ML Engineer / Researcher — LLM Fine-Tuning & Post-Training
You will help determine which models should power Serus and develop the training processes that make them better at our work.
Anon AI Labs, the company behind Serus. Location: San Francisco preferred. UK, Sweden and other locations considered.
About us
Anon AI Labs builds Serus, a personal AI product that combines intelligence research with actions that reduce digital exposure.
We’re exploring specialized models to power our customer-facing intelligence engine and agents. We want models with deep capability in security and privacy, strong tool use and the judgment to handle demanding research tasks appropriately.
The role
The goal is to deploy models inside the customer-facing product. Your work will influence the quality of investigations, the agent’s decisions and its ability to complete complex tasks.
You should understand the full path from choosing a base model to preparing data, training, evaluation and production deployment.
What you’ll do
- Evaluate suitable open-weight models and establish strong baselines.
- Build training datasets for intelligence research, tool use and agent behavior.
- Fine-tune models for domain knowledge, decision-making and task execution.
- Develop evaluations that measure performance on realistic customer workflows.
- Improve the handling of complex security material and sensitive context.
- Investigate supervised fine-tuning, preference optimization, distillation and other relevant techniques.
- Work with agent and backend engineers to deploy trained models.
- Measure quality, latency, inference cost and operational requirements.
What we’re looking for
- Hands-on experience fine-tuning or post-training language models.
- Strong Python and practical knowledge of modern training frameworks.
- Experience preparing high-quality datasets and designing meaningful evaluations.
- The ability to diagnose model failures and run disciplined experiments.
- An understanding of inference and production deployment.
- Experience with tool-using models, security-domain data or agent training is particularly relevant.
