Responsibilities

  • Design and run experiments to improve scaling of compute on context.
  • Own end-to-end improvements to the post-training stack, including RL and data pipelines.
  • Build evals and environments to identify model failures and turn them into training data.
  • Collaborate with product teams to translate user needs into model improvements.
  • Work on early-training and alignment interventions to shape agent behavior.
  • Decide on integrations and capabilities for major model runs.
  • Enhance machinery for large-scale training and launch.

  • Hands-on experience with LLMs, RL, and production ML systems.
  • Ability to tackle open-ended problems with research taste and engineering execution.
  • Focus on product impact and model behavior beyond just benchmarks.
  • Capability to move from vague problems to concrete experiments.
  • Comfortable working across various domains and communicating clearly.
  • Willingness to build systems and processes as needed.
