About the Job: Skyfall is building the first enterprise-scale World Model. Our goal is to build a latent world model that gives agents a human-like sense of foresight in complex digital environments. Unlike traditional physical world models for robotics or autonomous driving, which focus on geometry, physics, and low-level control, our model focuses on semantic and predictive structure in tasks such as navigating enterprise software, booking flights, or operating online stores. We're looking for a Research Engineer (ML) to join our cutting-edge AI research team. This role is ideal for engineers who thrive at the intersection of AI research and scalable software engineering, working on next-generation world models, reinforcement learning, and multi-agent systems. You’ll play a key role in developing AI training infrastructure for world models, and contributing to the broader research community through publications and open-source projects. Key Responsibilities: Develop Scalable AI Infrastructure – Design and build high-performance training pipelines for world models, multi-modal latent representations, and multi-agent systems. Implement Cutting-Edge AI Techniques – Work with state-of-the-art architectures, including JEPA, transformer models and diffusion models. Optimize AI Model Performance – Collaborate with researchers to improve training efficiency, fine-tuning strategies, and inference optimization for real-world enterprise applications. Contribute to Research & Open Source – Publish high-impact research, engage with the broader AI community, and contribute to leading open-source AI projects. Work with Large-Scale Systems – Leverage cloud-based GPU environments and distributed computing frameworks to train and deploy large-scale AI models. Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related technical field. Strong programming skills in Python, with experience in software engineering best practices. Experience with cloud-based GPU training environments (e.g., AWS, Lambda Labs, GCP). Hands-on experience with open-source AI frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX). Experience working with large-scale distributed systems and training pipelines. Nice to Have Qualifications: Master’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related technical field. Published research in top AI/ML conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL). Hands-on experience in LLMs, reinforcement learning, or multi-agent systems. Experience optimizing training pipelines for large-scale AI models. Contributions to open-source AI projects or AI research communities.

Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.

144.883Jobs

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.

Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.

Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.

When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
