About the Role
As an LLM Agent Research Scientist, you'll define and lead research that pushes the limits of what LLM-powered agents can do. You'll design agent architectures, reasoning and planning methods, tool-use and multi-agent frameworks, and the post-training recipes (including RL) that make agents capable and dependable. You'll also train models with high-end GPUs on large, high-quality datasets. You'll sit at the intersection of frontier research and product, directly shaping how LLM agents transform the way people create and get work done in Canva.
作为大模型智能体研究科学家,你将定义并主导不断突破智能体能力上限的研究。你将设计智能体架构、推理与规划方法、工具调用与多智能体框架,以及让智能体更强大、更可靠的后训练方案(包括 RL)。你也会在大规模、高质量的数据集上,用高端 GPU 训练模型。你将处在前沿研究与产品的交汇点,直接影响大模型智能体如何改变人们在 Canva 上创作与工作的方式。
At the moment, this role is focused on
•
Research Direction: Determining and leading agent research initiatives aligned with the frontier of LLM/agent research and Canva's product goals.
•
Model Innovation: Creating novel agent capabilities through post-training and RL—developing reward modeling, synthetic data, and environment design—and running experiments with high-end GPUs on large, high-quality datasets to validate hypotheses and translate results into shippable improvements.
•
Harness Innovation: Designing and building the agent harness that lets agents execute complex, long-horizon tasks reliably in production, and exploring harness techniques for self-improvement.
•
Evaluation: Creating rigorous benchmarks and evaluation methods for agent correctness, safety, robustness, and real-world task success.
