AI Research Scientist - Generative Models

Radical AI, Inc. is an artificial intelligence company that is accelerating scientific research & development. We are at the forefront of innovation in the field of materials R&D, a critical driver for advancing our most cutting-edge industries and shaping the future. Breaking away from the traditionally slow and costly R&D process, Radical AI leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning to pioneer generative materials science. This innovative field blends AI, engineering, and materials science, revolutionizing how materials are created and discovered. Radical AI's approach speeds up R&D and addresses global challenges, setting new benchmarks in technology and sustainability.

As an AI Researcher specializing in generative models for materials discovery at Radical AI, you will help the development of the first commercial foundation model for materials science. Your role involves pioneering the application of generative models in the field of materials science, in particular by leveraging flow matching, diffusion, and LLMs. You will develop novel models and training techniques tailored for atomistic data in materials science.

Your responsibilities include designing and conducting large-scale experiments to validate the most promising approaches in generative modeling. Collaborating closely with our engineering and computational materials science teams, you will play a crucial role in transitioning state-of-the-art models from research to production. Your expertise will contribute to the broader research community through publications in top-tier AI/ML venues like NeurIPS, ICML, and ICLR, alongside active participation in conferences and workshops. This role offers the unique opportunity to mentor and guide junior members of our technical team and research interns, fostering a culture of growth and innovation.

Positions are available at various levels of seniority: Senior, Staff, and Principal.
