Research Engineer

We’re looking for a Research Engineer to build the intelligent systems that power Antimetal. You’ll prototype new approaches, run experiments, and own the path from research to production. You’ll work closely with platform and product to shape agent capabilities and contribute to evaluation methodology. Infrastructure, and its corresponding observability, is a hard domain to model https://antimetal.com/resources/blog/building-a-unified-model-of-software-systems. Telemetry is high-volume, noisy, and ephemeral. Ground truth is approximate. We’re building AI agents that understand this complexity and can reason about what’s happening, why, and how to fix it, including making changes to code and configuration. RESEARCH AREAS Infrastructure Intelligence: Models that help us understand what’s happening in infrastructure and why. Detecting anomalies, forecasting issues, analyzing telemetry across logs, metrics, events, and traces, understanding causality, and connecting runtime behavior back to code. These capabilities form the foundation our agents use to reason about infrastructure. Autonomous Agents: Long-running, parallel agents that detect, diagnose, and remediate infrastructure issues, including fixing code and configuration. Advancing multi-step reasoning, orchestration, context management, memory, and reinforcement learning. Evaluation: Making sure agents work well and informing how we improve. Partnering with platform to build evaluation methodology, generate synthetic data, analyze historical incidents, and model the domain. ABOUT ANTIMETAL Antimetal http://antimetal.com is building the future of infrastructure management https://blog.antimetal.com/p/the-future-of-infrastructure-is-invisible. We're starting by creating a platform that investigates, resolves, and prevents issues—giving engineers their time back to focus on what they do best: building great products. WHAT YOU’LL DO: - Experiment, Evaluate, Iterate, Ship: Run experiments across our research areas, a
