Think Different. Build the Future.

Our Mission

Build everyday AGI. Trustworthy, consumer-grade agents that redefine human–AI collaboration for millions. Software shouldn’t wait for commands; it should partner with you, amplifying what you can do every single day.

Why AGI, Inc.

We’re a stealth team of elite founders and AI researchers, with backgrounds spanning Stanford, OpenAI, and Deep Mind
. We’re industry leaders in mobile and computer-use agents, bringing these capabilities to consumer scale.

Grounded in years of agent research, our AI is designed with trustworthiness and reliability as core pillars, not afterthoughts.

We are supported by tier-1 investors who funded the first generation of AI giants; now they’re backing us to build the next: everyday AGI. (Watch the demo)

If you see possibility where others see limits, read on.

Make devices think like a frontier model.

Frontier capability inside the compute and memory envelope of a consumer device — phone, laptop, wearable — is not a constraint. It s the most interesting research problem in applied AI today. You ll lead training for one of the model families that powers our on-device agents: pretraining recipe choices, post-training (SFT, RLHF, DPO, GRPO and whatever the next acronym ends up being), distillation, quantization, and the long tail of tricks that make a small model punch above its weight.

This is for the researcher who s tired of training models that go behind an API. You want your model on the device in your pocket, your mom s pocket, and a hundred million pockets you ll never meet.

Tasks you will own
  • One or more model capabilities end-to-end — from data mixture and training objective through eval and shipping into a production on-device runtime

  • The experiment design and writeups that compound across the team — kill what doesn t move the metric, double down on what does

  • A training workstream with a clear success metric and a checkpoint that ships

Areas where you will assist
  • Infra and product engineers, by turning research wins into shipped capabilities

  • Partnerships, by telling them honestly what s possible at the next device refresh and what s not

  • Other researchers, by reading their code and making theirs easier to read

Skills you ll be expected to teach
  • The training techniques that matter most for our regime — distillation from frontier teachers, MoE at small scale, speculative decoding, KV cache compression

  • How to design experiments that move a number you actually care about

Skills you ll be expected to learn
  • What production model deployment looks like under hardware deadlines from OEM partners

  • On-device tool use and agentic post-training at consumer scale

  • The full stack from training run to phone

Timeline of success

After 30 days — You ve reproduced one of our recent training runs end-to-end. You ve named the three highest-leverage research bets for the next quarter and have a take on which two to run.

After 60 days — You re leading a training workstream with a clear metric. You ve shipped a checkpoint that beats the previous best on the eval that matters. People trust your read on what s working.

After 90 days — Your work has shipped into a partner build. You ve made one non-obvious bet that paid off and one that didn t, and the team has learned from both. You re shaping the next training cycle.

Compensation

Competitive cash and meaningful equity. Top-tier relocation and immigration support. Permission to publish what s safe to publish. SF, in person.

How to apply

Send a link to your most interesting result — paper, blog, model card, Git Hub — with one paragraph on why it matters. Plus your resume, Google Scholar, or Linked In. Every exceptional candidate hears back within 48 hours.
