From Thinking Machines Lab's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it.
We're hiring a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to keep our post-training and reinforcement learning (RL) systems fast, reliable, and easy for researchers to iterate on. Think of this as a production engineering or site reliability role built around model training: you'll own the health of the training runs, clusters, and pipelines that power post-training and RL at Thinking Machines.
You'll work side by side with research teams during active model runs — debugging failures in real time, hardening infrastructure against the next class of problem, and building the tooling and automation that let researchers spend their time on the science instead of babysitting jobs. This role has real ownership: you'll be the person a research team calls when a run stalls at 2am, and the person who makes sure it doesn't happen again.
Location: This role is based in San Francisco, CA.
Compensation: Depending on background, skills and experience, the expected annual salary range for this position is $300,000- $350,000 USD.
Visa sponsorship: We sponsor visas. While we can't guarantee success for every candidate or role, if you're the right fit, we're committed to working through the visa process together.
Benefits: Thinking Machines offers generous health, dental, and vision benefits, unlimited PTO, paid parental leave, and relocation support as needed.
