You'll be their operational counterpart - the person who absorbs what the team is working on and makes it legible to the team, to leadership, and to adjacent teams. This isn't a coordination role. It's a research partnership role - embedded with the team, fluent in what they're building, and operationally responsible for everything that isn't the science itself. The ideal candidate is someone who is genuinely excited about code modelsg. You play with them. You have opinions about what makes them feel good to use. You read the papers because you want to, not because you have to. A research background is a plus but not required - what matters is that you care about this domain and can hold your own in a room full of researchers working on it.   WHAT WILL YOU DO * Research Visibility: Partner with the team to maintain a shared, accessible view of their ongoing work - what's in flight, where it's heading, what's ready to hand off. Make the research legible to adjacent teams and leadership without pulling researchers into status work. * Operational Partnership: Be the team's operational partner. Handle the coordination, resourcing, and cross-team conversations that would otherwise sit on researchers' plates - so the team can stay focused on the science. * Research-to-release: Own the operational path from research work to release candidate for code and vibe workstreams. Partner with the release function to ensure the team's work flows cleanly into Mistral's release machinery. * Visibility & Communication Cadence: Code and vibe research connects to many other efforts across the organization. Keep these interfaces clean and high-signal, so the team's work integrates naturally with the wider science org. * Strategic Communication: Translate the team's work into clear, well-timed updates for leadership and adjacent teams - what's being built, what matters, what's coming next.   ABOUT YOU * Genuine enthusiasm for code models and coding assistants - you play with them, push them, have opinions about them * Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience * 3+ years of experience in technical program management, operations, or research coordination * Strong analytical skills; comfortable working in ambiguity and shaping it into structure * Ability to engage substantively with research work and build real credibility with technical teams * Excellent written and verbal communication; able to translate technical detail into clarity for different audiences Nice to have criteria/ would be ideal if you have/are:   * Experience in research-heavy or ML/AI organizations * Familiarity with code generation, coding agents, software engineering benchmarks, or related research areas * Hands-on experience with modern coding tools - you're a user, not just an observer * Track record of building systemic processes from the ground up * Comfort working in fast-paced, high-ambiguity environments where priorities shift quickly   WHY JOIN US? * Shape how frontier AI is built and released: You’ll design and operate the systems that connect scientific discovery to real-world deployment - ensuring our work scales with clarity, reliability, and speed * Work inside the Science OS: Join a team building the operational backbone of Mistral’s science organization - where structure meets creativity and processes evolve through use, not bureaucracy * Drive visible, high-leverage impact: Your work will sit at the intersection of research, engineering, and leadership - turning complexity into alignment and enabling confident, data-informed decisions across the company   Benefits   France 💰 Competitive cash salary and equity 🥕 Food : Daily lunch vouchers 🥎 Sport : Monthly contribution to a Gympass subscription  🚴 Transportation : Monthly contribution to a mobility pass 🧑‍⚕️ Health : Full health insurance for you and your family 🍼 Parental : Generous parental leave policy 🌎 Visa sponsorship   By applying, you agree to our Applicant Privacy Policy.
