Responsibilities
- Deliver step-change improvements to Gemini through rigorous and ambitious research.
- Improve the models ability to manage its own context and memory natively, instead of relying on the code wrapped around the model (the harness).
- Make Gemini better at subagent orchestration, which is basically memory management through isolation.
- Advance complex long horizon task execution such as for RSI and computer use where we combine low latency asynchronous execution and long horizon reasoning.
- Build novel infrastructure, gaining a deep understanding of training dynamics, and developing novel RL algorithms.
