Research Engineer
Ando, San Francisco
Overview
Ando is a messaging platform where AI agents take on work alongside their human teammates. We’re rebuilding Slack from the ground up around two core ideas: durable memory and agents as first-class participants.
We have real, longitudinal, multi-party workspace data, and human / agent users whose behavior tells you whether the systems you're designing are actually meaningfully improving. Working with live business communication means permissions, redaction, and security are things we have to think about as well. If you want to have your research come into contact with reality, Ando is the place for it.
What you need
- Strong applied research background, with depth in model evaluation, benchmarking, and/or failure analysis. You've built evals you trusted enough to make decisions with.
- Evidence over credentials. Work samples or code that demonstrate the skills: eval frameworks, benchmark suites, failure-analysis reports or tooling, labeling infrastructure. Show us something you built to find out whether a system actually worked.
