About Snorkel Snorkel AI is the frontier AI data lab, helping teams build the data and environments behind high-performing frontier and agentic AI. We combine technology with research-driven AI data development to create datasets, benchmarks, evals, and custom solutions for real-world AI systems. Founded out of the Stanford AI Lab in 2019, Snorkel works with leading AI labs and enterprises to move from better data to better outcomes. Excited to help us redefine how AI is built? Apply to be the newest Snorkeler! About the Role Snorkel AI is hiring Forward Deployed Researchers (Multiple levels) who will partner with frontier AI labs on their most challenging data problems. This is a high-impact, customer-facing role that combines deep technical and research credibility with the ability to work directly with customer research teams. You'll partner with customer research teams to design complex data and environments that improve frontier model performance, serving as a thought partner throughout the engagement. You'll work at the critical intersection of research, technical strategy, and customer partnership. This includes scoping training data needs, designing RL environments and tasks, developing evaluation frameworks, probing model behavior and failure modes, and translating customer research objectives into actionable technical plans. Forward Deployed Researchers own a technical domain. You are the person who knows where frontier models fail in it, what data moves those numbers, and what we should build next. Main Responsibilities Own a technical domain end to end: the technical bar for what we build in it, and what we build next Partner with frontier AI research labs to design datasets and environments that improve model performance Lead technical conversations with customer researchers to understand model capabilities, failure modes, data requirements, and success criteria Probe model behavior through systematic evaluation to uncover weaknesses and identify high-i…
