Thinking Machines Lab, San Francisco
We’re looking for a researcher to help develop reliable model evaluations for research signals. This role spans evaluation creation, usability, auditing, and efficiency.
You’ll work closely with researchers and engineers across post-training and the broader research organization. Depending on your interests and experience, you may focus on one area or work across several of these problems.
Preferred qualifications – we encourage you to apply if you meet some but not all of these:
The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it.
