Head of Research
Gamut, San Francisco
The role
As Head of Research, you’ll own Gamut’s research agenda and build an applied research organization focused on making agents radically more reliable and capable. You’ll define the roadmap across agent planning, tool orchestration, evaluation, and safety; lead hands-on experimentation; and partner closely with engineering to productionize breakthroughs that drive measurable quality and reliability wins for customers.
What you will do
- Set the research strategy and roadmap for agent planning, tool orchestration, multi-agent coordination, and evaluation.
- Build, lead, and mentor a high-caliber applied research team.
- Design and run rigorous experiments (ablations, offline/online A/Bs), defining clear metrics for reliability, accuracy, and performance.
- Own our evaluation stack: datasets, benchmarks, human-in-the-loop reviews, and reliability/safety assessments.
- Develop novel methods (e.g., agent planning algorithms, tool selection strategies, multi-agent coordination, safety/alignment techniques) and ship reference implementations.
