Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Goliath Partners is an ambitious AI startup focused on building general-purpose world models for simulation, and they are seeking a Research Engineer to work on multimodal foundational models. The role involves running experiments to teach models new behaviors, developing new data strategies, and taking features from research prototypes to production.

Responsibilities

• Run experiments to teach models new interactive behaviors, such as scene manipulation, action following, and camera control
• Develop new data strategies, architectural variants, and training techniques while designing rigorous capability evaluations
• Take features from research prototypes to production by collaborating closely with product and creative teams

Skills

• 4+ years of experience in machine learning research or engineering
• Strong familiarity with the architecture, training, and inference of large-scale multimodal generative models
• Proficiency with major ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch or JAX) and hands-on experience with distributed training at scale
• Proven experience building robust data pipelines for both pretraining and post-training (SFT/RL)
• A strong drive to build AI systems that simulate the real world to solve complex problems

Benefits

• Competitive base salary + equity.
