Senior Research Infrastructure Engineer

HUD is hiring a Senior Research Infrastructure Engineer to build software and infrastructure for research on training and evaluating frontier AI agents. The role enables researchers to iterate on environments, collect trajectories, and evaluate model behavior through reliable, reusable tools and systems.

Responsibilities:

• Build infrastructure that supports research on agent behavior through reliable environment execution, trajectory collection, and evaluation at scale
• Develop reusable tools, APIs, and pipelines that let researchers launch experiments, manage datasets and configurations, and inspect trajectories and evaluation results
• Turn research prototypes and experimental workflows into tested, documented software that researchers can reuse and extend
• Design experiments to understand model behavior, agent failure modes, and data quality issues
• Make experimentation faster, more reproducible, and more cost-efficient by improving orchestration, observability, and recovery from failed runs
• Partner with research and engineering to translate evolving research needs into infrastructure priorities and architecture decisions, owning systems from implementation through ongoing operation
