AI Research Engineer
Traversal, New York
The role
As an AI Research Engineer at Traversal, you'll build the systems our research team runs on. Our agents autonomously diagnose and resolve production incidents for some of the world's largest enterprises, and improving them is an experimental problem: form a hypothesis about agent behavior, test it against real incident data, and ship what works. The bottleneck is rarely ideas. It's the infrastructure to run the experiment, trust the result, and scale the prototype.
That infrastructure is what you own. You'll build the harnesses that let researchers evaluate agents against real customer incidents, the tooling that makes agent behavior legible enough to debug, and the systems that take a promising prototype from one run to thousands. You'll design experiments alongside researchers rather than only implementing them, and you'll carry the results across the line into production.
