Les missions du poste
About Pathway
Pathway builds the first post-transformer frontier model that solves AI's fundamental memory problem. While transformers wake up in the same state every time-like Groundhog Day-our architecture enables true continuous learning, infinite context reasoning, and real-time adaptation. We're not optimizing yesterday's technology; we're building what comes after transformers.
Our breakthrough architecture outperforms Transformer and provides the enterprise with full visibility into how the model works. Combining the foundational model with the fastest data processing engine on the market, Pathway enables enterprises to move beyond incremental optimization and toward truly contextualized, experience-driven intelligence. We are trusted by organizations such as NATO, La Poste, and Formula 1 racing teams.
Pathway is led by co-founder & CEO Zuzanna Stamirowska, a complexity scientist who created a team consisting of AI pioneers, including CTO Jan Chorowski who was the first person to apply Attention to speech and worked with Nobel laureate Geoff Hinton at Google Brain, as well as CSO Adrian Kosowski, a leading computer scientist and quantum physicist who obtained his PhD at the age of 20.
The company is backed by leading investors and advisors, including Lukasz Kaiser, co-author of the Transformer (the T in ChatGPT) and a key researcher behind OpenAI's reasoning models. Pathway is headquartered in Palo Alto, California.
The Opportunity
You will design and execute rigorous benchmarks and define dataset standards. Collaborating closely with our R&D team, you will build the evaluation infrastructure that guides the evolution of Pathway's posttransformer models.
You Will
- Proactively identify, prioritize, and curate relevant public and client-driven benchmarks across our target use cases and markets.
- Evaluate candidate benchmarks for clarity, data quality, evaluation methodology, and fit with our model roadmap.
- Run benchmarks with baseline models to validate setup, uncover edge cases, and derisk R&D runs.
- Hand off benchmark-ready packages to R&D (specs, data, evaluation scripts, expected metrics, constraints)
- Maintain a shared vocabulary and documentation around benchmarks, datasets, and evaluation formats that GTM and R&D can both use.
- Track and organize benchmark results, model leaderboards, and what good looks like for different customers and scenarios.
- Contribute to demos and publicfacing proof points based on benchmark outcomes.
You will play a key role in defining and driving the benchmarking process for AI model evaluation. Your work will directly influence what we build, how we talk about it, and how customers and the market experience BDH.

Cover letter
It's always a pleasure to say hi! If you could leave us 2-3 lines, we'd really appreciate that.
You are expected to meet at least one of the following criteria:
- You have published at least one paper at NeurIPS, ICLR, or ICML - where you were the lead author or made significant conceptual & code contributions.
- You have significantly contributed to an LLM training effort which became newsworthy (topped a Hugging Face benchmark, best in class model, etc.), preferably using multiple GPU's.
- You have spent at least 6 months working in a leading Machine Learning research center (e.g. at: Google Brain / Deepmind, Apple, Meta, Anthropic, Nvidia, MILA).
- You were an ICPC World Finalist, or an IOI, IMO, or IPhO medalist in High School.
You
- Have experience with ML/LLM evaluation, data science, or technical product roles, ideally around benchmarks or experimentation.
- Are comfortable reading papers, leaderboards, and Github repos, and turning them into clear, repeatable benchmark specs.
- Can talk comfortably with both engineers and customers, and translate between technical detail and business value.
- Care about highquality data, reproducible experiments, and crisp documentation
- Are respectful of others
- Are fluent in English
Bonus Points
- Published or opensourced work on LLM evaluation, benchmarking or data quality.
- Experience designing custom benchmarks or evaluation protocols for novel model capabilities.
Why You Should Apply
- Join an intellectually stimulating work environment.
- Be a pioneer: you get to work with a new type of "Live AI" challenges around long sequences and changing data.
- Be part of one of an early-stage AI startup that believes in impactful research and foundational changes.
Bienvenue chez Pathway
Pathway is building LiveAI™ systems that think and learn in real time as humans do. Our mission is to deeply understand how and why LLMs work, fundamentally changing the way LLMs models think.
The team is made up of AI luminaries. Pathway's CTO, Jan Chorowski, co-authored papers with Geoff Hinton and Yoshua Bengio and was one of the first people to apply attention to speech. Our CSO, Adrian Kosowski, received his PhD in Theoretical Computer Science at the age of 20 and made significant contributions across numerous scientific fields, including AI and quantum information. He also served as a professor and a coach for competitive programmers at Ecole Polytechnique. The team also includes numerous world's top scientists and competitive programmers, alongside seasoned Silicon Valley executives.
Pathway has strong investor backing. To date, we have raised over $15M;
Our offices are located in Palo Alto, CA, as well as Paris, France, and Wroclaw, Poland.
