Our team drives the Personal Intelligence research behind Gemini, with a mission to make AI more personal, proactive, and context-aware. You will push the boundaries of Large Language Models (LLMs) to build the brain of the world’s most helpful personal assistant—one that securely integrates with users' personal data to solve real-world problems. Our core research focus areas include:

• Personalization: Inferring and adapting to user intent, preferences, communication styles, etc.
• Context: Reasoning over extensive personal history (e.g., Gmail, Photos, Drive) across diverse modalities (Text, Image, Audio, Video).
• Agency: Empowering AI models to autonomously plan, use tools, and execute complex tasks on behalf of the user.

As a Research Scientist for Gemini Personal Intelligence, you will advance the state-of-the-art in understanding and reasoning to create an AI that truly understands, remembers, and adapts to the user's unique life and context. Key responsibilities for this role:

• Driving research on post-training techniques (e.g., RL, SFT, and preference optimization) specifically tailored for personalization scenarios.
• Developing novel evaluation frameworks and simulation methods to measure model quality against user behaviors / feedback.
• Designing and training agents capable of orchestrating tools and APIs to deliver hyper-personalized experiences.
