About the Role

As a Research Scientist at DeepMind, you will join a team focused on advancing fundamental research and technology in Artificial Intelligence, specifically in the domains of Memory, Reasoning, and Continual Learning. This role offers the opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking research and publish in top venues, pushing the boundaries of AI development to solve complex global challenges and accelerate high-quality product innovation.

Responsibilities

  • Initiate and lead novel research directions, applying insights from machine learning and related fields to advance long-context attention mechanisms, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), continual learning architectures, and multi-step reasoning frameworks.
  • Design and execute end-to-end experiments, proposing and testing hypotheses to better align model-based agents, mitigate catastrophic forgetting, and improve sample efficiency in non-stationary environments.
  • Develop evaluations and benchmarks that stress-test long-horizon memory, out-of-distribution generalization, and complex planning capabilities, including in-depth search debugging of failure modes.
  • Build and improve infrastructure for high-capacity context windows, dynamic memory structures, and continuous training pipelines in close collaboration with development teams.
  • Communicate research findings clearly through plots, writeups, and paper-ready narratives, while contributing to a team culture of first-principles thinking, high standards, and constructive feedback.

Requirements

  • PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Mathematics, Cognitive Science, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2 years of experience in artificial intelligence research, including publications in conferences or journals (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR).
  • Experience with Deep Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Natural Language Processing, or architectures for Continual/Lifelong Learning.
  • Experience in Python and deep learning framework (e.g., JAX, TensorFlow, PyTorch).
  • Experience in algorithms design, running experiments, and analyzing results.
  • Postdoctoral or equivalent industry research experience focusing on large language models, autonomous agents, or long-context memory systems.
  • Experience designing novel benchmarks or evaluation frameworks for complex planning and reasoning capabilities.
  • Knowledge of the interdisciplinary intersection between machine learning and neurobiology or computational neuroscience.
  • Ability to contribute to open-source ML software or experience in collaborating with cross-functional teams.
  • Familiarity with distributed training techniques and building infrastructure for high-capacity context windows.
