Staff / Principal Research Scientist, Models - Switzerland
Inworld, Switzerland
What you need
You don't need all of this. But you need enough to make a case.
- Foundation models: training, new architectures, RL, reward modeling, scaling
- Evaluation: benchmarks, eval loops, quality measurement, LLM-as-judge, failure analysis
- Frontier topics: multimodal models, agents, tool use, test-time compute, world models
- Published research at ICML, ICLR, NeurIPS, EMNLP, ACL, or AAAI
- PhD in ML/NLP — or equivalent practical experience you can point to
- Public work: non-trivial AI side projects, interdisciplinary experiments, open-source contributions
- Full-stack research ownership: you frame the question, run the experiments, write the paper, ship the result
- Professional fluency in English (written and spoken) is required, as you will be collaborating daily with our US-based leadership and engineering teams.
If you learned through building, competitions, or collaborations outside academia, that counts. We care about evidence, not credentials.
