Member of Technical Staff, Agent Code

We’re hiring a Member of Technical Staff on the Agent Code team to advance code LLMs and autonomous agents that interact with the digital world to solve complex tasks with minimal human oversight. This role is hands-on and research-driven, combining engineering and research to build scalable, production-ready solutions. We provide access to world-class compute resources, data, and talent to enable your best work.

Code-generating LLMs and autonomous agents are transforming how software is built and tasks are automated. You’ll be at the forefront of research and engineering, driving the development of cutting-edge code LLMs and agent systems for enterprise use.

Note:

We have offices in London, Toronto, New York and San Francisco, but we’re also remote-friendly. This team operates primarily between ET to CET time zones, so we’re seeking candidates in locations that align with these hours for effective collaboration.

• Stay up-to-date with the latest research in code LLMs, agents, and related fields, implementing novel ideas into our systems.
• Design and implement scalable strategies to train code models, and deploy agent frameworks for inference and sampling. You will be collaborating with the pretraining team, create SFT trajectories and work on existing and new RL algorithms.
• Hillclimb on existing benchmarks and design new ones that reflect the needs of our enterprise users.
• Lead experiments on our state-of-the-art compute infrastructure, pushing the boundaries of frontier LLMs.

• A PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field, with publications in top-tier venues (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP).
• Deep expertise in code LLMs and agent systems, with a strong understanding of the latest research and trends. We are looking for people who not only have worked with code models, but have actively contributed to their development.
• Hands-on experience with frontier LLMs and their applications in code generation or automation.
• Strong software engineering skills, with proficiency in Python and PyTorch, Tensor Flow, or similar frameworks.
• Experience with distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and scalable architectures.
• A proactive, self-motivated mindset, with a passion for solving ambitious, open-ended problems.

• The opportunity to work on cutting-edge problems at the intersection of AI, code generation, and autonomous agents.
• Access to world-class compute resources, data, and a collaborative team of researchers and engineers.
• A remote-friendly, flexible work environment with a focus on impact and innovation.
• Competitive compensation and benefits, including equity in a fast-growing AI company.

If you’re passionate about shaping the future of code LLMs and agent systems, and thrive in a dynamic, research-driven environment, we’d love to hear from you. We encourage you to apply even if some details don’t line up perfectly with your experience. We value diversity and strive to create an inclusive work environment for all. If you require accommodations during the recruitment process, please submit an Accommodations Request Form.
