(I want to preface that we don't have a ton of budget to expand our team right now and we want to keep the team small, but I also don't want to miss someone who would be a great fit)
We are a self-funded independent AI research lab in Zurich. Currently we explore ARC-AGI3, LLM/RL reasoning, and quant. We recently started a new LLM post-training and pre-training effort, led by some ex-engineers from the swissAI Apertus team. We also like to do some Kaggle on the side, our team includes the top #3 and #12 globally.
Our overall roadmap is to catch up with LLM capabilities, own the full stack, and use it to do our own independent research, pushing efficiency and looking for new paradigms. We expect our new cluster (2x NVL GB300) to be up by the end of the month.
Long term we want to switch to AI alignment/safety research as I believe this is all that matters when AI capability is high enough.
We look for people who are driven, who believe it's possible to make significant contributions to both AI capabilities and safety, and with previous experience pre-training and post-training LLMs and related infra.
