Member of Technical Staff - Sandbox Service at xAI

SpaceXAI’s mission is to create AI systems that can accurately understand the universe and aid humanity in its pursuit of knowledge. Our team is small, highly motivated, and focused on engineering excellence. The Sandbox service team builds and maintains a secure, scalable system that gives our models safe, controlled access to computational environments. This infrastructure powers critical workloads across training and product, enabling models to run code, build software, interact with tools, and even control applications with user interfaces. We provision containers and virtual machines on large‑scale clusters, granting models interactive control over remote environments. Our work spans the full stack, from orchestrating massive jobs and resource scheduling at the cluster level, to fine‑tuning filesystem performance on nodes. The Sandbox service enables Grok to safely run and test code in real‑time for user queries, and supports reinforcement learning in training, where models interactively explore tools ranging from compilers to productivity apps.
