About the role

Conduit is a frontier AI research company, training on a new modality of data: brain signals. Our first goal is to decode thought into text through a non-invasive headset. We're a team of about ten ML researchers and software engineers, working together in San Francisco. Conduit's mission is to increase the communication bandwidth between humans and AIs—and to do so soon. We believe AGI is about to be a solved problem, but keeping humans empowered is not.

More about this role

Conduit is a frontier AI research company, training on a new modality of data: brain signals. Our first goal is to decode thought into text through a non-invasive headset. We're a team of about ten ML researchers and software engineers, working together in San Francisco.

Conduit's mission is to increase the communication bandwidth between humans and AIs—and to do so soon. We believe AGI is about to be a solved problem, but keeping humans empowered is not.

We have about 30,000 hours (and counting) of time-aligned brain signals and typing data, from about 1% of San Franciscans. Your job is to 1) train useful models given the data, and 2) steer our data collection operation so we get more useful data.

Train models: We're in a data-limited regime. As we scale up to 100x the amount of data we have now, we hope to also get 10-60x data efficiency wins. Research spans encoders, decoders, synthetic data, multimodal training, scaling laws, evals, post-training, and more.

Steer data collection: As we expand data operations, we want to track where our data collection can be improved. You'll be answering questions like: does sensor X or sensor Y lead to better downstream model performance? If...
