Research Engineer

About the role

You\'ll join our Research team as a Member of Technical Staff with the specialty of Research Engineer.

Laude Institute systematically identifies projects with potential for outsized real-world impact and supercharges them with a variety of resources. One of those resources is hands-on technical leadership from in-house research engineers.

In this role, you will help to identify teams & projects that have headliner or startup potential and dive in as a core contributor or co-lead for 2-6 months at a time. You will work with teams of researchers from top universities, industry labs, and research institutes, with a focus on converting novel research into tangible artifacts that the world can interact with and build on.

This role may be a fit for you if :

• You have a research background, but you prefer shipping code to papers
• You have interest in starting your own company someday and welcome the chance to build muscle and reputation repeatedly shipping open-source, research-backed products that get traction and buzz
• The thought of working in new research areas and with new collaborators at top universities and labs every 2-6 months excites you
• You’re comfortable leading projects — you can convert half-formed ideas and promising early results into a project plan and target outcomes that inspire a diverse team
• You’re also comfortable not leading projects — you have the emotional intelligence to influence without authority, steering projects to better outcomes even when you’re not formally “in charge”
• Building a flexible environment and evaluation for measuring AI agents’ ability to complete diverse tasks in a terminal environment (i.e., Terminal Bench).
• Building an open-source stack (both specialized libraries and integrations between them) for creating frontier-quality AI models.
• Building AI agents that can complete long-horizon scientific research in specific domains.
