About the role

WHO WE ARE We are an applied AI lab building end-to-end software agents. We're the team behind Devin, the first AI software engineer, and Windsurf, an AI-native IDE. These products represent our vision for AI that doesn't just assist engineers, but works alongside them as a genuine teammate. Our team is small and talent-dense: world-class competitive programmers, former founders, and researchers from the frontier of AI, including Scale AI, Palantir, Cursor, Google DeepMind, and others. ROLE MISSION Mid-training sits at the seam between pre-training and post-training and is one of the highest-leverage points in the entire model pipeline. This is where raw base model capability is sharpened into something that can reason deeply, generalize reliably, and serve as the foundation that post-training builds on. You will own the late-stage training decisions that determine what our models are fundamentally capable of: data mix and quality uplift, annealing schedules, context length exten
