Responsibilities
- Own the overall algorithm infrastructure roadmap for Creator Agent.
- Lead architectural development of agent orchestration, agentic search, hierarchical memory, and algorithm tuning infrastructure.
- Build capabilities supporting Agent RL, Memory RL, SFT, training, evaluation, and frontier optimization directions.
- Evaluate and introduce test-time optimization, tool-use optimization, multi-agent collaboration, prompt and workflow optimization, agent distillation, and agent evaluation and reward modeling.
- Track frontier agent architectures from OpenAI, Anthropic, and other organizations and adapt them to creator-commerce use cases.
- Partner with algorithm, product, and engineering teams to accelerate algorithm iteration and deliver complex projects.
- Translate creator B2B business insights into algorithm infrastructure decisions.
Requirements
- Deep understanding of agent technical stacks and frontier agent practices such as OpenAI SDK and Claude Code.
- Hands-on experience with LangGraph or equivalent frameworks for production-grade, domain-customized agents.
- Systematic understanding of Agent RL, hierarchical memory, Memory RL, and SFT, with hands-on practice or deep familiarity in at least two to three frontier agent optimization directions.
- Familiarity with agentic search design and implementation and the distinction between traditional retrieval and agent-driven retrieval.
- Deep understanding of B2B or ToB businesses, including workflows, ROI, explainability, and controllability considerations.
- Strong technical judgment, forward-looking perspective, and cross-team collaboration skills.
- Preferred: end-to-end experience building LLM-powered agent algorithm infrastructure from 0 to 1.
- Preferred: hands-on experience with RL, RLHF, DPO, GRPO, and other LLM alignment techniques.
- Preferred: exploration or published work in test-time scaling, process reward models, or agent self-improvement.
- Preferred: practical experience with DSPy, TextGrad, or similar automated prompt and workflow optimization.
- Preferred: experience with content-generation algorithm infrastructure, B2B/SaaS/CRM businesses, or international, multilingual, and multi-region products.
