About the role
About Deeptune Deeptune builds training gyms for AI agents: high-fidelity simulation environments where AI learns to perform real-world tasks through reinforcement learning. We work with the leading AI labs to help them train the next generation of agentic models, and our environments have already contributed to recent breakthroughs in computer use, code generation, and multi-step task completion. We’re a small, focused team of engineers and operators with deep ties to frontier research. Earlier this year, Andreessen Horowitz led our $43 million Series A, and we also announced our acquisition by Mercor.
