Key Responsibilities
- Design the agentic framework that powers our platform to discover new materials
- Build the integration that connects agents to ML models, simulation engines, databases, and heterogeneous compute backends
- Design pipelines that let agents autonomously plan, schedule, execute, and interpret computational tasks at scale
- Use expert annotations from the Chemistry team to drive targeted improvements in agent planning, retrieval, and decision-making
- Create evaluations to measure the effectiveness of agents
- Build agents that perform experimental design using Bayesian optimization, active learning, or related methods
- Help close the loop between simulation and physical experiments
- Develop strategies for multi-fidelity and multi-objective decision-making
- Work closely with Chemists, Materials Scientists, and the rest of the Agent team
- Work on customer projects and implement the direct needs required for these projects
