Founding Research Scientist / Research Engineer

Open 25d

Summary

Build and research AI systems that deeply understand people, focusing on memory, personalization, and human-AI interaction for a frontier AI lab.

Founding Research Scientist / Research Engineer

Avanti is working with an early-stage frontier AI lab who are building AI that deeply understands people. They’re developing the missing layer between people and foundation models, enabling AI systems to develop a richer understanding of individuals over time.

Founded by researchers from Google DeepMind and Meta, they’re building a small, ambitious team working across machine learning, cognition and human behaviour.

The Role

We're looking for exceptional Research Scientists and Research Engineers to join a founding technical team.

Depending on your background, you might work on:

  • Memory and personalisation.
  • User modelling and preference learning.
  • Post-training and model evaluation.
  • Human-AI interaction.
  • Scalable ML systems and infrastructure.

We're looking for people who are excited by hard problems and enjoy moving quickly from ideas to working systems.

About You

You've probably worked at a leading AI lab, research institution or ambitious startup.

You enjoy building as much as researching, move quickly, think from first principles and are comfortable working without a detailed specification.

You're excited by the opportunity to help shape the research direction, product and culture of a founding-stage company.

For more information please apply online or reach out to Mike Walton at Avanti.
