As an Applied AI Researcher at Tavily, you’ll explore and deploy cutting-edge techniques in agentic workflows, web infrastructure, and RAG—transforming ideas into production-ready systems.
This role is ideal for someone passionate about applied research and eager to shape one of the most foundational layers in the agent stack.

What You’ll Do:

Be the expert in the latest research and tooling around LLMs, RAG pipelines, and autonomous agent architectures.
Develop benchmarks and evaluation frameworks.
Productionize research and build end-to-end reliable systems and models.
Contribute to internal research documentation and, when appropriate, public writing or talks.
Stay up to date on relevant academic and open-source developments in the field.

What We’re Looking For:

M.Sc. in Computer Science, Data Science, or a related technical field — or B.Sc. with 3+ years of hands-on experience in AI/ML applications.
Strong understanding of LLMs, embeddings, cross-encoders, vector search, and evaluation techniques.
Experience running experiments and analyzing results with rigor.
Ability to translate ideas into prototypes and iterate quickly.
Familiarity with open-source libraries, models and research environments.
