Founding Member of Technical Staff — RL

## About Naive

Naive is building autonomous companies: agent systems capable of operating real businesses end to end.

We release autonomous company templates and benchmarks, alongside a studio—where users can deploy and operate these systems. Our infrastructure platform, Vetta, powers long-running, high-volume agent workloads.

We’ve raised $28.5M from Nexus Venture Partners, Y Combinator, Zetta Venture Partners, Liquid 2 and leading operators.

## The Role

Build real-world agent environments, benchmarks and autonomous company blueprints—and make Vetta the best-performing agent within them. Accordingly, as a founding MTS member, you have the chance to earn significant equity in a fast growing Series A company.

## What You’ll Do

* Turn complex business workflows into reproducible agent environments * Design tasks, rewards, evals and benchmarks that measure real outcomes * Build production-ready autonomous company blueprints * Run experiments, analyze failures and improve agent performance * Develop training data and optimization loops from agent trajectories * Publish credible benchmarks, technical reports and demos

## Must-Haves

* Strong Python and research-engineering ability * Experience building agents, evals or RL environments * Deep understanding of tool use, long-horizon tasks and LLM failure modes * Ability to design rigorous experiments and ship production systems * High agency and comfort working on ambiguous 0→1 problems

## Nice-to-Haves

* RL or post-training experience * Browser, coding or computer-use agent experience * Experience publishing benchmarks or technical research * Familiarity with distributed agent infrastructure
