About Lightfield
Lightfield is reimagining CRM as a world model of a business. By learning from emails, meetings, and customer conversations, we’re building a living understanding of how a company works—so AI can help teams anticipate what comes next, make better decisions, and take action.
More than 5,000 companies have used the product since its November launch. We’ve raised more than $70M from Andreessen Horowitz, Coatue, Maverick Ventures, and Greylock to attack the biggest software category in the world. We previously built Tome, which reached more than 25 million users, and our team brings experience from Llama, Instagram, Google, and Salesforce.
About the role
We’re starting Lightfield Research to build a Business World Model through frontier research in simulation, world modeling and self-improvement. We’re hiring applied researchers and research scientists to lead its first projects.
You’ll report directly to Ves Stoyanov, co-founder and Chief AI Officer, previously at Facebook AI, where he co-authored RoBERTa and XLM-R. You’ll work alongside AI engineers who take research into production and GTM experts who help define tasks and quality.
