H exists to push the boundaries of superintelligence with agentic AI. By automating complex, multi-step tasks typically performed by humans, AI agents will help unlock full human potential.
H is hiring the world’s best AI talent, seeking those who are dedicated as much to building safely and responsibly as to advancing disruptive agentic capabilities. We promote a mindset of openness, learning, and collaboration, where everyone has something to contribute.
The Models team builds the foundational models that power our cutting-edge agentic technology. We focus on training techniques to optimize model capabilities specifically for agent applications. This allows us to achieve the best performance at a given inference cost.
Our work spans the development of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs), enabling agents to perceive, understand, and act within complex environments. We own the entire pipeline including synthetic data generation, environment design, mid-training, supervised fine-tuning, offline reinforcement learning, online reinforcement learning, reward modelling, transition modelling, etc. Our team also has dedicated MLOps, Infra and Inference support at scale. We focus on improving the long horizon, goal-conditioned instruction-following of large models for GUI/Computer Use agentic interactions, tool use in complex dynamic environments. We regularly ship releases that establish new SOTA in public leaderboards. We parallely operate at the intersection of research and product, translating cutting-edge research into practical solutions that drive the next generation of AI. We are looking for bright, motivated individuals to join us and shape the future of superintelligent AI. Check some of our output
