At Hugging Face, we’re on a journey to democratize good AI. We are building the fastest growing platform for AI builders with over 5 million users & 100k organizations who collectively shared over 1M models, 300k datasets & 300k apps. Our open-source libraries have more than 400k+ stars on Github.
About the Role
2025 will be the year of Agents.
LLM agents, what are these? In short, agentic systems are a way to connect an LLM to the outside world, to let it perform actions and observations. The promises of such a setup are immense : it enables an LLM to get external knowledge to ground its reasoning, use reliable tools for specific tasks, and even self-correct errors through additional iterations. An agentic system requires a powerful enough LLM to reason and plan actions. Now with the progress of LLMs in general and specifically open models overtaking closed ones, we have all the weapons to build great agents.
So Hugging Face is launching a moonshot in that direction. We’ve already published the library smolagents, gathering 4k stars in a few days at the time of writing.
On top of keeping the momentum with smolagents, we intend to launch a new direction of effort : GUI agents, i.e. agents that take screen recordings from any GUI, and act through a mouse/keyboard setup. You may have seen such models from other companies: we’ll make them better and open, building all the stack necessary towards efficient GUI agents, and open-sourcing useful building blocks that we made along the way.
What you will do
Building agents is both exciting and challenging as it lies at the intersection of post-training, inference, orchestration as well as UX design. This job will include the whole agent stack, including:
At Hugging Face, everything you do will have an outsized impact. Every employee is empowered to take important decisions, and every decision has a global reach thanks to our massive open-source community. This is the place on Earth where you have the best chances to make a 1000x impact.
