Job Description

ML Engineer improving post-training, evaluation, and tool-using agents for KIEFER’s sovereign AI infrastructure and enterprise products. Enhancing long-context reliability and production inference.

Responsibilities:

  • Run post-training experiments using supervised fine-tuning, preference optimization, reinforcement learning, or other suitable methods
  • Improve how agents plan, use tools, manage execution, and recover from errors
  • Build benchmarks, verifiers, and diagnostic tools to measure agent performance and identify failures
  • Generate and curate training data, including agent trajectories and difficult cases from target workflows
  • Evaluate and improve long-context behavior, memory and retrieval interactions, and reliability over multi-step tasks
  • Work with ML, Product, and Engineering to improve inference and bring successful experiments into production with clear regression checks

Requirements:

  • 3+ years of relevant ML or research engineering experience, with clear technical ownership and measurable results
  • Hands-on LLM post-training experience in at least one area: supervised fine-tuning, preference optimization, reinforcement learning, or a comparable method
  • Experience building agent systems involving tool use, multi-step execution, and error recovery
  • Strong skills in model and agent evaluation, failure analysis, and the creation or curation of training data
  • Strong Python, hands-on experience with PyTorch, JAX, TensorFlow, or a similar framework, and solid software engineering skills
  • Experience improving or deploying model-backed systems, with an understanding of LLM inference performance and cost
  • Reward modeling or verifier-based training
  • Long-context training, memory systems, retrieval, or context compression
  • Distributed training or high-performance LLM serving
  • Experience delivering agents for complex enterprise, coding, or research workflows

Benefits:

  • Competitive package aligned with talent benchmarks
  • Hands-on work shaping AI capabilities for Kiefer Tech’s products and real-world applications
  • Engineering-first, high autonomy, low bureaucracy, and space to shape meaningful AI products
