Research Engineer, Frontier Evals & Environments
About the team The Agent Post-Training team creates the frontier agents OpenAI ships to the world. We are training the models behind our agents in Codex, ChatGPT, the API, and other frontier products: persistent, proactive intelligence that can operate computers, collaborate with people and other agents, and expand what people and organizations can imagine, attempt, and achieve. We define what the next generation of agents should be able to do, build the training signal that teaches those abilities, and run the experiments that make them real. Our work spans coding, tool use, computer use, multi-agent coordination, long-horizon execution, factuality, instruction following, calibrated reasoning, and taste. Our team is where new model capabilities get made. We build the data, environments, graders, training methods, and feedback loops that shape what OpenAI's next agents can do, then carry those capabilities through major training runs and into the products people use. About the Role As a researcher working on Frontier Evals & Environments, you will help build north star model environments to drive progress towards safe AGI/ASI. Your work will directly guide the research programs of the most ambitious training runs happening at OpenAI. Some prior open-sourced evaluations built by researchers in this role include GDPval , SWE-bench Verified , MLE-bench , PaperBench , and SWE-Lancer . If you are interested in feeling firsthand the fast progress of our models, and steering them towards good outcomes, this is the role for you. You will work with researchers, engineers, product teams, infrastructure teams, and safety/alignment partners to decide what should go into major model runs, measure whether it worked, and ship improvements into products used by real people. This is a high-agency role for people who want their work to land directly in frontier models. In this role, you'll: - Create ambitious RL environments to push our models to their limits, and measure frontier model capabilities, skills, and behaviors - Develop new methodologies for automatically exploring the behavior of these models - Dive deep into the science of measurement, including understanding scalability, reliability, and variance of our evaluation methodology - Help steer training for our largest training runs, and see the future first - Design scalable systems and processes to support continuous evaluation - Build self-improvement loops to automate model understanding You might thrive in this role if you - Have strong technical fundamentals in machine learning, software engineering, systems, statistics, or a related field, and can learn quickly across the parts you have not worked in before. - Have hands-on experience with LLMs, RL, RLHF/RLAIF, post-training, evals, graders, synthetic data, model training, coding agents, tool-using agents, or production ML systems. - Are excited by open-ended problems where the path is unclear, the signal is noisy, and the right answer requires both research taste and engineering execution. - Care about product impact and model behavior, not just benchmark movement. You have opinions about what makes an agent useful, reliable, honest, tasteful, and easy to work with. - Can move from a vague behavioral problem to a concrete experiment: define the hypothesis, build the pipeline, run the model, analyze the result, and decide what to do next. - Are comfortable working across research, product, infrastructure, data, evals, and safety boundaries, and can communicate clearly with each group. - Like building load-bearing systems and processes when that is what the team needs, even if the work is not glamorous. - Want to train and ship the models that make agents genuinely useful for developers, enterprises, researchers, and everyday users.

Applied AI Engineer, Agents & Automations
Who are we? Cohere is the leading security-first enterprise AI company. We build cutting-edge foundation AI models and end-to-end products that are designed to solve real-world business problems. We’re training and deploying frontier models for enterprises who are building AI systems. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI and we are looking for folks that want to be part of that. We obsess over what we build. Each one of us is responsible for contributing to increasing the capabilities of our models and the value they drive for our customers. Cohere is a team of researchers, engineers, designers, and more, who are all passionate about their craft. We are a global technology company headquartered in Toronto with key offices in London, New York City, San Francisco, Montreal, Paris, Berlin and Seoul. Join us! Why this role? North is Cohere's cutting-edge AI workspace platform, designed to revolutionize the way enterprises utilize AI. It offers a secure and customizable environment, allowing companies to deploy AI while maintaining control over sensitive data. North integrates seamlessly with existing workflows, providing a trusted platform that connects AI agents with workplace tools and applications. Some of our most important work is making the agents and AI-powered experiences inside North genuinely useful in the workflows customers rely on every day. These systems become valuable when users can build with them, steer them, inspect their work, recover from errors, and trust them to complete messy tasks inside real enterprise environments. This role is about making those AI experiences reliable, useful, and production-ready. You’ll work with product engineering, modelling and design to turn model capability into reliable, user-facing systems: agent builders, eval frameworks, proactive intelligence, and new interfaces for collaborating with AI. Sometimes that means shipping a new product surface, sometimes a better eval or feedback loop, sometimes prompt and context experiments, and sometimes redesigning the workflow so the model is being asked to do the right thing. As an Applied AI Engineer, Agents & Automations, you will: - Build AI-powered product experiences that help users create, configure, evaluate, and improve workflows across North. - Design and ship new interfaces for interacting with models, including workflow builders, proactive assistants, review flows, and other human-AI collaboration patterns. - Build eval, observability, and feedback systems that measure whether AI experiences succeed in real enterprise workflows. - Improve AI reliability through product design, prompting, context construction, tool-use strategies, instrumentation, and feedback loops. - Turn production failures, user feedback, and real-task data into better product behavior, stronger eval suites, regression tests, and signals for modelling. - Work closely with modelling, product, design, customer teams, and domain experts to define what “good” means for specific workflows and ship measurable improvements. - Help decide when a workflow needs a more constrained product experience, a better model interface, a stronger eval, or a deeper modelling investment. Example problems you might work on include helping users build AI automations from natural language, creating evals for multi-step agent workflows, adding proactive intelligence inside the product, or creating interfaces that make agent behavior easier to inspect, steer, and trust. You may be a good fit if: - You have shipped LLM-powered, agent-powered, or AI-assisted product experiences into production, and improved them based on real-world feedback. - You are a strong software engineer who enjoys working across backend systems, user-facing product, data, evals, and model behavior. - You think in terms of user outcomes and system behavior, not just model metrics. - You have strong product taste and care about how the interface, workflow, and model work together to help users succeed. - You enjoy debugging messy real-world failures and turning what you learn from production, user testing, and evals into durable improvements. - You enjoy owning ambiguous problems end-to-end and working across system boundaries to ship something genuinely useful. Full-Time Employees at Cohere enjoy these Perks: - A weekly lunch stipend of $75/£75 or equivalent in your local currency for lunch. - Full health and dental benefits, including a separate budget for mental health. - RRSP matching, 401K, Pension Scheme. - 100% Parental Leave top-up for up to 6 months, for either parent. - Annual enrichment benefits: Arts & culture, fitness/wellness, quality time, and a workspace improvement credit. Education & learning stipend for conferences, courses, and coaching. - 6 weeks of paid vacation (30 working days!) - Budget for traveling to other offices if you are remote, plus an annual company offsite.
