About the Team
The Agents research team is the research team behind ChatGPT Agent, Deep Research, and Operator. We are building agents that can not only reason but also act in the real world: doing research, producing artifacts, and executing actions. We use large-scale reinforcement learning to train our most intelligent language models to perform tasks that might take humans upwards of hours to complete.
About the Role
We’re looking for Research Engineers and Research Scientists eager to advance the frontier of agent research. This role might be expected to handle everything from fundamental research, to contributing to a big model training run, to launching the trained model as an agent product.
This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.
In this role, you will:
Own and pursue a research agenda to identify the weakness of the model and improve it
Build robust evaluations for tracking modeling improvements.
Design, implement, test, and debug code across our research stack.
You might thrive in this role if you are excited to:
Ship frontier research as products that delight real users
Move quickly from prototype to production
Take on a diverse set of responsibilities along the model development pipeline
Focus on what moves the needle the most
Work as part of a team to achieve more than what any one person can
