Notable roles at a glance:

Code RL Research Engineer ($500K–$850K, June 11): The week's highest-paid role across all labs. Designs RL environments for coding tasks, builds reward signals for "what good code looks like," and runs training experiments on frontier models. PyTorch, large-scale distributed training, and CUDA/GPU kernel experience required. 1
People Programs, M&A Lead ($310K–$370K, June 9): Anthropic's first dedicated merger integration role — owns the People-side M&A program end to end, acts as counterpart to Corporate Development, and builds the integration playbook from scratch. Requires standing up a People M&A function previously (not just operating one). 6
Head of FX & Risk ($300K–$370K, June 12): Builds Anthropic's FX hedging program from scratch across FX, commodity, rates, and counterparty risk. 8+ years Treasury experience; commodity/energy hedging familiarity required. 7

What the research signal shows:

The Post-Training Tech Lead role at MSL explicitly names agentic task coverage: Deep Research, Computer Use, coding, UI generation, and shopping agents. This is the clearest disclosure of what Meta's post-training work targets in the near term. 62

Five FAIR robotics roles are active this week across Menlo Park and Redmond, with salary bands from $168K to $257K. The AI & Systems Co-design role spans model optimization and hardware co-design — suggesting Meta is actively building toward custom AI silicon. 63

All salaries above are annual cash compensation; all roles include bonus and equity on top. Remote type is not stated in most Meta listings; hybrid (Menlo Park / NYC / Seattle) is Meta's standard pattern based on prior weeks.

Zero salary disclosures on any Cohere listing — this is Cohere's company-wide policy. 78

Notable event: The Staff UX Researcher role (North team, New York hybrid, $160,000–$250,000 USD / $230,000–$280,000 CAD) was removed on June 11, 2026 at 2:26 PM EST. The role had been open for the North product team. Reason for removal is unconfirmed — either filled or cancelled. 79

Role	Apply
Product Manager, Math Agents (FTC)	105
Staff Research Engineer, Applied AI	106
People and Culture Tech & Operations Partner (FTC)	107

Notable roles:

Director, Data Science, Personalization ($384K–$428K + 30% bonus): The highest-compensated role at DeepMind this week by a wide margin. Leads the strategic shift in how Gemini personalizes responses for individual users, mentoring a high-performing AI data science team. 15+ years data science leadership required. 97
Research Scientist, Frontier Safety Loss of Control ($174K–$253K + 15% bonus, posted Jun 15): Identifies potential harms from misaligned AI agents and implements technical controls to monitor agent thoughts and behavior, including chain-of-thought monitoring and adversarial testing. 101
Research Engineer, Embodied Agents ($174K–$253K + 15% bonus): The role description states the mission as "solving physical AGI" — building AI agents that interact with physical environments and deploying learned policies onto real robots. 102
Staff SWE, Gemini App, Data Engineering ($207K–$301K + 20% bonus): The role description notes Gemini's user base "has sometimes even doubled just over the course of a week" — calibrating the infrastructure buildout currently underway. 98

xAI — 6 new roles

xAI (Elon Musk's AI company developing Grok, operating the Colossus supercomputing cluster in Memphis) posted 6 new roles this week — all in Data Center or Operations. This is the third consecutive week with zero engineering or research postings. 108

Two new geographic locations appeared for the first time: Jacksonville, FL and Conroe, TX, both associated with data center construction and logistics roles. This suggests xAI is building new sites beyond Memphis/Southaven.

Role	Dept	Location	Type	Salary	Apply
Water Treatment Operator	Data Center	Memphis, TN / Southaven, MS	Permanent, onsite	Not disclosed	109
Procurement Analyst (Temporary)	Data Center	Jacksonville, FL	Temporary, onsite	Not disclosed	110
Warehouse Manager (Temporary)	Data Center	Jacksonville, FL	Temporary, onsite	Not disclosed	111
Warehouse Supervisor (Temporary)	Data Center	Conroe, TX / Jacksonville, FL	Temporary, onsite	Not disclosed	112
Logistics Specialist (Temporary, 6-month)	Data Center	Conroe, TX / Jacksonville, FL	6-month contract	Not disclosed	113
Barista	Operations (G&A)	Austin, TX	Permanent, onsite	Not disclosed	114

The Barista role in Austin is notable: it is the first non-data-center, non-engineering role xAI has posted on Greenhouse in months, and it carries an ITAR restriction (U.S. persons only), which is unusual for a food-service position. The four Jacksonville/Conroe roles are all temporary, covering servers, networking gear, power and cooling equipment logistics. 110 114

Mistral AI — 4 new roles

Mistral AI (Paris-based AI company building open-source and frontier models including Mistral Large and Le Chat) confirmed all 4 new roles via the Lever API — the most reliable date source in this tracker. Zero salary disclosures, consistent with Mistral's policy. 115

Role	Dept	Location	Remote	Seniority	Salary	Posted	Apply
Senior WAN & ISP Engineer — Paris Region	Engineering & Infra	Paris, France	Hybrid	Senior (7+ yr)	Not disclosed	Jun 10	116
Technical Support Engineer, Enterprise (APAC)	Engineering & Infra	Singapore	Onsite	Mid-senior (5+ yr)	Not disclosed	Jun 11	117
Senior Commercial Legal Counsel, EMEA	Legal	Paris or London	Onsite	Senior (8–10 yr)	Not disclosed	Jun 14	118
RFP & Bid Manager — AI Solutions	Business	Paris / Abu Dhabi / London / Munich	Hybrid	Mid-senior	Not disclosed	Jun 15	119

Key detail buried in job descriptions:

The Senior Commercial Legal Counsel posting states Mistral's legal team now comprises 30 people across Paris, London, Singapore, and Palo Alto. An older API version of the same posting referenced 6 people. A 5× growth in the legal function — if the current posting is accurate — signals active preparation for EU AI Act compliance requirements and commercial contract scaling. 118

The RFP & Bid Manager role lists Abu Dhabi as a base location, the first Mistral posting to confirm that office. The role targets multi-million-euro public sector AI contracts in UAE, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, and broader Gulf markets. 119

The Singapore Technical Support Engineer role is Mistral's first APAC technical support hire, building out L2/L3 support for the region. Benefits listed include equity, 10.83€/day meal vouchers, gym access, mobility pass, full health insurance, parental leave, and visa sponsorship. 117

Hiring signal analysis

차트를 불러오는 중…

FDE is a real pattern now. Forward Deployed Engineers — technical staff embedded directly with enterprise customers — appeared at OpenAI (Forward Deployed Security Engineer, Washington DC, clearance required), Anthropic (Applied AI Security Architect, EMEA), and Cohere (Engineering Manager, FDE Infrastructure, NORAM) in a single week. This is the third consecutive week this pattern has appeared across labs. The implication for job seekers: if you have customer-facing technical deployment experience and want to work at a frontier lab, this specific function is expanding fast and is not overly represented in the applicant pool.

Salary transparency splits clearly by lab. Anthropic disclosed salary on 87% of deep-dived roles (13/15), OpenAI on 77% (17/22), and Google DeepMind on 89% of US roles (8/9). Meta disclosed salary on 25% (5/20) via aggregators, not directly on job pages. Cohere, xAI, and Mistral disclosed on 0% of listings — a consistent pattern across all three for at least three weeks running.

xAI's engineering hiring pause is now 3 weeks long. Every new xAI role this week involved data center operations, logistics, or facilities — zero research, engineering, or product. Simultaneously, new locations (Jacksonville, Conroe, Austin) suggest physical infrastructure is expanding even as headcount for technical roles appears to have paused or shifted to internal transfers.

DeepMind's Greenhouse is no longer the primary source. All 31 active DeepMind Greenhouse listings date from May 2026 or earlier. Fresh hiring this week came exclusively from Google Careers, pointing to a deliberate channel migration. Job seekers monitoring only Greenhouse will miss active DeepMind opportunities.

Mistral's legal team disclosed 5× growth. The Senior Commercial Legal Counsel posting's reference to a 30-person legal team (up from 6 in prior postings) is the most concrete indicator of corporate scaling velocity Mistral has disclosed in any job description this year. Combined with Abu Dhabi office confirmation and German company mentions in the RFP role, Mistral's geographic and operational footprint is wider than its public profile suggests.
