We are seeking a Research Scientist to join its Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) organization, focused on making significant advances in Code Generation and LLMs reasoning with specific focus on reinforcement learning, synthetic data generation and advanced scaffolding/agentic techniques. You will have the opportunity to work with a broad and highly interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and cross-functional partners, and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and research facilities.
AI Research Scientist Responsibilities
Lead, collaborate, and execute on research that pushes forward the state of the art in agentic code generation
Work towards long-term ambitious research goals, while identifying intermediate milestones
Directly contribute to experiments, including designing experimental details, implement reusable code, running evaluations, and organizing results
Contribute to publications and open-sourcing efforts
Mentor other team members. Play a significant role in healthy cross-functional collaboration.
