Applied AI Researcher, System Discovery

• Analogous to hypothesis generation in the space of AI for scientific discovery, the System Discovery team focuses on identifying entirely new classes of AI systems. Researchers explore a wide range of architectures, modalities, and compositions to uncover how AI can most effectively reshape work
• Draw connections across disparate domains to uncover new system archetypes. Experiment with unconventional problem definitions and develop prototypes that reveal new categories of human–AI collaboration

What we are looking for

At Distyl we’re pushing the envelope of AI utilization in enterprise. This requires creative researchers who don’t just want to drive incremental improvements on benchmarks or optimize an existing process but instead are looking to creatively redefine how software is used.

Our researchers come from many academic backgrounds but have strong research track records, operate in an AI-native way, and would be bored staying on the rails of a traditional research org.
