San Francisco · On-site · Full-time · Posted Oct 12, 2026
- Experience
- 5+ years of hands-on research experience in industry or academia.
- Education
- PhD in ML, statistics, CS, or an adjacent field is preferred; no required education stated.
About the job
Research and build multi-agent systems that conduct automated machine learning research and discovery, from designing methods and evaluations to shipping promising approaches into production.
What you'll do
- Improve agent planning, task decomposition, tool use, context management, and failure recovery; develop multi-agent coordination methods.
- Build evaluation frameworks and run rigorous experiments on open-ended agent capabilities.
- Co-design agent architectures with engineering teammates, ship research into production, and share findings to help shape team direction.
What they ask for
- Strong ML research track record focused on agents, RL, LLMs, planning, tool use, or multi-agent systems.
- 5+ years of hands-on research experience in industry or academia.
- Experience designing and running experiments end-to-end at scale and building evaluation frameworks for capabilities that are not easily benchmarked.
- Published research at NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, COLM, RLC, or comparable venues.
Nice to have
- PhD in ML, statistics, CS, or an adjacent field.
- Research or contributions involving agentic systems, tool use, long-horizon planning, multi-agent coordination, self-improvement, reasoning methods, agentic fine-tuning, or open-source agentic ML.
Tools
