About the role

ABOUT THE ROLE

Join a small, technical AI evaluation team building rigorous benchmarks for frontier AI agents. You will own the design and implementation of domain-specific evaluations that help research teams and customers understand how agents perform on realistic workflows.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Design, implement, and maintain internal benchmarks for evaluating frontier agents on domain-specific tasks.

- Partner with subject-matter experts to translate real-world workflows into benchmark tasks and evaluation criteria.

- Build reliable infrastructure to run models and agents against benchmark tasks at scale.

- Develop metrics and analyses to assess benchmark difficulty, reliability, and failure modes.

- Validate whether benchmark results align with real-world evaluations and user needs.

- Write clear technical documentation and reports explaining benchmark methods and results.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Two to four years of experience in software engineering, machine learning engineering, or research engineering, including at least two years building AI benchmarks, evaluation infrastructure, or agent environments.

- Technical education or strong fundamentals in a technical field.

- Proficiency with Python, Docker, and Linux for research or production infrastructure.

- Hands-on experience designing and operating evaluations or environments for AI agents or large language models.

- Experience building reliable model or agent execution infrastructure, developing evaluation metrics or statistical analyses, and validating benchmark performance.

- Ability to work with subject-matter experts and understand workflows across technical or business domains.

- Strong technical writing, attention to detail, independent problem-solving, and comfort in an early-stage environment.

- Published research or technical writing on AI benchmarks, evaluation methods, or model failure modes is valued. Reinforcement learning pipelines, data generation, and agent evaluation experience are also relevant.
