The opportunity

  • Build and deploy AI models that decide within seconds whether a burst of posts across 150 languages signals a real event, and push the state of the art in real time AI on live global data at massive scale.
  • Advance multimodal and LLM research by creating systems that can verify a video from an unfolding crisis and agents that keep a brief accurate as facts change minute by minute.
  • Take your research from experiment to production, shipping models into Dataminr products used by organizations around the world.
  • See your work shape how teams everywhere respond to critical events as they unfold, where rigor, speed, and good judgment all matter.
  • Partner with a diverse, interdisciplinary group of engineers, product experts, and domain specialists to deliver value for existing and new customers.

  • Track record of research that others build on, shown through publications at venues like NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, COLM, or CVPR.
  • Hands-on experience training and adapting models at scale, backed by strong Python and PyTorch fundamentals.
  • Comfort with modern training and inference tooling such as vLLM and Langfuse, so you can move from idea to a working system quickly.
  • Independence to design experiments, chart your own path, and show progress through principled, well-chosen metrics.
  • Fluency with AI coding and research agents, and a habit of using them to speed up your own work.
