About the role

Multimodal intelligence. Build systems that understand creators, brands, briefs, and content across video, audio, image, and text. Ranking, recommendation, and prediction. Develop models that predict creator-brand fit and campaign outcomes and make better decisions from sparse, heterogeneous feedback.

What they're looking for

  • Depth in one or more areas such as foundation models, multimodal learning, recommendation and ranking, representation learning, reinforcement learning and decision-making, causal inference, optimization, or adjacent fields
  • Ability to turn ambiguous product problems into tractable research questions, run rigorous experiments, and translate successful approaches into production systems
  • Strong engineering skills and experience taking ML work beyond prototypes
  • Strong knowledge of current AI research and the judgment to determine which methods are useful in practice
More about this role

Agentio builds AI-native infrastructure for creator advertising. Our platform uses AI to turn creative and performance signals into campaign strategies, match brands with creators, recommend sponsorship prices, and review videos against brand requirements.

Each campaign generates feedback: how brands respond to our recommendations, which offers creators accept, and how the resulting content performs. We build self improving loops that learn from these behaviors and outcomes to better understand preferences, predict performance, and improve campaign decisions.

We're looking for a Research Engineer to advance that work through applied AI and ML research, developing models that improve the platform's predictions and automate more of the decisions behind creator advertising.

The work spans research and production. You'll evaluate methods from academia and industry, adapt and train models on Agentio's proprietary data, develop new approaches when existing methods fall short, and work with engineering and product to ship them.
