Job Specifications

Research Scientist

Location: SF Bay Area (On-site)

We’re representing a cutting-edge AI organization building autonomous systems that can reason, plan, and interact with the physical world. This is a chance to join a small, elite research team pushing the frontier of LLM-driven autonomy.

The Opportunity

You’ll lead research that powers intelligent agents capable of long-horizon reasoning, structured tool-use, and real-world decision-making. This is deep ML research with immediate, tangible impact.

What You’ll Work On

Building LLM reasoning and planning frameworks
Designing structured tool-use, memory, reflection, and multi-step workflows
Developing safe, robust policies for autonomous systems
Training and evaluating models across real engineering and scientific tasks
Collaborating with systems, simulation, and infrastructure experts

What We’re Looking For

Strong research background in LLMs, reasoning, or agents
Experience with SFT, RLHF/DPO, verifier-guided RL, or related training techniques
Ability to design and evaluate long-horizon behaviors
Comfort working in a fast, interdisciplinary R&D environment

Why Join

Build models that control real physical-world systems, NOT just simulations
Massive scope for autonomy, creativity, and impact
Competitive compensation + meaningful ownership
