Descrizione del lavoro

Orbis Operations LLC is seeking an entry‑level AI research engineer to support applied research across AI focus areas, collaborating with senior engineers to reproduce baselines, build evaluation datasets, and run experiments with rigorous documentation.

The role is designed to grow individuals toward owning a research area, with occasional travel up to 10% for conferences and team collaboration.

• Willingness to travel occasionally, up to 10%.

Mansioni

• Reproduce baselines and document precisely where your results diverge from what was reported.
• Build and maintain evaluation datasets and harnesses, including cases that capture known failure modes.
• Run experiments designed with senior research engineers, keeping records complete enough that someone else can rerun them.
• Perform error analysis - characterize what the system got wrong and why, and report it without smoothing it over.
• Implement well‑scoped prototype components with design direction and code review from senior engineers.
• Summarize relevant literature and open‑source work, and explain how it bears on the question at hand.
• Write up results, negative results included, and present them in team research reviews.
• Travel occasionally, up to 10%, for conferences, training, and team collaboration.
