About the Role

We are looking for research engineers to build the research pipeline connecting real AI usage to what models learn next.

Responsibilities

  • Create new frontier training environments and task formats from production agent traces.
  • Analyze agent failures and run experiments to measure training value, working directly with frontier researchers on new benchmarks and task formats.
  • Build core infrastructure for automated creation, quality control, and evaluation of training environments at scale.

Requirements

  • Published agent benchmarks or experience scaling synthetic data or post-training pipelines.
  • Strong engineering ability: you can turn a research idea into a working system and produce results others can reproduce.
  • Good experimental judgment: you can distinguish model failures from problems in the data, environment, or evaluation.

Location

  • San Francisco

Work Type

  • In person, five days per week
  • Full time

Salary/Compensations

  • $150,000–$1,000,000
