About the role

We are building a new class of multimodal foundation models for the physical world. Our focus is on combining time series/sensor data, language, vision, audio, and other real-world signals into unified models that can understand complex systems, reason over long horizons, and support real-world tasks in industrial and physical environments.

Responsibilities

  • Build and improve multimodal foundation models that incorporate time-series/sensor data alongside language, vision, audio, and related modalities
  • Drive research and modeling efforts from problem definition through experimentation and evaluation
  • Own modeling work across data, modeling, and evaluation
  • Advance model architectures and training strategies for physical-world understanding and long-context reasoning
  • Drive and scale research experiments and modeling advances to production models that power diverse use cases in complex industrial scenarios
  • Contribute to research directions with potential for publication

Requirements

We are looking for an experienced, researcher-oriented ML candidate to help build these systems end to end: from problem formulation and experimental design, to model development, evaluation, and deployment. This role is intended for someone who is highly self-directed, can independently perform strong scientific work, and is excited to work on multimodal intelligence grounded in physical signals.

Qualifications

  • Self-directed and comfortable operating in ambiguous problem spaces
  • Able to independently perform strong scientific work, including forming hypotheses, designing experiments, and drawing sound conclusions
  • Experience with end-to-end modeling, including data, modeling, and evaluation
  • Experience with productionization or deployment of ML models
  • Multimodal experience preferred
  • Strong technical judgment and experimental rigor

Skills

  • Experience with multimodal AI
  • Strong programming skills (Python, R, etc.)
  • Experience with machine learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, etc.)
  • Knowledge of natural language processing, computer vision, and/or signal processing

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation package
  • Flexible working hours
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development
  • Collaborative and inclusive workplace culture
