About Bespoke Labs
Bespoke Labs is an applied AI research lab pioneering data and RL environment curation for training and evaluating agents.
Recently, we curated Open Thoughts, one of the best open reasoning datasets used by multiple frontier labs, trained SOTA specialized models such as Bespoke-MiniChart-7B and Bespoke-MiniCheck, and taught agents to do multi-turn tool-calling with reinforcement learning.
We are also core contributors to Terminal-bench, a leading benchmark for agents used by most frontier labs. Bespoke Labs creates RL environments for frontier labs and specialized agents for enterprises.
About the RoleWe need an SPL who obsesses over operational excellence, thrives in ambiguity, and can own multi-million dollar contracts with labs and enterprises from day one.
What You'll Do
Project Ownership & Execution
Own end-to-end delivery of customer projects by managing budget, schedule, and scope

Operations & Scale
Build and scale data pipelines and operational processes that drive real revenue
Manage large teams of global experts (annotators, engineers, domain specialists)
Coordinate work across distributed teams to hit aggressive deadlines
Design systems and workflows from scratch when playbooks don't exist
Strategy & Decision-Making
Make high-impact decisions daily on resource allocation, scope, and trade-offs
Use data analysis (SQL/Python) to track performance and optimize operations
Organize, plan, and prioritize work across multiple concurrent projects
Wear multiple hats: ops, strategy, product, and execution
What We're Looking For
Technical foundation: CS/Engineering degree, comfortable with SQL/Python for data analysis
Project management chops: 1+ years managing complex projects, teams, or operations (PM experience is a major plus)
Scrappy mindset: You figure things out without a playbook and build solutions from first principles
Communication skills: You can coordinate teams, brief stakeholders, and resolve conflicts effectively
What We Do
Bespoke Labs is a venture funded startup creating AI tools for data curation and post-training LLMs. (We are hiring!)
