# Member of Technical Staff (Data Intelligence) at Reka

- **Company:** Reka
- **Location:** US UK, Singapore
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** remote
- **Posted:** 2026-05-14
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-09-09
- **Apply:** https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/reka/32f1d782-9a49-4a2e-8842-ac90d002bc8d

## Job description

In this role, you’ll work closely with model researchers, data infrastructure engineers, and cross-functional partners to make sure our data is high quality and can be produced at petabyte scale in a reliable, efficient way. From understanding how data choices show up in model behavior, to building processing pipelines and running the compute behind them, you’ll help ensure our models are trained on the best data we can get.

## WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Work with model researchers to define what “good data” means for our models, including quality metrics, validation checks, and acceptance thresholds
- Explore open source datasets and create internal ones most suitable to build fundamental World Models
- Build algorithms for automated data quality assessment, data domain mixtures, and domain adaptation from synthetic to real data.
- Track datasets, metadata, provenance, and versions so experiments are reproducible and it’s clear what data went into which training and evaluation runs
- Own CI/CD and development tooling for the data stack (GitHub, Python, PyTorch), and automate repetitive workflows to reduce friction
- Track and optimize throughput, storage, and compute utilization across pipelines and related assets

## WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- Strong ML and deep learning fundamentals with experience building and operating large-scale data and/or compute systems
- Comfortable moving between research questions and production engineering: you can dig into data, run analyses, and also ship reliable systems
- Demonstrated research experience with data compositions, quality, and dataset releases
- Ability to design and execute experiments with convincing unbiased outcomes
- Practical experience with distributed processing and orchestration (Spark, Ray, Airflow, or equivalents)
- Solid Python skills, and familiarity with the tooling around modern model training workflows (datasets, checkpoints, experiment tracking)
- Strong instincts around data quality: how to measure it, how to monitor it, and how to prevent regressions as things scale
- Able to work in a fast-moving environment, prioritize what matters, and communicate clearly with both researchers and engineers
- Bonus: experience with large video datasets, dataset curation for training, or building internal tooling for evaluation/analysis in ML environments

## REKA'S MISSION

Reka's mission is to build useful multimodal artificial intelligence and use it to empower organisations and businesses. We are a globally distributed foundation model startup, headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. Embracing a remote-first approach, our team brings together top talent from around the world. Our founding team, along with many of our team members, has contributed to many of the breakthroughs in AI over the past decade.

WHY REKA?

- An Elite Team: Collaborate with top-tier engineers, researchers, operators from renowned organizations like Google DeepMind and Facebook AI Research (FAIR) and successful startups, driving innovation in cutting-edge AI technology.
- Massive Market Opportunity: Be part of a rapidly growing industry poised to transform multiple sectors globally, offering the chance to make a significant impact.
- Mission-Driven Environment: Work alongside a collaborative, mission-focused team dedicated to advancing AI for meaningful applications.
- Inclusive and Open Culture: Thrive in an open and inclusive work environment that values diverse perspectives and fosters creativity.
- Generous Benefits: Enjoy 5 weeks of paid leave to recharge, comprehensive healthcare benefits including vision and dental, and additional perks that support your well-being.
- Visa Support: We provide visa assistance, including H1B and OPT transfers, for US employees to ensure a smooth transition and support your career with us.

## About Reka

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Reka is an AI research and product company building foundational multimodal models and infrastructure for understanding and interacting with the physical world.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series B)
- **Headquarters**: Sunnyvale, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2022
- **Founders**: Dani Yogatama (CEO), Mikel Artetxe, Qi Liu

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Artificial Intelligence, Foundation Models, Multimodal AI, Enterprise AI Infrastructure
- **Target customers**: B2B — enterprises, developers, and organizations needing multimodal AI models (vision, video, language) for deployment at scale.
- **Mission or purpose statement**: To advance science and build generative AI models for the benefit of humanity, organizations, and enterprises; specifically, to build models and infrastructure for the physical AI era.

## Products & Services
- **Reka Core, Flash, Edge**: A family of multimodal language models available in three sizes, supporting comprehensive multimodal input (text, images, video, audio), with leading reasoning and coding capabilities. Deployable on-premise, via API, or in the cloud.
- **Infer (Inference Infrastructure)**: An inference engine and API for multimodal AI, built for speed, scale, and enterprise reliability.
- **Video Processing Infrastructure**: Scalable infrastructure to tag, reason over, search, and clip large volumes of video data, available via API, MCP, or the Reka app.
- **Claru (Data Infrastructure)**: Builds training data for frontier AI, including egocentric video, robotics trajectories, world-model footage, and expert human judgment at scale.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total Funding: **$170M** across two rounds (Series A: $60M in June 2023; Series B: $110M in August 2025)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: DST Global, Radical Ventures, Snowflake (strategic investor), NVIDIA (led Series B)
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew ~10.7% YoY to 44 employees; actively hiring for 6 technical roles (ML, Robotics, GPU Performance, Applied AI); expanding globally with presence in 9 countries.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Multimodal-native models**: Built from the ground up to handle text, images, video, and audio — not stitched together from separate systems.
- **Flexible deployment**: Models can run on-premise, in the cloud, or at the edge (e.g., Reka Edge), appealing to security-conscious enterprises.
- **World-model focus**: Unique emphasis on physical-world understanding (robotics trajectories, egocentric video, video processing) positions them for the next wave of embodied AI.
- **Founding team pedigree**: Core team from DeepMind, Google Brain, and FAIR, giving deep research credibility.

## Strategic Focus
- **Physical AI infrastructure**: Building the data, inference, and model stack for robotics, autonomous systems, and world-model applications.
- **Enterprise adoption**: Prioritizing on-premise deployment, security, and customization for large organizations.
- **Global, remote-first scaling**: Hiring top talent worldwide, with a focus on engineering and research roles.

## Why Work Here
- **Remote-first culture**: Fully remote flexibility with a "work from anywhere" policy and budget to personalize your home workspace.
- **Strong benefits**: Full health/dental/vision, mental health support, 25 days PTO, family support, stock options, and "Reka Appreciation Days" (extra company-wide days off).
- **Global team**: 17 nationalities represented; regular international offsites (Japan, Bali, Las Vegas, etc.) and in-person hackathons for creative collaboration.
- **Engineering culture**: Described as a team of "curious builders, researchers, and engineers" who value open communication, speed, ownership, and excellence. Titles matter less than curiosity and shared ambition.
- **High-impact roles**: Active openings in ML, robotics, GPU performance, and applied AI — working on frontier research with real-world deployment.
