As an applied researcher, you'll work closely with our CEO (also Head of Product), product engineers and the Evals team software engineers to build tools that make AI agent safety accessible at scale for our customers. Our current focus is the monitoring of AI coding agents for AI safety and security failures. You will join a small team and will have significant ability to shape the team & tech, and have the ability to earn responsibility quickly. You will like this opportunity if you're passionate about using empirical research to make AI systems safer in practice. You enjoy the challenge of translating theoretical AI risks into concrete detection mechanisms. You thrive on rapid iteration and learning from data. You want your research to directly impact real-world AI safety. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Research & Development Systematically collect and catalog coding agent failure modes from real-world instances, public examples, research literature, and theoretical predictions Design and conduct experiments to test monitor effectiveness across different failure modes and agent behaviors Build and maintain evaluation frameworks to measure progress on monitoring capabilities Iterate on monitoring approaches based on empirical results, balancing detection accuracy with computational efficiency Stay current with research on AI safety, agent failures, and detection methodologies Stay current with research into coding security and safety vulnerabilities Monitor Design & Optimization Develop a comprehensive library of monitoring prompts tailored to specific failure modes (e.g., security vulnerabilities, goal misalignment, deceptive behaviors) Experiment with different reasoning strategies and output formats to improve monitor reliability Design and test hierarchical monitoring architectures and ensemble approaches Optimize log pre-processing pipelines to extract relevant signals while minimizing latency and computational costs Implement and evaluate different scaffolding approaches for monitors, including chain-of-thought reasoning, structured outputs, and multi-step verification Future projects (likely not in the first 6 months) Fine-tune smaller open-source models to create efficient, specialized monitors for high-volume production environments Design and build agentic monitoring systems that autonomously investigate logs to identify both known and novel failure modes JOB REQUIREMENTS 2+ years of experience conducting empirical research with large language models or AI systems Strong experience with AI coding agents. For example, having extensively used and compared frontier coding agents. For example, having designed / developed coding agents Experience with LLM-as-a-judge setups Experience designing and running experiments, analyzing results, and iterating based on empirical findings (e.g., prompting, scaffolding, agent design, fine-tuning, or RL). Strong Python programming skills Demonstrated ability to work independently on open-ended research problems Bonus: Experience with AI evaluation frameworks, in particular Inspect (though other frameworks are relevant as well) Familiarity with AI safety concepts, particularly agent-related risks Familiarity with computer security, e.g. security testing and secure system design Experience fine-tuning language models or working with smaller open-source models Previous work building developer tools or monitoring systems Publications or contributions to AI safety or ML research Experience with production log systems or production log analysis We want to emphasize that people who feel they don't fulfill all of these characteristics but think they would be a good fit for the position nonetheless are strongly encouraged to apply.

Optimize the monitoring pipeline: Improve log preprocessing and monitor scaffolding to achieve measurable improvements in detection accuracy, false positive rates, and computational efficiency. Advance monitoring capabilities: Begin work on advanced approaches such as fine-tuned specialized monitors or agentic investigation systems, moving our monitoring from reactive detection toward proactive risk identification. REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS Hierarchical monitoring for coding agent security: Design a multi-layer monitoring system for detecting security vulnerabilities introduced by coding agents. Start by cataloging common security failure modes (e.g., hardcoded credentials, SQL injection vulnerabilities, insecure API calls). Build specialized monitors for each category, then create a hierarchical system where fast, efficient first-pass monitors flag potentially problematic code for deeper investigation by more sophisticated monitors. Validate the system on synthetic test cases and real agent outputs, iterating to optimize the tradeoff between detection rates and false positives while maintaining sub-second latency for most monitoring decisions.

ABOUT APOLLO RESEARCH The rapid rise in AI capabilities offer tremendous opportunities, but also present significant risks. At Apollo Research, we're primarily concerned with risks from Loss of Control, i.e. risks coming from the model itself rather than e.g. humans misusing the AI. We're particularly concerned with deceptive alignment / scheming, a phenomenon where a model appears to be aligned but is, in fact, misaligned and capable of evading human oversight. We work on the detection of scheming (e.g., building evaluations), the science of scheming (e.g., model organisms), and scheming mitigations (e.g., anti-scheming and control). We closely work with multiple frontier AI companies, e.g. to test their models before deployment or collaborate on scheming mitigations. At Apollo, we aim for a culture that emphasizes truth seeking, being goal oriented, giving and receiving constructive feedback, and being friendly and helpful. If you're interested in more details about what it's like working at Apollo, you can find more information here. We're now also developing tools and products that make it easier to prevent harms from AI systems widely deployed AI systems. Equality Statement: Apollo Research is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

We're looking for a curious, rigorous, problem-hungry platform engineer (who codes!) to carry the ball as we bring Ashby to the big leagues. Ashby builds software that lets talent teams build an efficient, delightful, respectful hiring process. Similarly, you're an engineer who wants to build a "paved road" that excellent engineering teams can safely take to the moon and back. We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake. Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >100% year over year, over 2500 customers, very low churn, and many years of runway. We'll share more details once we meet, but you now probably have a good idea as to why we're hiring for this role . We've listed this role twice: as a Platform Engineer and Site Reliability Engineer - our team does both, and we are open to candidates who lean towards one or the other. About The Role And How We Work Hi I'm Colin, Head of EMEA Engineering. I've spent a number of years leading engineering teams in startups, and that has always included being close to infrastructure teams - no matter what name they've worn (SRE, infrastructure, platform, etc). I've got my hands dirty building the initial infrastructure for startups and know the value a talented infrastructure engineer brings. The rigour, the discipline, the peace and quiet when everything just hums along. Our infrastructure is in a good place for now. Nothing is static. Ashby continues to grow rapidly, putting strain on our existing infrastructure. We're always looking to give our customers more powerful hiring software, and building new product features often requires new pieces of infrastructure. Having herded plenty of snowflake servers in the past, I've learned there's a better way. I (and Ashby) place a lot of value on infrastructure as code. As a Platform Engineer at Ashby, you'll get to dive into scaling problems, add new capabilities to our platform, and think about how our entire team interacts with infrastructure. All our own engineers own their projects end to end and ship with minimal oversight. We don't put roadblocks to ensure security when common sense will do and we don't build processes like change management boards around the lowest common denominator. But with great power comes great responsibility: we handle personal and confidential data about some of the biggest decisions we ever make at work. As we grow, more and bigger customers rely on us to be reliable and secure and how we operate internally will need to evolve. We're at an inflection point where our ability to scale and deliver a seamless experience has a make or break impact - we have some of the fastest growing companies using our platform every day to hire hundreds of people per month. We need someone like you to make good decisions, debug thorny issues, and build us a future proof platform that can withstand this scale. Our small but mighty infrastructure team has set up a secure and simple environment (we don't believe in spinning up a new service unless necessary!) for our growing product team to build in. That's where you come in: you, too, will own projects end to end and have an impact on core parts of the Ashby developer and user experience. For instance, you could work on: Optimize our homegrown ultra dynamic recruiting DSL to SQL compiler, and create tools to help developers do so Create automated guardrails for the security and privacy of our customer data Help our developers ship features fast through canary deploys, gradual rollouts and feature flags, while keeping complexity manageable and reducing downtime Work with the business and the engineering team to define SLOs and implement the corresponding SLIs. Ensure all communication with external services supports retries and circuit breakers. Implement the infrastructure to support an event driven architecture and data warehouse. We're looking for someone who can build systems that an engineer would like to work with: mature and boring but open minded and approachable. We have to balance reliability with flexibility. Software and its availability are now mission critical to almost every working professional. To be an SRE in today's world, you have to be extremely comfortable evaluating risk, those you take and those others take. You Should Apply If You never stop. You get weirdly obsessed about a problem that doesn't yet make sense, turn it every which way in your head until the explanation dawns. You'll search every rock, inventory every clue, hunt every mismatch. We do that, too - together we'll be armed with state of the art monitoring tools and an impressive amount of data, and join you in the adventure. You don't take shortcuts. You're speaking up for the future user, the edge case, the doomsday design. You know product engineers want to build it with you, and see them as allies, where you give them the power and knowledge to access greater things. You're someone who cares about what you do and the team you do it with, and want to work with others who do as well. You'll be on interview panels choosing your next colleagues, and you'll take that seriously. You only want to work with people who make you better, and want to make you better. You've built infrastructure at a slightly later stage than Ashby is at - you know how to deal with millions of data points, have seen great (or not great) infrastructure make or break customer experience, and have automated everything from provisioning to monitoring and release process. You're a Swiss army knife (all nationalities welcome ; . You'll get every hard problem the company faces. You'll get to do infrastructure updates, security enforcements, database optimization, Kubernetes debugging, and digging through Typescript traces figuring out what doesn't work. You probably don't feel like an expert at at least some of that and that appeals to you. Role All that makes for a pretty specific kind of role, and the job isn't to everyone's tastes! You should not apply if: You don't want to make your own decisions on what is the best paved road to build for Ashby, and expect a lead or manager to make the final call on what that is. Our leads (and managers) give ample commentary and feedback on technical decisions and how they're made, but you ship what you want to build and are accountable for it. You hate SQL. We have a lot of features built around making the best out of data, and our platform engineers also sometimes dive into a gnarly report or advise engineers on a more performant data model to use. You don't want to code. Our SREs are some of our best software engineers and they are just as responsible for the application as the other engineering teams - albeit at a platform level. Reviewing code and submitting code changes will be part of your day to day. Your primary mode of communicating best practices to engineers is live meetings. We're a very async culture and written communication (and code) is how changes get made. As an Ashby SRE, you will need to share new tooling and best practices with engineers faster than your next meeting opportunity will take you. You've never delivered a project, on your own, without someone prodding you for updates. We have no project or delivery managers to fill your calendar with busy work, but the flip side is you have to do your project management, seek the help you need to get unstuck and cut scope when it's worthwhile. Technology Stack TypeScript (frontend & backend), Node.js, React, Apollo GraphQL, Postgres, Redis. We use Datadog and Sentry on 100% cloud based (AWS) infra. We take developer experience and reliability seriously: all engineers are on call in a follow the sun model, and everyone contributes to developer tooling. Interview Process We'll dive into past projects and simulate working together via pair programming, writing product and tech specs collaboratively, and talking through decisions. There are no leetcode or whiteboard exercises. Introduction call with Hiring Manager (15 to 30m, live) A technical screen where we pair in our actual codebase (1h, live) Three non coding interviews that focus on technical design, debugging incidents, and infrastructure (3h 15m, live can be split across multiple days) Depending on our leadership team's bandwidth, we may start with an additional 30m screen with a recruiter. Benefits Competitive salary and equity. 10 year exercise window for stock options. You shouldn't feel pressure to purchase stock options if you leave Ashby - do it when you feel financially comfortable. Unlimited PTO, and we will encourage you to take it. A minimum of 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave, covered by Ashby. For folks outside the US, it may be longer to be in line with regional requirements. Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget. Get what you need to be happy and productive! $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval. If you're in the US, we offer top tier health insurance for you and your dependents, with 100% of premiums covered by Ashby. In other countries, we provide high quality supplemental health insurance for you and your dependents, also fully covered by us. Ashby's success hinges on hiring great people and creating an environment where we can be happy, feel challenged, and do our best work. We're being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up. We hope that excites you enough to apply. . click apply for full job details
