Research Engineer
San Francisco, California • $200K-320K + Equity
Overview
Research engineers at OpenBlock Labs build advanced agent-based reinforcement learning systems that use blockchains as verifiable, transparent environments for training AI. This involves solving novel challenges at the intersection of AI agents, reinforcement learning, and blockchain-based verification.
As a Research Engineer, you'll be at the forefront of a new paradigm in agent training - designing and implementing systems that leverage blockchain's inherent transparency and verifiability to create more capable, trustworthy autonomous agents.
Sample projects include
- • Developing reinforcement learning frameworks that use blockchain-verified environments for agent training
- • Creating verifiable reward mechanisms that align agent behavior with desired outcomes
- • Building autonomous agents that can analyze on-chain data and make informed decisions
- • Designing systems that transform blockchain protocols into transparent training grounds for AI agents
You might be a fit if
- • You have experience with reinforcement learning, agent-based systems, or AI training methodologies
- • You're comfortable working with modern AI frameworks and blockchain technologies
- • You can design and implement systems that bridge the gap between AI and blockchain verification
- • You're passionate about creating autonomous agents that leverage verifiable training environments
