About this role

The role sits on xAI’s Pretrain team focused on discovering new scaling paradigms for model intelligence and effective compute. The position involves exploring what to scale (data, architectures, learning paradigms) and how to scale (large-scale, long-duration stable training runs) to push next-level model capabilities. Candidates will join a small, hands-on engineering organization with a flat structure and high expectations for initiative and execution. The role is based in the Bay Area and contributes directly to xAI’s mission to advance AI understanding of the universe.
