  • Read, reproduce, and extend cutting-edge research papers.
  • Contribute to internal research notes, benchmarks, and open-source efforts.

Requirements

  • Strong background in machine learning fundamentals and deep learning.
  • Hands-on experience implementing model architectures from scratch.
  • Solid understanding of attention mechanisms, RNNs, and hybrid architectures.
  • Comfortable working in PyTorch or JAX.
  • Ability to move fluidly between theory, experimentation, and engineering.
  • Clear communicator who can explain architectural trade-offs.

Benefits

  • Work on core model architecture, not just fine-tuning.
  • Direct influence on the technical direction of a Series-A company.
  • Small, high-caliber team with fast feedback loops.
  • Opportunity to ship research into production.
  • Competitive compensation + meaningful equity.
