Responsibilities


As a Member of Technical Staff on our Frontier Data team, you’ll build the environments, evaluations, and datasets that expand what frontier models can actually do. This is work at the edge of the field: identifying high-value capability gaps, then designing the tasks, reward signals, and data that close them. You’ll write the platform code that lets us run hundreds of thousands of tasks reliably and at scale, and you’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with researchers and engineers at leading AI labs who depend on what we ship. You’ll operate with a lot of autonomy across a wide surface area — systems engineering, ML tooling, and research collaboration — and your judgment about what to build will matter as much as your ability to build it.Design and build RL environments, evaluations, and datasets that target high-value gaps in frontier model capabilityDevelop internal platforms and supporting infrastructure to run hundreds of thousands of tasks at scale, with the throughput, reproducibility, and observability that demandsCollaborate directly with researchers and engineers at leading AI labs to scope and shape dataset development against their model roadmapsMake quality measurable — build the grading harnesses, metrics, and automated checks that tell us whether an environment or dataset is actually goodPrototype fast, then harden what works into production systems others can run without youContribute back to our open source projects where it accelerates the broader communityYou are a strong generalist engineer who is energized by ill-defined problems at the frontier of AI, and who wants to be an important part of an exceptional team using Roboflow’s computer vision platform to advance frontier model capabilities.
