Research Product Manager

Thinking Machines Lab's mission is to empower humanity through advancing collaborative general intelligence. We're building a future where everyone has access to the knowledge and tools to make AI work for their unique needs and goals. We are scientists, engineers, and builders who’ve created some of the most widely used AI products, including ChatGPT and Character.ai, open-weights models like Mistral, as well as popular open source projects like PyTorch, OpenAI Gym, Fairseq, and Segment Anything. About the Role As a Research Product Manager (RPM) at Thinking Machines Lab, you’ll play a central role in driving complex, high-impact technical products and programs that span research, infrastructure, and applied. You’ll help turn ambitious ideas into reality by driving cross-functional efforts, maintaining momentum across projects, and creating clarity in fast-moving, ambiguous environments. Your work will connect people, ideas, and systems to ensure that our most important research initiatives stay aligned, well-scoped, and moving forward efficiently. It’s for someone who thrives in deeply technical discussions, understands the rhythm of research, can abstract at high-level and get into the weeds, with the ultimate goal of helping the company execute at scale. Note: This is an "evergreen role" that we keep open on an on-going basis to express interest. We receive many applications, and there may not always be an immediate role that aligns perfectly with your experience and skills. Still, we encourage you to apply. We continuously review applications and reach out to applicants as new opportunities open. You are welcome to reapply if you get more experience, but please avoid applying more than once every 6 months. You may also find that we put up postings for singular roles for separate, project or team specific needs. In those cases, you're welcome to apply directly in addition to an evergreen role.
