About the role

Senior AI/ML Research Engineer focused on developing autonomous agent systems and scaling AI breakthroughs into enterprise solutions within Google Cloud AI Research and AI Rapid Response.

Responsibilities

  • Lead 2–4 week "Strike Sprints" to rapidly prototype advanced agent state machines, tool-use orchestration, and reflection loops, transforming boilerplate programming into intent-driven AI topologies.
  • Partner with product and engineering teams via Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE), embedding into their workflows to translate novel agentic prototypes into scalable enterprise solutions.
  • Architect and build generalizable horizontal agents (e.g., AutoResearch and AutoFounder) to accelerate engineering/researcher velocity.
  • Develop agent architectures, planning frameworks, and self-improving foundation models to advance autonomous AI systems.
  • Collaborate across Google to disseminate technical playbooks and optionally publish breakthroughs at ML conferences.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5 years of experience in software development, including coding experience in Python, C++, Java, JavaScript, or R.
  • 3 years of experience in ML system design and optimizing ML infrastructure (e.g., distributed training, model deployment, evaluation, data processing).
  • Experience developing autonomous agents, multi-agent workflows, or agentic frameworks (e.g., AutoGen, CrewAI, LangGraph, ADK, tool-use/function-calling, or multi-agent RL).
  • Experience designing, pre-training, fine-tuning, or evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs) and multimodal foundation models.
