Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software
development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications
directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global
scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

Since our public launch, we've crossed $100M in ARR and grown to over 10M users
across 190+ countries, who have built 12M+ applications on Emergent. We're
backed by Creaegis, Claypond, Sentinel Global, Khosla Ventures, SoftBank,
Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness,
reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built
by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from
Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

The Role:
We're looking for a Research Engineer to characterize, measure, and advance the
capabilities of our coding agents. You will turn ambiguous notions of "agent
quality" into clear,



defensible metrics that the team, leadership, and the field
can rely on, and you will use those metrics to drive both incremental wins and
moonshots in agent performance.

This is a deep-work role at the intersection of agent behavior, evaluation
research, and applied training. You will define what positive looks like for
long-horizon coding agents, build the evaluation dataset and methodology that
produces those signals, mine production data for failure modes most teams never
see, and run targeted training, fine-tuning, RL, memory, and prompt-optimization
experiments that translate research advances into shipped improvements. You will
operate with strong independence, make hard calls in inherently subjective and
probabilistic systems, and own outcomes end-to-end. If you treat models as
objects of study rather than black boxes, take pride in moving benchmark numbers
with rigor, and want to apply
