Labelbox is looking to solve the problem of developing critical infrastructure that powers breakthrough AI models at leading research labs and enterprises, by building a team that can design, build, and productionize evaluation and post-training systems for frontier LLMs and multimodal models.

Requirements

  • A strong foundation in AI and machine learning, backed by a Ph.D. or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, AI, or a related field (in progress degrees are acceptable for intern positions).
  • A deep understanding of frontier autoregressive and diffusion multimodal models, along with the human and synthetic data strategies needed to optimize them.
  • Passion and experience for LLM evaluation and benchmarking.
  • Expertise in training data quality construction, measurement and refinement.
  • The ability to bridge research and application by interpreting new findings and translating them into functional prototypes.
  • Proficiency in Python and experience with deep learning frameworks like PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow.
  • A track record of publishing in top-tier AI/ML conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP, NAACL) and contributing to the broader research community.

Responsibilities

  • Build and own evaluation and benchmark suites for reasoning, code, agents, long-context, and V/LLMs.
  • Create post-training datasets at scale: design preference/critique pipelines (human + synthetic), and target hard failures surfaced by evals.
  • Experiment and prototype RLHF/RLAIF/RLVR/RM/DPO-style training loops to improve real-world task and agent performance.
  • Land research in product: ship improvements into Labelbox workflows, services, and customer-facing evaluation/quality features; quantify impact with customer and internal metrics.
  • Engage with customer research teams: run pilots, co-design benchmarks, and share practical findings through internal research reports, blog posts, talks, and published papers.
  • Design, build, and productionize evaluation and post-training systems for frontier LLMs and multimodal models.
  • Own continuous, high-quality evals and benchmarks (reasoning, code, agent/tool-use, long-context, vision-language, et al.)

Other

  • A Ph.D. or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, AI, or a related field (in progress degrees are acceptable for intern positions).
  • Exceptional communication and collaboration skills.
  • Ability to work in a hybrid model with 2 days per week in office, combining collaboration and flexibility
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced and high-intensity environment, perfect for ambitious individuals who thrive on ownership and quick decision-making
  • Ability to exercise caution and suspend or discontinue communications if encountering suspicious emails or interactions
