Senior Research Scientist, Model Evaluation

Join to apply for the Senior Research Scientist, Model Evaluation role at Cohere
.

Evaluation is critical to making progress in scaling intelligence. As models continue to become superhuman in many real-world use cases, we must continue to develop new evaluation techniques that accurately reflect what models are already capable of, as well as set the agenda for what future models should be capable of. In this role, you are responsible for creating next‑generation evaluation methods and infrastructure to measure LLM progress.

• Create ambitious new evaluation benchmarks that push the limits of what our models can accomplish.
• Work on highly cross‑functional teams to translate model feedback into trustworthy, repeatable evaluations.
• Conduct research to advance the state‑of‑the‑art in LLM evaluation methods, including training LLM judges; refining LLM‑based data synthesis pipelines; and improving evaluation efficiency.
• Build scalable and reusable tools for digging into model performance.

• You enjoy rapidly building prototypes that demonstrate the boundaries of what LLMs are capable of, and you have developed resources to measure those capabilities.
• You have spent dozens of hours reviewing complex data and LLM outputs to ensure high data quality.
• You are obsessive about rigorously measuring AI capabilities, and also about making sure your measurements actually align with the capabilities you care about.
• You have strong software engineering skills.
