Summary Generated by Built In

Overview

Prime Intellect is excited to announce our AI Research Residency Program, a unique opportunity for exceptional researchers, engineers, and hackers to join our team for 6-12 months and contribute to state-of-the-art decentralized AI research project. This program is designed to provide a bridge for brilliant technical minds from diverse fields to transition into AI research and development.

About Prime Intellect

At Prime Intellect, we are on a mission to accelerate open and decentralized AI progress by enabling anyone to contribute compute, code or capital to train powerful, open models. Our ultimate goal? Openly accessible AGI that benefits everyone.

We are building the infrastructure for decentralized AI development at scale. We aggregate global compute and enable researchers to collaboratively train state-of-the-art models through distributed training across clusters..

About the Program

The Prime Intellect AI Research Residency is a paid, full-time program that offers hands-on experience working on real-world AI challenges alongside our world-class research team. Residents will have the opportunity to:

  • Collaborate with leading experts in AI, distributed systems, and protocols to develop state-of-the-art open language models, coding agents, and scientific discovery models

  • Contribute to projects focused on democratizing AI and making it universally accessible through the Prime Intellect platform

  • Gain practical experience in developing and deploying large-scale AI models using novel architectures and distributed training techniques across thousands of GPUs and smaller clusters

  • Publish research papers and present findings at top-tier AI conferences

  • Develop a strong network within the decentralized AI community

Who We're Looking For

We welcome applications from researchers, engineers, and hackers with diverse backgrounds and skill sets, including but not limited to:

  • PhD students or postdoctoral researchers in computer science, mathematics, physics, neuroscience, or related fields

  • Experienced software engineers with a strong interest in transitioning to AI research

  • Self-taught individuals with a proven track record of exceptional technical contributions

  • Candidates with experience in machine learning, distributed systems, or protocols

Focus Areas

Residents will have the opportunity to work on one or more of the following focus areas:

  • Distributed AI Infrastructure: Contribute to the development of the Prime Intellect protocol, enabling massively scalable, distributed compute marketplaces and collective ownership of AI models.

  • Open Language Models: Build large language models like open-source software, allowing for continual improvement and model merging. We envision a future where all training compute can be built upon by everyone so that all efforts towards intelligence are cumulative. (Inspired by Colin Raffel).

  • Coding Agents: Train AI agents that deeply understand code semantics and can autonomously build complex software systems.

  • Scientific Discovery: Explore scientific agents and foundation models to accelerate research in fields such as longevity drug discovery, materials science and other scientific areas.

Benefits & Perks

  • Competitive compensation, including equity and token incentives, aligning your success with the growth and impact of Prime Intellect.

  • Flexible work arrangements, with the option to work remotely or in-person at our offices in San Francisco or Berlin.

  • Visa sponsorship and relocation assistance for international candidates.

  • Quarterly team off-sites, hackathons, conferences and learning opportunities.

  • Opportunity to work with a talented, hard-working and mission-driven team, united by a shared passion for leveraging technology to accelerate science and AI.

We recently raised $15mm in funding (total of $20mm raised) led by Founders Fund, with participation from Menlo Ventures and prominent angels including Andrej Karpathy (Eureka AI, Tesla, OpenAI), Tri Dao (Chief Scientific Officer of Together AI), Dylan Patel (SemiAnalysis), Clem Delangue (Huggingface), Emad Mostaque (Stability AI) and many others.

If you're excited about the opportunity to build the foundation for the future of decentralized AI and create a platform that empowers developers and researchers to push the boundaries of what's possible, we'd love to hear from you.
