Pluralis Research is pioneering Protocol Learning — a fully decentralized way to train and deploy AI models that opens this capability to individuals rather than well-resourced corporates. By pooling compute from many participants, incentivizing their efforts, and preventing any single party from controlling a model's full weights, we're creating a genuinely open, collaborative path to frontier-scale AI.

Overview We're looking for a Developer Relations Lead to be the technical bridge between Pluralis's research and the broader ML/systems community. You'll take dense, novel research (distributed training, communication-efficient model parallelism, fault-tolerant optimization) and make it legible, compelling, and accessible to researchers, engineers, and builders.

This isn't a traditional marketing role. We need someone who can read our papers, understand the architecture, and explain it clearly in a blog post, a conference talk, or a Twitter thread. You'll own our technical voice and be the person the community associates with Pluralis's work.

Key Responsibilities

• Technical Content: Write blog posts, threads, and explainers that break down our research for ML engineers and systems researchers. Turn papers into narratives. Produce technical walkthroughs of our training runs, architecture decisions, and results.

What We're Looking For

• Technical Depth: You can read an ML paper and extract the key insight. You understand concepts like model parallelism, pipeline parallelism, gradient compression, and distributed optimization — or you can get up to speed quickly. You don't need to be an ML researcher, but you need to hold your own in a room full of them.

What we offer

• Equity-Heavy Package: Meaningful ownership in a seed-stage company.
• Competitive Base: Pluralis is hiring the best. Our team is from Google, Amazon, Atlassian, Anthropic. We want to remain competitive.
• Remote-First Culture: Flexible work environment with team members distributed in Australia and the United States. This is a full-time, remote position with the opportunity to collaborate with the team in person on a quarterly basis.

FYI's

• We only hire in Australia and the United States to ensure timezones align. This role in particular is looking for someone based in the United States (however open to exceptional candidates in Australia)
• Applicants must have professional-level English proficiency (written and spoken).
• Pluralis is a remote team across Australia and the US. You'll need to be comfortable working across timezones and collaborating with a diverse, distributed group.
• Recruiters: we aren't looking for agency support at this time. We'll reach out if we need help.

Backed by Union Square Ventures and other tier-1 investors, we're a world-class, deeply technical team of ML researchers. Pluralis is unapologetically ideological. We view the world as a better place if we are able to implement what we are attempting, and Protocol Learning as the only plausible approach to preventing a handful of massive corporations monopolizing model development, access and release, and achieving massive economic capture. If this resonates, please apply.
