About the role
We're looking for Research Engineers to automate QC for training data created by companies using HUD’s infrastructure. You’ll build the systems that scale quality to help us meet our continued strong demand. Create QC systems based on true understanding and human judgement, without relying heavily on LLMs
What they're looking for
- Proficiency in Python, Docker, and Linux environments
- Strong understanding of what “good data” means and how to measure it
- Genuine curiosity of different domains and great at asking questions to understand them
- Built scalable data validation pipelines and automated QA/QC systems end-to-end without a fully prescribed roadmap
- Experience working on benchmarks and evals - you can reason about what makes a task realistic, a rubric reliable, an environment usable, and a trajectory useful for RL training
- Early-stage startup experience with ability to work independently in fast-paced environments
More about this role
HUD is building infrastructure to create RL training data and evals for frontier AI agents, as well as a marketplace to sell these to frontier labs through the HUD marketplace. Our platform is used by frontier labs, Fortune 500 companies, and startups. We’ve raised $16M from top VCs and were YC W25.
