Spend a focused period answering a hard question alongside the engineers building the system. You will have a specific research home and deliverable.
Not open yet: Research program
This work starts when that stage arrives, so there is no application to submit today and we will not pretend otherwise. What is written below is what the role is for and what would make somebody right for it, published early on purpose so you can decide whether it is worth watching.
The work
Run a time-bounded project in an agreed area such as efficient inference, secure delegation or personal learning. Collaborate closely with the relevant team and document methods, baselines and limitations. Define access and publication arrangements appropriate to the appointment.
The milestone
By the end of the agreed visit, deliver a reproducible artifact, a research report and a clear recommendation for the next step.
Evidence
Bring independent research ability and a record of working constructively across disciplines. Appointments can fit different career stages when the scope and supervision are suitable.
Evidence, not credentials. We are describing work you can point at, in whatever form it exists.
The exercise
Outline a short research visit that can achieve a meaningful result without depending on unapproved data or unavailable compute.
