About the role
- This is a research role which is focused on real world impact.
- A revolution is underway where the cost of generating synthetic data is now low enough that we can treat the data space as malleable and something which can be optimized.
- We can steer synthetic data towards desirable and make previously invisible worlds with limited data coverage more visible.
Responsibilities
- Innovation: innovate on our product to co-design algorithms that react real-time to product signal and feedback. Design new ways of giving feedback that drive better algorithms.
- Cross-Stack Optimization: collaborate across software, hardware, and algorithmic domains to achieve system-wide efficiency gains
- Innovation: innovate on our product to co-design algorithms that react real-time to product signal and feedback.
- Design new ways of giving feedback that drive better algorithms.
- We co-design serving, algorithms, and interface as one system to maximize efficiency and enable real-time adaptation.
- The most intelligent system will increasingly be defined by building an algorithm that can interact with the world.
- We're building intelligence that evolves alongside you, so we encourage you to keep expanding your horizons.
Requirements
- A PhD or equivalent research experience in a computer science field
- 4-5+ years of industry experience
- Deep expertise in at least one area: model efficiency, real time alignment or algorithmic optimization
- Knowledge of model optimization techniques (RLHF, finetuning)
- Experience in an industry lab with computing at scale
- Systems thinking ability to understand and optimize across the full ML stack
- Strong programming skills in Python. Experience with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, JAX, TensorFlow)
- Above all, we're looking for great teammates who make work feel lighter and aren't afraid to go out on a limb with bold ideas. You don't need to be perfect, but you do need to be adaptable. We encourage you to apply, even if you don't check every box.
Compensation
- Adaption Passport: Annual travel stipend to explore a country you've never visited.
Benefits
- Flexible work: In-person collaboration in the Bay Area, a distributed global-first team, and team offsites.
- Adaption Passport: Annual travel stipend to explore a country you've never visited.
- Lunch Stipend: Weekly meal allowance for take-out or grocery delivery.
- Well-Being: Comprehensive medical benefits and generous paid time off.
Company info
- Most AI is frozen in place - it doesn't adapt to the world.
- We think that's backwards.
- Our mandate is to build efficient intelligence that evolves in real-time.
- Our vision is AI systems that are flexible, personalized, and accessible to everyone.
- We believe efficiency is what makes this possible - it's how we expand access and ensure innovation benefits the many, not the few.
- We believe in talent density: bringing together the best and most driven individuals to push the boundaries of continual adaptation.
- We're looking for builders and creative thinkers ready to shape the next era of intelligence.
