Build the 3D perception that gives AI agents real spatial intelligence.

How do AI systems truly see and reason about 3D geometry? This Applied Scientist role puts you at the centre of that challenge — developing models that bridge the physical world and intelligent reasoning systems.

You’ll join a well-funded startup building AI agents for advanced design and engineering workflows — across manufacturing, aerospace, and medtech. Your work will enable agents to understand CAD data, meshes, and point clouds deeply enough to plan, analyse, and make autonomous decisions.

This is a rare opportunity to establish the 3D foundation within the research team. You’ll define evaluation strategies, model objectives, and technical direction — building models that become the perception backbone for intelligent agents.

What you’ll do:
• Develop models that learn transferable 3D representations across CAD, mesh, and point cloud data
• Handle messy, lossy, real-world data — not just clean synthetic geometry
• Scale training across segmentation, classification, correspondence, and eventually generation
• Design robust evaluation pipelines for continuous performance monitoring
• Work toward a unified 3D foundation model supporting both discriminative and generative tasks

You’ll bring:
• Deep expertise in 3D computer vision (PhD or equivalent experience)
• Strong knowledge of modern 3D architectures (PointNet++, MeshCNN, Gaussian Splatting, Diffusion, VLMs)
• Proven ability training large-scale models in PyTorch
• Strong applied research instincts — turning papers into working systems
• Experience with multimodal or vision-language models

Bonus points:
• Background with CAD data or industrial design workflows
• Experience in robotics, autonomous driving, or AR/VR 3D perception
• Familiarity with SLAM, pose estimation, or differentiable rendering

You’ll join a small, research-driven team with full autonomy and major compute access — free to explore foundational methods while delivering practical impact.

Compensation & location:
• Base salary: $200K–$300K (negotiable by level)
• Up to 20% bonus + stock
• Full medical, dental, and vision coverage
• 401k (3% match) and 20+ vacation days

Based in the SF Bay Area (currently remote, moving hybrid soon).
Applicants must hold valid US work authorisation (US Citizen or Green Card).

Want to build the large-scale RL environments frontier labs use to train agents that can truly reason and act?

This team are creating complex reinforcement learning environments — simulations where advanced agents learn to plan, adapt, and solve multi-step problems that stretch beyond standard benchmarks. The focus isn’t on training the models themselves, but on building the worlds that make meaningful learning and evaluation possible — the foundation for more capable, aligned systems.

You’ll work end-to-end across environment design, reward dynamics, and scalable simulation — developing the feedback loops that define what “good” looks like for intelligent behaviour. It’s open-ended, research-driven work where the task definition, data, and reward structure are often the hardest and most important problems to solve.

You’ll collaborate closely with researchers tackling unsolved challenges in reinforcement learning and agent behaviour, shaping experiments, scaling infrastructure, and refining how agents learn in the loop.

It suits someone with strong ML and RL experience, deep intuition for agent dynamics, and the curiosity to explore problems that don’t come with clear instructions.

On-site in San Francisco. Compensation up to $300 K base (negotiable, depending on experience) plus equity.

If you want to help build the environments that teach the next generation of AI systems how to think, act, and adapt — we’d love to hear from you.

This means hands-on work testing APIs and open-source models, followed by developing custom systems for multi-agent group conversations and social interactions.

You'll shape the technical direction, balance short-term delivery with long-term innovation, and drive individual research initiatives while collaborating on broader team objectives.

Your focus

• Define and execute the ASR roadmap from evaluation through production deployment
• Build and train models that handle natural conversation dynamics
• Develop evaluation systems to measure accuracy, speed, and reliability
• Define data requirements and create pipelines for ASR training
• Work from low-level performance optimizations to high-level architecture decisions

What you'll bring

• Proven track record building and deploying ASR systems at scale
• Strong familiarity with SOTA ASR models and architectures (Whisper, Conformer, etc.)
• Understanding of data quality assessment for speech systems

Nice to have

• Experience leading technical initiatives or ML teams

How do you make a large language model genuinely human-centred, capable of reasoning, empathy, and nuance rather than just pattern-matching?

This team is built to answer that question. They’re a small, focused group of researchers and engineers working on the post-training challenges that matter most: RLHF, RLAIF, continual learning, multilingual behaviour, and evaluation frameworks designed for natural, reliable interaction.

You’ll work alongside a team from NVIDIA, Meta, Microsoft, Apple, and Stanford, in an environment that combines academic rigour with production-level delivery. Backed by over $400 million in funding, they have the freedom, compute, and scale to run experiments that push beyond the limits of standard alignment research.

This is a role where your work moves directly into deployed products. The team’s models are live, meaning every insight you develop, every method you refine, and every experiment you run has immediate, measurable impact on how large-scale conversational systems behave.

What you’ll work on

• Developing post-training methods that improve alignment, reasoning, and reliability

• Advancing instruction-tuning, RLHF/RLAIF, and preference-learning pipelines for deployed systems

• Designing evaluation frameworks that measure human-centred behaviour, not just accuracy

• Exploring continual learning and multilingual generalisation for long-lived models

• Publishing and collaborating on research that informs real-world deployment

Who this role suits

• Researchers or recent PhDs with experience in LLM post-training, alignment, or optimisation

• A track record of rigorous work — published papers, open-source projects, or deployed research

• Curiosity about how large models learn and behave over time, and how to steer that behaviour safely

• Someone who values autonomy, clarity of purpose, and research that turns into impact

You’ll find a culture driven by technical depth rather than hype — where thoughtful research is backed by meaningful compute and where the best ideas scale fast.

Location: South Bay (on-site, collaborative setup)
Compensation: $200 000 – $250 000 base + equity + bonus

If you’re ready to work on post-training research that shapes how large language models behave, we’d love to hear from you.

You'll Bring

• Strong Python and software fundamentals who enjoy building ML infrastructure.

• Experience in reinforcement learning, rewards, environment dynamics, evaluation loops.

• Worked with browser/API simulations (Playwright, Selenium) or distributed compute.

• Experience with open-ended problem spaces and a desire to shape the tools driving safe AGI progress.

It’s a technically deep team of ML engineers and researchers from leading labs and tech companies, developing the simulation and evaluation backbone for next-generation agents.
