## About the role

Applied Scientists own the mastery of new frontier model capabilities. This includes developing post-training recipes for learning a wide range of dexterous tasks — from pushing the frontiers of science lab automation, to generalizing manufacturing and warehouse logistics, to designing open-ended evaluations that challenge what the models can do, and more. You are responsible for hill-climbing broad sets of manipulation capabilities until they are robust, general, and reusable across multiple applications.
