Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) & factuality
Prompt optimization
Self-improving AI agents
Best for: Students and early-career researchers with ML / CS experience who want hands-on work on frontier systems.
Why it matters:
Hiring signals reveal strategy. This role shows where frontier AI is headed next: agentic systems that coordinate, learn, and evolve not just generate outputs.
