AI Architect

About the role

We're hiring an AI Architect to sit at the intersection of frontier AI research, product, and go-to-market. You'll partner closely with ML teams in high-stakes meetings, scope and pitch solutions to top AI labs, and translate research needs (post-training, evals, alignment) into clear product roadmaps and measurable outcomes. You'll drive end-to-end delivery-partnering with AI research teams and core customers to scope, pilot, and iterate on frontier model improvements-while coordinating with engineering, ops, and finance to translate cutting-edge research into deployable, high-impact solutions.

What you'll do

• Translate research product: work with client side researchers on post-training, evals, safety/alignment and build the primitives, data, and tooling they need.
• Partner deeply with core customers and frontier labs: work hands-on with leading AI teams and frontier research labs to tackle hard, open-ended technical problems related to frontier model improvement, performance, and deployment.
  Shape and propose model improvement work: translate customer and research objectives into clear, technically rigorous proposals-scoping post-training, evaluation, and safety work into well-defined statements of work and execution plans.
• Translate research into production impact: collaborate with customer-side researchers on post-training, evaluations, and alignment, and help design the data, primitives, and tooling required to improve frontier models in practice.
• Own the end-to-end lifecycle: lead discovery, write crisp PRDs and technical specs, prioritize trade-offs, run experiments, ship initial solutions, and scale successful pilots into durable, repeatable offerings.
• Lead complex, high-stakes engagements: independently run technical working sessions with senior customer stakeholders; define success metrics; surface risks early; and drive programs to measurable outcomes.
• Partner across Scale: collaborate closely with research (agents, browser/SWE agents), platform, operations, security, and finance to deliver reliable, production-grade results for demanding customers.
• Build evaluation rigor at the frontier: design and stand up robust evaluation frameworks (e.g., RLVR, benchmarks), close the loop with data quality and feedback, and share learnings that elevate technical execution across accounts.

You have

• Deep technical background in applied AI/ML: 5-10+ years in research, engineering, solutions engineering, or technical product roles working on LLMs or multimodal systems, ideally in high-stakes, customer-facing environments.
• Hands-on experience with model improvement workflows: demonstrated experience with post-training techniques, evaluation design, benchmarking, and model quality iteration.
• Ability to work on hard, ambiguous technical problems: proven track record of partnering directly with advanced customers or research teams to scope, reason through, and execute on deep technical challenges involving frontier models.
• Strong technical fluency: you can read papers, interrogate metrics, write or review complex Python/SQL for analysis, and reason about model-data trade-offs.
• Executive presence with world-class researchers and enterprise leaders; excellent writing and storytelling.
• Bias to action: you ship, learn, and iterate.
  
  

How you'll work

• Customer-obsessed: start from real research needs; prototype quickly; validate with data.
• Cross-functional by default: align research, engineering, ops, and GTM on a single plan; communicate clearly up and down.
• Field-forward: expect regular customer time and research leads; light travel as needed.
  
  

What success looks like

• Clear wins with top labs: pilots that convert to scaled programs with strong eval signals.
• Reusable alignment & eval building blocks that shorten time-to-value across accounts.
  Crisp internal docs (PRDs, experiment readouts, exec updates) that drive decisions quickly.
