We leverage the power of digital assets and blockchain to build an inclusive financial ecosystem to advance the freedom of money and improve financial access for people around the world.

We are seeking a highly motivated and technically strong research scientist/engineer to advance the reasoning and planning capabilities of foundation models. You will work on improving performance across the model development lifecycle—spanning data generation, model fine-tuning, evaluation, and agent-based task-solving—through cutting-edge methods in reinforcement learning, tool use, and complex decision-making strategies.

Responsibilities

    • Advance Reasoning & Planning: Enhance reasoning and planning abilities in foundation models across all stages—data acquisition, model evaluation, supervised fine-tuning (SFT), reward modeling, and reinforcement learning (RL).
    • Data Synthesis: Create and curate large-scale, high-quality datasets through techniques such as rewriting, augmentation, and generation, supporting improvements in pretraining, SFT, and RL phases.
    • Complex Problem Solving: Tackle challenging tasks using system 2 thinking and advanced decoding methods such as Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) and A*.
    • Evaluation Methodologies: Design and implement robust evaluation frameworks to measure model capabilities and performance throughout development.
    • Tool Use & Agent Development: Enable models to utilize external tools, interact with APIs, and run code interpreters. Develop both single and multi-agent systems to address sophisticated problems.

Requirements

    • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Applied Math, Statistics, or related fields.
    • Solid research experience in reinforcement learning (RL), large language models (LLMs), and familiarity with large-scale model training practices.
    • Strong foundations in data structures and algorithms, with proficiency in Python or C++/Java.
    • Demonstrated impact through notable projects or publications in RL, natural language processing (NLP), or deep learning.
    • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, especially in the context of large-scale model development and deployment.
    • Strong communication and collaboration abilities, with a passion for innovation and advancing AI technologies with the team.
    • Bilingual English/Mandarin is required to be able to coordinate with overseas partners and stakeholders.
