MTS - Founding Research Engineer

Adam; San Francisco (CA); On-site; USD 180,000 - 250,000; Full time

Job summary

Adam is building the founding research team to tackle how AI models interpret and edit parametric CAD in 3D space. We seek people who can design rigorous evals, push the boundaries of LLMs in 3D/CAD, and own the full AI stack from data collection to training and inference.

You will join a team that values original contributions, shipped systems, and high autonomy to redefine how the physical world is built.

Qualifications

• Design evals to measure geometric accuracy in 3D space.
• Experience training and serving state-of-the-art models.
• Ability to own data collection, model training, evaluation, and inference end-to-end.

Responsibilities

• Design evals to measure geometric accuracy in 3D space.
• Optimize inference for faster CAD edits.
• Create RL environments to teach long-horizon agents to perform design tasks end-to-end.

Job description

We're building the founding research team at Adam.

At Adam, we're tackling a frontier problem: training AI models to intelligently interpret and edit parametric CAD in 3D space. This demands creativity, deep technical ability, and novel thinking.

As part of the founding research team, you may:

• Design evals to measure geometric accuracy in 3D space
• Optimize inference for faster CAD edits
• Create RL environments to teach long-horizon agents to perform design tasks end-to-end

We are looking for people who:

• Are excited to explore and push the boundaries of LLMs, especially in the domain of 3D and CAD generation
• Have trained and served state-of-the-art models.
• Can own the full AI stack, from data collection to model training, evaluation, and inference
• Have a track record of original contributions in ML (first-author papers, open-source projects, or shipped systems)
• Operate with high agency and own problems end-to-end

At Adam, you will be given the autonomy to do some of the best work of your life and redefine how the physical world is built.
