Develop and evaluate new algorithms and approaches, bridging cutting-edge academic research with production-grade AI systems.
Optimize models for production, balancing quality, latency, throughput, and cost at scale.
Own the AI lifecycle-from algorithmic prototyping and synthetic data generation to evaluation, deployment, and iteration of production AI features.
Work closely with engineering and product teams to translate research advances into impactful AI capabilities.
Lead research initiatives that advance the capabilities of our AI systems.

Explore and implement OS-native isolation mechanisms across macOS, Windows, and Linux, including containers, namespaces, sandbox profiles, virtualization, restricted processes, and permission models.
Build endpoint "harnesses" that allow TokenShift to intercept, control, observe, and modify agent execution flows.
Design infrastructure for deploying and running local LLMs across heterogeneous endpoint fleets, accounting for operating system, CPU architecture, GPU availability, memory constraints, and hardware acceleration.
Evaluate local inference runtimes and model formats such as llama.cpp, MLX, ONNX Runtime, Ollama, vLLM-compatible runtimes, and emerging alternatives.
Develop mechanisms for model discovery, installation, versioning, updates, health monitoring, and lifecycle management across large numbers of developer machines.
Research hardware-aware model selection and routing, deciding which models can run effectively on Apple Silicon, NVIDIA GPUs, Windows workstations, Linux machines, CPU-only environments, and other endpoint configurations.
Build benchmarks that measure model latency, throughput, memory consumption, startup time, resource contention, and developer experience on real endpoint hardware.
Investigate security boundaries between local models, cloud-hosted models, agents, MCP servers, shells, and enterprise resources.
Collaborate with the core CLI and platform teams to take endpoint research from prototype through production.
Track the rapidly evolving AI agent, sandboxing, and local inference ecosystems and proactively identify technologies should support.

This is a research‑first role focused on deeply understanding LLM internals to improve the security of AI agents. Youll design careful experiments on activations and interpretable features- e.g., probing, attribution & ablation/patching, representation‑geometry analyses-to uncover mechanisms behind jailbreak, indirect prompt injection, and other attacks. Then translate those insights into signals that can be used for detection and analysis of a model response.

The field of LLM interpretability at scale is exploding, with several major publications in the last months, and major opportunities for innovation.

Responsibilities:
Investigate model internals, including activation/features analysis, unsupervised clustering, discovery of directions in latent space, etc. It may also require training specific model parts to improve interpretability metrics.
Design security‑grounded evaluations: curate datasets for different attack types, evaluate performance of different white box (model internals) methods compared to black box (input/output only) baselines.
Publish and share: produce our Labs posts and open artifacts; when the work is strong, aim for tier‑1 ML venues (NeurIPS, ICML, etc.) and security forums. A publication of code and/or trained models in cases of community relevant novelty.
Build tools: Several open source libraries exist (like Anthropics attribution graphs infra), but the research in the field is very dynamic, which will require you to build and adapt tools to your own research directions. This also includes agents to automate research work and distill knowledge from designed experiments.

We are looking for a talented AI Applied Researcher to help us develop advanced AI solutions that will empower impactful projects. The Data Science team leads the AI research and innovation efforts of the company, and is focused on pushing AI boundaries to enhance the product and optimize processes.
