Join a high-velocity 10-person applied AI team building a generative simulation stack for millions of users. You will develop multi-agent orchestration systems, real-time diffusion models, and code generation pipelines that transform multimodal inputs into studio-quality 3D games. This founding role offers direct impact on the technical frontier of interactive world generation.
Member of Technical Staff (Agents & Diffusion) at Roam — Applied AI Lab
Join Roam, an elite Applied AI lab in San Francisco building the future of interactive 3D World Models. Backed by the investors behind ByteDance and Anduril, and led by alumni from DeepMind and OpenAI, Roam is looking for a founding Member of Technical Staff to build real-time diffusion and agent orchestration systems. With 13M+ users and a stack that generates studio-quality games in under two minutes, this is a rare chance to ship SOTA research to production at scale. If you thrive in high-velocity environments and want to define the next generation of generative AI, apply to join this world-class team.
Overview
Why this role stands out
Company
Roam - Venture-backed Applied AI lab building World Models for interactive 3D environments.
Responsibilities
What you will do
- Architect agent orchestration and context management systems for sophisticated multi-agent coordination within real-time simulations.
- Implement and optimize real-time diffusion models (ANIMA-0) to enable dynamic world augmentation and high-fidelity 3D environment generation.
- Develop robust code generation systems that translate natural language and multimodal inputs into functional game logic and interactive elements.
Candidate profile
Who this is a fit for
- Proven track record building and shipping production-grade generative systems (code, image, video, or 3D) at top-tier AI labs or high-growth startups.
- Exceptional engineering fundamentals with the ability to move fluidly between research implementation and scaling production systems serving millions of users.
- Thrives in an extremely high-intensity "sprint" environment (996/7-day weeks) and possesses a deep passion for defining the future of interactive media.
What makes it remarkable
Why this role is remarkable
- Work at the bleeding edge of 3D generation with a team from DeepMind, OpenAI, and Anthropic, backed by investors behind ByteDance and Anduril.
- Ship research to production instantly; the team recently trained a V0 real-time diffusion model in four hours and serves a user base of 13M+.
- Massive upside potential with founding engineer equity and a large Series A in progress to disrupt the multi-billion dollar game creation market.
