarity with open-source eval frameworks (EvalScope, lm-eval-harness, etc.). - Experience building AI agents.

Post-Training Research Scientist
ABOUT BASETEN Baseten powers mission-critical inference for the world's most dynamic AI companies, like Cursor, Notion, OpenEvidence, Abridge, Clay, Gamma, and Writer. By uniting applied AI research, flexible infrastructure, and seamless developer tooling, we enable companies operating at the frontier of AI to bring cutting-edge models into production.

Join us and help build the platform engineers turn to ship AI products. THE ROLE This role sits at the frontier of our research agenda. You will pursue open problems at the intersection of post-training methodology and performant inference, and then collaborate with research engineering to translate findings into production systems. A meaningful portion of your time will be dedicated to research that deepens our understanding of how models learn, alignment, and architectural efficiency — questions that may not have immediate product application. The remainder will be directed toward research that solves concrete problems for Baseten's platform and customers, who are the fastest growing AI companies in the world like Cursor, Lovable, and Notion. We are looking for someone with sharp research taste and genuine creative instinct for problem selection. Someone who can identify questions that matter, design clean experiments to answer them, and push the state of the art. The environment here is not theoretical, but rather research that can be validated with eager customers who are serving billions of tokens a second. The Manifesto: https://labs.baseten.co/manifesto RECENT RESEARCH - Towards infinite context windows: neural KV cache compaction https://www.baseten.co/research/towards-infinite-context-windows-neural-kv-cache-compaction/ - Dense, on-policy or both? https://www.baseten.co/research/dense-on-policy-or-both/ - Repeated kv cache for long-running agents https://www.baseten.co/research/repeated-kv-cache-for-long-running-agents/ - Distillation without the dark – replicating black-box on-policy distillation on Baseten https://www.baseten.co/research/distillation-without-the-dark/ RESPONSIBILITIES - Define and pursue a research agenda spanning both foundational and applied work, with the applied component connected to Baseten's platform and customer needs. - Design and execute rigorous experiments, frequently at meaningful scale (multi-node, trillion parameter models). - Work with customers to translate domain-specific requirements into research problems, where relevant to your agenda. - Publish at top venues (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR) and establish Baseten's research presence. - Collaborate with model performance and training infrastructure teams to bridge research findings and inference production systems. - Mentor junior researchers and shape the technical direction of the research organization as it grows. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS - Master’s or PhD research depth in machine learning, with first-author publications at top venues - Demonstrated ability to move from theory through implementation to empirical results — not exclusively theoretical or exclusively engineering work - Judgment about problem selection, the ability to distinguish research that advances a metric from research that changes how systems are built - Willingness to operate in a startup environment where the majority of research informs product decisions, with timelines measured in months rather than years - Background spanning multiple research areas (e.g., both interpretability and RL, or both systems and training methodology) - Track record of open-source contributions or community building in ML research OUR VIEW ON TALENT Many of the labs that exist today run a credentialist talent model. Concentrate the most already-legible researchers, and assume the concentration compounds. The best researchers in this field are very often not yet legible. Research engineers who have spent years inside a production stack and developed insights no PhD program teaches; PhDs working on the wrong-shaped problem at the right-shaped lab; operators who have been close to real systems long enough to see things credentialed researchers have never had to see. If you don’t have the traditional qualifications and are doing exceptional work, we’d love to chat. BENEFITS - Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity - (U.S. only) 100% coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents - Flexible PTO policy including company wide Winter Break (our offices are closed from Christmas Eve to New Year's Day!) - Paid parental leave - Fertility and family-building stipend through Carrot - (U.S. only) Company-facilitated 401(k) - Exposure to a variety of ML startups, offering unparalleled learning and networking opportunities.

Senior Research Engineer
Why AssemblyAI AssemblyAI builds the best-in-class Voice AI models powering the next generation of voice applications. Our models serve 600M+ inference calls monthly, process 1M+ hours of audio daily, and power 2 billion+ end-user experiences. The Voice AI space is at an inflection point; we’re looking for folks truly excited to join a small team and help define the future of the industry. We are one of the most capital-efficient AI companies on the planet - with under 100 people generating roughly $600K ARR per employee, we sit among the top 5 most revenue-dense teams within the fastest-growing AI companies today. That's not an accident; it's a deliberate choice to stay lean, move fast, and give every person on the team outsized ownership and impact. With thousands of customers including Granola, Fireflies, Figure AI, and CallRail, the company has real scale - processing over 2 million hours of audio daily and handling more than 1 million API calls every day. This is a rare growth-stage opportunity where the business is proven and the trajectory is steep, but the team is still small enough that your fingerprints are on everything. If you've ever felt buried under layers of bureaucracy, starved of real ownership, or frustrated watching your work disappear into a slow-moving org, AssemblyAI is built differently. The company operates as a true meritocracy, with no heavy planning or approval processes and no gatekeeping on the tools or information you need. For anyone who genuinely cares about voice AI, not as a trend to chase, but as a technology to build, this is the place where the most interesting problems at the most interesting scale are being solved by a team small enough that you'll actually know everyone's name. We’re committed to creating a space where our employees can bring their full selves to work and have equal opportunity to succeed. No matter your race, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, origin, ability, age, veteran status, if joining this mission speaks to you, we encourage you to apply! About the Role We're looking for a Senior Research Engineer to join our Research team, developing and improving the systems behind large-scale distributed training, data processing, and inference. Our goal as an organization is to solve customer problems and improve our products quickly through model development and measurement — and how fast we move depends on how quickly anyone here can run an experiment, measure it, and find out what's wrong. Raising that ceiling is the heart of this role. You'll be working inside the pipeline you're improving, not alongside it. The ideal candidate has a deep understanding of modern deep learning systems, combined with strong engineering expertise across JAX and TPUs, layer-level optimization, large-scale distributed training, streaming, low-latency and asynchronous inference, inference compilers, and advanced parallelization techniques. This is a cross-functional role. You'll work closely with our researchers, our infrastructure team, and production engineering — not as a handoff point, but as the person who learns enough of each domain to follow problems through to resolution. At times you'll train models, run evaluations, and analyze data yourself, both to deliver impact directly and to learn what's worth building to multiply the team's work. The bar is someone who understands the end-to-end impact they intend to make, measures it from the outset, and would rather find out they were wrong in a week than in a quarter. That discipline is what turns cross-functional ownership into an advantage. The role is embedded within the Research team. What You’ll Do - Raise the team's experimental velocity — make it faster to launch an experiment job, get a number back you can trust, and know what to try next. - Maintain and evolve our JAX training framework, keeping it scalable and efficient for large-scale distributed training runs on TPU. - Improve the data our models learn from: investigating quality issues, building the tooling to surface them, and turning what you find into measurable accuracy gains. - Analyze the accuracy of production models, build evaluation harnesses, and work out which improvements will matter most to customers. - Translate research prototypes into production-ready systems, refactoring and modernizing model architectures and infrastructure along the way. - Optimize production inference for speech language models, both from a serving architecture perspective and through advanced techniques such as quantization and speculative decoding. - Investigate and resolve performance bottlenecks across the stack, from low-level kernels (XLA, Pallas) to high-level system design. - Partner with researchers, infrastructure, and production engineering to trace problems to their real source and ship fixes that hold. What You’ll Need - Expert-level proficiency with JAX and TPUs , including the surrounding ecosystem (Flax, Optax, the XLA compilation pipeline). - Measurement discipline. You define what success looks like before you start, you stay skeptical of your own results until they hold up, and you treat an unexplained improvement as a problem rather than a win. - Appetite for the whole pipeline. Your core strength might be JAX and TPU performance, but when a customer issue traces back to a data problem or an evaluation blind spot, you want to go find it yourself. The people who do well here went deep in one area first, then kept expanding outward. - Strong experience optimizing inference systems for production, ideally with LLMs or speech models. - Deep understanding of distributed training at scale, modern deep learning systems, and ML infrastructure best practices. - Familiarity with modern inference optimization techniques: continuous batching, KV-cache management, sharding strategies, quantization. - Enthusiasm for refactoring and improving existing systems — you thrive on making products and code faster and better. - Strong Python skills; C++ or Rust experience for kernel-level work is a plus. - Excellent communication and a collaborative mindset — you can clearly explain complex tradeoffs and prioritize high-impact work. Bonus - Domain knowledge in Speech-to-Text: ASR architectures, audio processing, streaming inference. Pay Transparency: AssemblyAI strives to recruit and retain exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds while ensuring pay equity for our team.

Staff MLOps Engineer
Apptronik is a human-centered robotics company developing AI-powered robots to support humanity in every facet of life. Our flagship humanoid robot, Apollo, is built to collaborate thoughtfully with people, starting with critical industries such as manufacturing and logistics, with future applications in healthcare, the home, and beyond. We operate at the cutting edge of Applied AI, applying our expertise across the full robotics stack to solve some of society's most important problems. You will join a team dedicated to bringing Apollo to market at scale, tackling the complex challenges like safety, commercialization, and mass production to change the world for the better. JOB SUMMARY Apptronik is seeking a Staff MLOps Engineer to own the technical direction of our MLOps platform — the system of record for datasets, experiments, model artifacts, and serving paths that connects teleoperation data collection on one side to deployed autonomy on Apollo on the other. In this role, you will set the architecture for the platform layer above the training cluster: dataset lifecycle, experiment tracking, model registry, evaluation harnesses, and the serving / packaging path that delivers trained policies to robots in the field. You will lead by influence across MLOps, Autonomy, Data Platform, and TeleOp — establishing the standards, contracts, and tooling that turn one-off research code into a repeatable, auditable pipeline from data to deployed model. This is a hands-on technical leadership role, not a management position; you will be a primary contributor while mentoring the engineers around you, and partnering closely with the Training Infrastructure engineer who owns the cluster layer beneath the platform. ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Platform Architecture & Ownership - Technical Direction: Own the technical direction for the MLOps platform — define subsystem interfaces, drive architecture decisions, and establish engineering standards for how datasets, experiments, and models move through Apptronik's systems. - Cross-Team Authority: Serve as the primary technical point of contact for Autonomy, Data Platform, and TeleOp on all matters of model lifecycle and platform contracts. Dataset Lifecycle & Versioning - Versioning & Lineage: Design and operate the dataset layer end-to-end — versioning, lineage, splits, and labeling-integration handoff. - Reproducibility: Ensure every trained model can be traced back to the exact data and code that produced it. Model Registry & Artifact Management - Registry: Build and operate a first-class model registry — versioned artifacts, metadata, evaluation results, lineage, and approval workflows. - Promotion Path: Define the promotion path from "trained" to "qualified" to "deployed to robot." Evaluation & Qualification Harnesses - Automated Evaluation: Define the offline benchmarks, simulation rollouts, and policy-gating harnesses that any model must pass before reaching Apollo. - Metrics Framework: Develop the metrics framework that the autonomy team trusts to gate releases. Serving, Packaging & Deployment to Robot - On-Robot Path: Own the path from registered model to running inference on Apollo — packaging (ONNX, TensorRT, torch.compile), versioning on-robot, rollback, and observability of deployed policy behavior. - Telemetry Seam: Coordinate with Connect and Data Platform on the deploy-and-telemetry seam back from the fleet. Mentorship & Cross-Functional Leadership - Mentorship: Mentor mid-level and senior engineers on the MLOps team through code review, design review, and direct collaboration. - Influence: Partner with the Training Infrastructure engineer on the cluster/platform contract, and influence research workflows across Autonomy to standardize on the platform's primitives. SKILLS AND REQUIREMENTS - Deep proficiency in Python and at least one systems-level language (Go, Rust, or C++), with demonstrated ability to make and defend architectural tradeoffs in production ML platforms - Proven experience owning and delivering an MLOps platform end-to-end — dataset lifecycle, experiment tracking, model registry, evaluation, and serving — at a company that ships models to production - Expertise across the model lifecycle: dataset versioning (DVC, LakeFS, Delta, or equivalent), experiment tracking (MLflow, W&B, Determined), model registry, and policy serving - Strong background designing service-oriented systems on Kubernetes; comfortable with the contract between platform APIs and underlying compute infrastructure - Experience defining evaluation and qualification frameworks for ML models where the cost of a regression is high (robotics, safety-critical, or production-customer-facing) - Experience leading technical projects end-to-end: architecture, implementation, validation, and iteration - Demonstrated ability to lead by influence across teams — setting standards that other engineers adopt voluntarily, and mentoring engineers around you - Proficiency with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure), Docker, Git, and modern CI/CD workflows EDUCATION and/or EXPERIENCE - Master's degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related technical field preferred; Bachelor's considered with exceptional experience. - 8+ years of professional software engineering experience in ML platforms or related infrastructure, OR 4+ years of direct, hands-on experience owning an MLOps platform that shipped models to production. Preferred Qualifications: - Experience deploying ML models to edge or embedded targets (on-device inference, ONNX Runtime, TensorRT, robot fleets) - Experience with RL training and evaluation infrastructure for embodied agents (rollout workers, replay buffers, sim-eval harnesses) - Familiarity with humanoid robotics, dexterous manipulation, or teleoperation data domains - Experience with simulation-in-the-loop evaluation (IsaacSim, MuJoCo, or equivalent) - Familiarity with policy gating, shadow deployments, or staged rollout strategies for autonomy - Open-source contributions to MLOps platform tooling (MLflow, BentoML, KServe, Ray Serve, etc.) PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS - Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer - Must be able to lift 15 pounds at times - Vision to read printed materials and a computer screen - Hearing and speech to communicate *This is a direct hire.

Senior Software Engineer, ML Infrastructure
Apptronik is a human-centered robotics company developing AI-powered robots to support humanity in every facet of life. Our flagship humanoid robot, Apollo, is built to collaborate thoughtfully with people, starting with critical industries such as manufacturing and logistics, with future applications in healthcare, the home, and beyond. We operate at the cutting edge of Applied AI, applying our expertise across the full robotics stack to solve some of society's most important problems. You will join a team dedicated to bringing Apollo to market at scale, tackling the complex challenges like safety, commercialization, and mass production to change the world for the better. JOB SUMMARY Apptronik is building Apollo, a general-purpose humanoid robot, and the physical AI that drives it. Scale is the name of the game: every robot and teleoperator we field produces synchronized video, proprioceptive, tactile, and force-torque streams, and the fleet's output grows with every deployment. Turning that volume of data into shipped autonomy — routinely, at multi-terabyte scale — is what this role is about. We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer, ML Infrastructure to build that platform: the self-serve services and pipelines that carry data from collection through curation, training, and evaluation to a qualified model running on real hardware. Much of it is being created ground-up for the long term — humanoid robotics has few off-the-shelf answers — so the team builds first-party platform services alongside the open-source and commercial tooling we adopt where it genuinely fits. This is a hands-on role on a small team whose platform is depended on daily by researchers and engineers across MLOps, Autonomy, Data Platform, and TeleOp. ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES You will build the ML platform — the APIs, workers, and control planes that let researchers and robot teams move data and models through the system in a self-serve manner, with the testing and observability that being a dependency implies. The platform's responsibilities include: - Data Curation & Annotation: Turn raw robot and simulation data into training-ready datasets — selection and filtering of manipulation episodes with synchronized sensor streams; annotation workflows that combine automatic labeling with human-in-the-loop review at throughput; and dataset versioning and lineage strong enough that any model traces back to the exact data that produced it. - Data Pipelines at Scale: Make multi-terabyte dataset operations routine — transformation and assembly, coverage and quality statistics that tell us a training set is good before we spend a cluster-week on it, and read paths that keep GPUs fed. - Simulation & Evaluation: Build the rollout harnesses that evaluate policies in simulation on our GPU cluster; the benchmarks and metrics captured consistently across simulation, real-robot, and teleoperation sources; and the qualification gates a model must pass before it reaches Apollo — automatic, not manual review. - Model Promotion: Build the model store — versioning, metadata, attached evaluation results, lineage — and the promotion path from trained to qualified to deployed on robot, including packaging (ONNX, TensorRT) in partnership with Autonomy. - Developer Experience: Provide the tooling researchers use daily — experiment tracking, training job submission, sweeps, and reproducible container environments. Reduce time from idea to running training job; win adoption by being the fastest path, not by mandate. Alongside the technical work, you will partner with Autonomy, Data Platform, and TeleOp on dataset and model lifecycle contracts, contribute to the technical direction of these layers, and mentor the engineers around you through code and design review. SKILLS AND REQUIREMENTS No single person will have depth in everything below. We are looking for someone who has built platform services in production at scale with real depth in at least one of three areas — large-scale data pipelines , annotation and labeling , or evaluation and simulation — plus solid cloud and Python across the board: - A builder at scale: a track record of designing and shipping production systems and services that other teams depend on daily. - Deep hands-on experience with large-scale data pipelines for ML: multi-terabyte transformation and dataset assembly of multimodal sensor data — video and image streams, time-synchronized robot telemetry, the kind of data that trains vision-language-action and computer-vision models — with columnar and time-series formats (Parquet, Arrow), dataset versioning and lineage (lakeFS, DVC, Iceberg, or equivalent), and object storage (S3, MinIO). - Experience with ML annotation and labeling at scale: automatic annotation of data combined with human-in-the-loop workflows — the tooling, quality control, and throughput management. - Experience building large-scale evaluation or simulation harnesses: many parallel jobs on GPU infrastructure, aggregated into decision-grade results. - Strong Python and general software engineering ability (testing, API design, code review), plus cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, Docker, and modern CI/CD. EDUCATION and/or EXPERIENCE - 5+ years of professional software engineering experience in ML platforms, data infrastructure, or related fields, OR 3+ years of direct, hands-on experience owning the data and evaluation infrastructure behind models shipped to production. - Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience. Bonus Qualifications: - Robotics data formats and fleet-scale telemetry (MCAP, ROS, LeRobot, or equivalent). - Simulation-in-the-loop evaluation with Isaac Sim, IsaacLab, MuJoCo, or equivalent. - Reinforcement or imitation learning infrastructure for embodied agents (rollout workers, sim-eval harnesses). - Deploying ML models to edge targets (ONNX Runtime, TensorRT, robot fleets). PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS - Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer - Must be able to lift 15 pounds at times - Vision to read printed materials and a computer screen - Hearing and speech to communicate *This is a direct hire.

Research, Safety
ABOUT THINKING MACHINES The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it. ABOUT THE ROLE As a safety researcher, you'll work toward ensuring our models are safe and trustworthy. The role sits at the intersection of research and hands-on technical work. A central question is how models come to handle harmful or dual-use requests: what they learn from data, how training shapes where they refuse and where they engage, and what makes those boundaries reliable. You'll explore the science behind these behaviors and design experiments that inform how our models are trained and evaluated. WHAT YOU’LL DO We are hiring across the entire development stack — from pre-training data curation to safety-focused fine-tuning, evaluations, and red-teaming. During project selection we’ll take into account your interests and experience alongside organizational needs. This flexible approach allows us to match talented safety researchers with the teams where they'll have the greatest impact and growth potential. Here are example areas you may contribute to depending on your area of expertise and interest: - Build data filtering pipelines and quality classifiers to shape what models learn from pre-training corpora, and study how those early interventions affect downstream safety behavior. - Apply post-training techniques, including RL from human and AI feedback and policy-based reasoning approaches, to shape how models handle harmful, sensitive, and dual-use requests. - Design, build, and maintain safety evaluations, with particular focus on measuring model behavior on long-horizon and agentic tasks. - Generate and curate synthetic data to train and evaluate models on refusal boundaries and safety-relevant behaviors. - Red-team our models and products to surface failure modes, jailbreaks, and emergent risks before deployment, and design mitigations for what you find. SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS Required qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Physics, Mathematics, or a related discipline with strong theoretical and empirical grounding. - Background in AI safety research, with hands-on experience in at least one area of safety, such as: RLHF/RLAIF, alignment and preference modeling, deliberative alignment, safety evaluations, or red-teaming. - Proficiency in Python and familiarity with deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX). Comfort debugging distributed training and writing code that scales. - Clarity in communication, an ability to explain complex technical concepts in writing. Preferred qualifications — we encourage you to apply if you meet some but not all of these: - Experience building evaluations for long-horizon, multi-step, or agentic tasks. - Experience generating synthetic data at scale for training or evaluation. - Experience with modern red-teaming/jailbreaking techniques. - Research contributions in AI safety — publications, open-source evaluations, or public red-teaming work. - Familiarity with the AI safety literature and current open problems (e.g., scalable oversight, reward hacking, jailbreak robustness). - PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Physics, Mathematics, or a related discipline with strong theoretical and empirical grounding; or, equivalent industry research experience. LOGISTICS - Location: This role is based in San Francisco, California. - Compensation: Depending on background, skills and experience, the expected annual salary range for this position is $350,000 - $475,000 USD. - Visa sponsorship: We sponsor visas. While we can't guarantee success for every candidate or role, if you're the right fit, we're committed to working through the visa process together. - Benefits: Thinking Machines offers generous health, dental, and vision benefits, unlimited PTO, paid parental leave, and relocation support as needed. As set forth in Thinking Machines' Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.
Research, RL Scaling
ABOUT THINKING MACHINES The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it. ABOUT THE ROLE Our team scales reinforcement learning for frontier models. Progress in RL is increasingly set by how well it scales: more rollouts, larger models, and training loops that keep large fleets of accelerators doing useful work. We are particularly interested in people working on high-training-compute, long-horizon RL. We believe the biggest gains come from designing the training recipe and the infrastructure together rather than separately, and we are hiring a researcher who wants to own that boundary. A center of gravity for this role is asynchronous RL. Decoupling generation from training changes both the systems design and the learning problem, and doing it well requires a deep understanding of async RL algorithms, design choices, and trade-offs on both the ML and the systems sides. We expect much of the headroom in RL scaling to come from here. Because generation dominates the cost of RL at scale, good knowledge of inference systems, low-precision numerics, and quantization is recommended: you should be able to reason quantitatively about rollout throughput and cost (batching, KV cache, MoE serving, speculative decoding) and about how inference constraints shape training design. This is a research role with full-stack ownership, from the algorithms to the parallelism plan to the health of the run. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Co-design the RL recipe and the systems that run it: make recipe-level choices jointly with systems-level ones and validate them at frontier scale. - Advance asynchronous RL algorithms. - Improve the efficiency of rollout generation and its integration with training, treating inference as a first-class part of the RL loop. - Run frontier-scale RL end to end: bring up new models and training setups, keep large runs stable and healthy. - Jointly optimize the compute and training efficiency of RL: accelerator utilization, memory, communication, and low-precision numerics. - Do careful empirical science: ablations and scaling studies backed by instrumentation you can trust, written up clearly. SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS Minimum qualifications: - Proficiency in Python and familiarity with at least one deep learning framework (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX). Comfortable with debugging distributed training and writing code that scales. - Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Physics, Mathematics, or a related discipline with strong theoretical and empirical grounding. - Clarity in communication, an ability to explain complex technical concepts in writing. - Strong research judgment: clean ablations, honest baselines, and clear technical writing. Preferred qualifications — we encourage you to apply if you meet some but not all of these: - PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Physics, Mathematics, or a related discipline with strong theoretical and empirical grounding; or, equivalent industry research experience. - Strong grounding in RL for large language models, such as modern policy optimization methods and their behavior at scale. - Deep understanding of asynchronous RL: the algorithms, design choices, and trade-offs, on both the ML and the systems sides. - Experience training large models across many accelerators, with comfort inside the distributed stack (parallelism strategies, memory, communication). - Good working knowledge of inference systems: able to reason quantitatively about rollout generation throughput and cost. - Experience building or operating decoupled generation/training RL systems at scale. - Experience with RL on verifiable and agentic tasks, including multi-turn environments. - Experience with RL training stability techniques for large runs. - Familiarity with low-precision training and inference: numerics, quantization, and their implications for RL. - Hands-on work with LLM serving stacks (e.g., SGLang, vLLM, TokenSpeed, or custom engines). - Experience with scaling studies for large models. - Contributions to open-source training or inference frameworks. LOGISTICS - Location: This role is based in San Francisco, California. - Compensation: Depending on background, skills and experience, the expected annual salary range for this position is $350,000 - $475,000 USD. - Visa sponsorship: We sponsor visas. While we can't guarantee success for every candidate or role, if you're the right fit, we're committed to working through the visa process together. - Benefits: Thinking Machines offers generous health, dental, and vision benefits, unlimited PTO, paid parental leave, and relocation support as needed.

We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it. ABOUT THE ROLE The role of post-training researchers sits at the core of our roadmap. This is the critical bridge between raw model intelligence and a system that is actually useful, safe, and collaborative for humans. This role blends fundamental research and practical engineering, as we do not distinguish between the two roles internally. You will be expected to write high-performance code and read technical reports. It’s an excellent fit for someone who enjoys both deep theoretical exploration and hands-on experimentation, and who wants to shape the foundations of how AI learns.

You may also find that we put up postings for singular roles for separate, project or team specific needs. In those cases, you're welcome to apply directly in addition to an evergreen role. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Develop and tune the recipe: iterate on post-training recipes, consisting of a collection of datasets, training stages, and hyperparameters. Measure how recipe choices affect various metrics. - Iterate on evals: post-training involves a never-ending loop of defining a set of evaluations, optimizing them, and then realizing your existing evals don’t capture what matters. You’ll be responsible for both making numbers go up, and making sure the numbers are meaningful. - Debug and understand: while tuning the details of a training configuration, we often observe results that don’t quite make sense. You’ll be responsible for both getting things to work, and developing a deeper understanding, which we can bring to the next problem. - Scale and explore: post-training will involve a combination of scaling the existing methodologies and developing new ones. We’ll want to both measure how performance metrics scale with dataset size, and explore using a completely different kind of training dataset. - Publish and present research that moves the entire community forward.
