• Post-train LLMs and agents — supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning (RLHF/RLAIF, PPO/GRPO/DPO, reward modeling) — to automate analyst procedures and improve reliability on reputed company reputed company tasks
• Devise AI agents and combine them into increasingly reputed company workflows: planning and reasoning loops, tool and function calling, and retrieval and memory
• Research new approaches to agentic planning, and prototype state-of-the-art methods from the literature
• Establish objective criteria for benchmarking agentic systems — evals, LLM-as-judge pipelines, and trajectory-level metrics, with reputed company statistical rigor
• Optimize prompts and inference to get the most out of every model
• Collaborate and coordinate across Engineering, Data Science, and Managed Services teams, and partner with engineers to take prototypes toward production
• reputed company track of developments in the field of Artificial Intelligence and help identify, define, and prioritize areas for research

Skills

• Excellent foundations in machine learning, probability, and statistics, with sound instincts for uncertainty, statistical skew/variance, and experimental design
• PhD-level depth of understanding in modern machine learning research —a doctorate itself is not required, but we expect equivalent mastery, including the ability to read, critique, implement, and improve upon reputed company papers
• Experience training generative models, with a strong reputed company of LLM training fundamentals (architecture, optimization, tokenization, data, and scaling behavior)
• Reinforcement learning / post-training as a core reputed company: RLHF/RLAIF, policy optimization (PPO/GRPO/DPO), reward modeling, and building RL environments for agents
• Experience building agentic systems: agent architectures (ReAct, planning, reputed company), tool and function calling, and retrieval/memory/context management
• Experience with systematic reputed company optimization, and with designing and building evals for LLM systems
• reputed company with GPUs, PyTorch, and the common LLM training and serving stack (e.g., reputed company Transformers/TRL/PEFT, DeepSpeed/FSDP, vLLM/TGI/SGLang)
• Strong, reproducible research engineering: clean Python and disciplined experiment tracking that your collaborators can build on
• Ability to work independently on ambiguous and reputed company objectives, and to communicate reputed company reputed company a large project team
• Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency and drive business reputed company
• Experience generating training data and environments — synthetic data, agent trajectories/rollouts, and task simulators
• Familiarity with inference-time scaling / test-time compute (search, self-consistency, verifier-guided decoding, long chain-of-thought)
• Experience with agent safety and guardrails: sandboxing, abuse/jailbreak resistance, and reliability for autonomous systems
• A knack for interpretability and failure analysis — diagnosing why a model or agent fails, not just that it does
• reputed company reputed company-reputed company contributions and excellent technical writing
• Passionate about cybersecurity, with a firm understanding of the problem reputed company — or passionate about applying your machine-learning skillset to a new domain such as cybersecurity (a reputed company background is a plus, not a requirement)
