Employer job description
From Variance's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Role
At Variance, we are teaching machines to make the hardest judgment calls at scale. We build AI agents for the high-precision gray area of stopping fraud, scams, and abuse. This isn't another sales tool or a customer service system. We're solving real problems in investigations and fraud prevention to protect innocent people from being harmed.
We’re a small, talent-dense team in San Francisco working on a problem at the edge of what AI systems can reliably do: making good decisions in messy, adversarial, real-world environments.
We’re looking for a Research Engineer to help push that frontier forward. You’ll design evals, study failures, build new research loops, and turn research ideas into production capabilities.
This role sits at the intersection of research and engineering: part model builder, part experimentalist, part systems engineer.
