We build open models that let anyone control their intelligence and help shape the future of AI. Our mission: make intelligence open and accessible to all.\nAbout the Role\nData is playing an increasingly crucial role at the frontier of AI innovation. Many of the most meaningful advances in recent years have come not from new architectures, but from better data.\nAs a member of the Data Team, your mission is to ensure that the data used to train and evaluate our models meets a high bar for quality, reliability, and downstream impact. You will directly shape how our models perform on critical capabilities - agentic tool use, long-horizon reasoning and robust safety alignment.\nWorking with world-class researchers on our post-training teams, you’ll help turn fuzzy notions of “good data” into concrete, measurable standards that scale across large data campaigns. We’re looking for engineers who combine strong engineering fundamentals with a deep curiosity about data quality and its impact on model behavior\nWorking closely with our post-training teams you will:\nOwn upstream data quality for LLM post-training and evaluation by analyzing expert-developed datasets and operationalizing quality standards for reasoning, alignment, and agentic use cases\n\nPartner closely with research and post-training teams to translate requirements into measurable quality signals, and provide actionable feedback to external data vendors\n\nDesign, validate, and scale automated QA methods, including LLM-as-a-Judge frameworks, to reliably measure data quality across large campaigns\n\nBuild reusable QA pipelines that reliably deliver high-quality data to post-training teams for model training and evaluation\n\nMonitor and report on data quality over time, driving continuous iteration on quality standards, processes, and acceptance criteria\n\nAbout You\nStrong engineering fundamentals with experience building data pipelines, QA systems, or evaluation workflows for post-training data and agentic environments\n\nDetail-oriented with an analytical mindset, able to identify failure modes, inconsistencies, and subtle issues that affect data quality\n\nSolid understanding of how data quality impacts training (SFT and RL) and evaluation, with the ability to translate quality concerns into concrete signals, decisions, and feedback\n\nExperience designing and validating automated quality checks, including rule-based systems, statistical methods, or model-assisted approaches such as LLM-as-a-Judge\n\nComfortable working autonomously, owning problems end-to-end, and collaborating effectively with researchers, engineers, and operations partners\n\nSkills and Qualifications\nProficiency in Python and building ML / LLM workflows. Must be comfortable debugging and writing scalable code\n\nExperience working with large datasets and automated evaluation or quality-checking systems\n\nFamiliarity with how LLMs work and can describe how models are trained and evaluated\n\nExcellent communication skills with the ability to clearly articulate complex technical concepts across teams\n\nWhat We Offer:\nWe believe that to make intelligence open and accessible to all, you need to start at the foundation. Joining Reflection means building from the ground up as part of a talent-dense team. You will help define our future as a company, and help define the future of open foundational models.\nWe want you to do the most impactful work of your career with the confidence that you and the people you care about most are supported.\nTop-tier compensation: Salary and equity structured to recognize and retain our talent globally.\n\nStock options: Everyone who joins and contributes to Reflection's success gets to share in the upside through stock options.\n\nHealth & wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life, with an annual wellness allowance.\n\nMeals: Lunch and dinner are provided in the office daily.\n\nLife & family: 22 weeks paid parental leave for all new birthing and non-birthing parents, including adoptive and surrogate journeys.\n\nVacation days: Unlimited paid time off in the U.S. and 30 days in the U.K.\n\nSponsorship support: We sponsor visas to help exceptional talent join our team and support long-term immigration pathways where applicable.\n\nTeam building: We have regular off-sites, happy hours, and team celebrations.\n\nExport Control Notice: This position may require access to technology or source code subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations. Any offer of employment for this role may be conditioned on the Company's ability to provide the candidate with access to such technology or source code in compliance with applicable U.S. export control laws, which may require the Company to seek government authorization.\nCandidate and Employee Privacy Notice: We collect and process personal data about applicants for the purposes described in our Candidate and Employee Privacy Notice","description_format":"text","description_chars":5021,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Parental leave","Stock options"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Foundation Models","AI Research Labs"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-31T21:48:43Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 35","filings_12m":35,"filings_prev_12m":4,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":188214,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":20,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.729,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":299,"expected_fill_days":147,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/reflection-ai-member-of-technical-staff-data-quality-engineer-post-training","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/reflection-ai-member-of-technical-staff-data-quality-engineer-post-training.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-05T01:37:48Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2051,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-06T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":48184},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=48184"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Freflection-ai-member-of-technical-staff-data-quality-engineer-post-training"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Freflection-ai-member-of-technical-staff-data-quality-engineer-post-training"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Freflection-ai-member-of-technical-staff-data-quality-engineer-post-training"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/reflection-ai-member-of-technical-staff-data-quality-engineer-post-training\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Freflection-ai-member-of-technical-staff-data-quality-engineer-post-training"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":181619}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"reflection.ai","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":181619},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
