Adaptive ML is helping companies build singular generative AI experiences by democratizing the use of reinforcement learning. We are building the foundational technologies, tools, and products required for models to learn directly from users' interactions and for models to self-critique and self-improve from simple written guidelines. Our tightly-knit team was previously involved in the creation of state-of-the-art open-access large language models such as Falcon-180B. We have closed a $20M seed with Index & ICONIQ, and are already shipping a first version of our platform, Adaptive Engine, to early customers.
Our Technical Staff is responsible for building the foundational technology powering Adaptive ML, in line with requests and requirements identified by our Product and Commercial Staff. We strive to build excellent, robust, and efficient technology, and to conduct at-scale, honest research with high-impact for our roadmap and customers.
As a Member of Technical Staff, you will help build the foundational technology powering Adaptive ML, typically by contributing to our internal LLM Stack, Adaptive Harmony. Harmony is a unified inference+training system, which lowers users' requests and recipes into atomic instructions for GPU workers. Model distribution and ressource scheduling are abstracted away from our users, and fully managed by Harmony itself. This results in extreme flexibility for research scientists in implementing complex agentic workflows involving dozens of models interacting and teaching one another. The codebase makes extensive usage of Rust for most of its logic, Python for modeling and end-users, and dedicated CUDA/Triton kernels for LLM performance.
Some examples of tasks members of our Technical Staff pursue on a daily basis:
We are looking for self-driven, intense individuals, who value technical excellency, honesty, and growth.
