About the role

Research that ships

We sit between the lab and production. Papers matter here, and so does the pull request that puts the finding in front of a user.

Retrieval Evaluation Model reliability Benchmark datasets Distributed training

Role overview

You will join a six-person applied research group working on retrieval, evaluation, and model reliability. The work runs end to end: framing the question, building the dataset, running the experiment, then shipping the result as a service other teams depend on.

Expect roughly half your week in code and half in analysis and writing. We publish internal findings every fortnight and externally two or three times a year.
