About The Role We're a small group of engineers, designers, and product folks building at the intersection of conversational AI and domain expertise. Making an AI agent sound human-like is hard. Making an AI an expert in a domain is also hard. We're doing both together. Our product is Vaya - an AI-powered Vedic astrology app used by millions. The Research team owns two outcomes - First: becoming the company's authority on Vedic astrology. Second: breaking down real astrologer mechanics into fundamentals that our engineers can build digital personas on. Write benchmarks for the digital personas. What Youll Do Build domain authority and write documents on astrology concepts that will help engineers ship your findingsBreakdown astrologer personas into clear metrics - traits, modus operandi and vocabulary. Map to our AI agentsSource & vet SMEs, modern and traditional astrological authorities and textsNetwork and engage and modern practitionersDesign and conduct case studies and experiments with practitionersCreate benchmarks for metrics to evaluate persona performanceDiscover new concepts and refine understanding of existing until all questions are answered What We Look For Ability to write documents that convey the message without any fluffFirst principles thinking to break down obscure and layered concepts clearly with logic at each stepPublished papers, articles showcasing your findings and depth of understanding in a domainProven proficiency at extracting information from conversational transcripts, incoherent textbooks or within non falsifiable domains3+ years in a research role at a startup or as a domain research consultant How We Work We care about craft obsessively. Your work gets questioned, pulled apart, and rebuilt not because we're harsh, but because everyone here holds each other to a standard most places don't bother with. We work out of a hacker house in Vasant Kunj. We strongly encourage everyone to be in office. .
