TCHO Flavor Lab Manager & R&D Tech
TCHO Chocolate 3.2
Research and development engineer job in Berkeley, CA
The Opportunity: The Palate of a Chef, the Mind of a Scientist
TCHO is looking for a rare professional to serve as the tactical engine of our research and production. This individual will fill a high-impact role that bridges the gap between creative sensory exploration and technical production. This is a hands-on role at our factory, responsible for tending the entire lifecycle of our chocolate. This begins with the cacao beans being grown around the world by our farmer partners, to the final production of high-end chocolate and confections at our production facility in Berkeley. We are seeking a maker who can manage complex data and production schedules while maintaining a disciplined focus on creativity and flavor.
This position is 100% onsite due to the hands-on nature of the role, including production, sensory evaluation, laboratory work, and small-batch confectionery manufacturing.
1. Sensory Mastery & Tasting
Daily Analysis: Lead disciplined daily sensory panels of raw cacao liquors, experimental batches, finished chocolate, and confections to ensure every product meets TCHO standards.
Raw Material Selection: Participate in the selection and sensory analysis of all raw materials, including cocoa beans, liquor, powder, butter, and inclusions such as nuts or vanilla.
Final Sign-off: Provide sensory sign-off for final products coming off the line to ensure manufacturing quality and consistency.
2. The “Source” & Laboratory Management
Bean Sample Management: Manage the intake of cacao samples from global partners, including roasting, winnowing, and grinding micro-batches to evaluate fermentation quality and genetic potential.
Flavor Lab Oversight: Manage daily operations of the flagship TCHO Flavor Lab space (one of only 12 worldwide).
Operational Upkeep: Oversee lab organization, cleaning, sample retention, and restocking of laboratory supplies and equipment.
3. Production, Formulation & Retail Confectionery
Formula Creation: Develop and manage proprietary daily production formulas used by the manufacturing team.
Retail Confectionery Production: Act as a Confectioner for TCHO Retail, responsible for creating small-batch and small-lot confections for retail customers, including hand-crafted and limited-run items.
Efficiency & Scalability: Support factory operations by optimizing run times, flush materials, FIFO practices, and small-batch scalability.
SOP Compliance: Ensure all product SOPs are followed, including requirements related to cross-contamination, Organic, Kosher, and Fair Trade certifications.
4. New Product Development (NPD)
Dream-to-Reality: Translate creative product concepts into consistent, repeatable production.
Prototyping: Execute hands-on prototyping and produce sales and retail samples, including chocolate formulas, plant-based ganache, enrobed items, panned goods, and other confections.
Scaling: Move products from lab-scale concepts to small industrial and retail-ready production.
Who You Are
Palate-Driven: You possess an advanced ability to articulate flavor and a deep interest learning how the magic of chocolate comes to life.
Analytical: You love a good system and can track R&D data and formulas with precision to keep projects on a professional timeline.
Technically Grounded: You likely have a background in Food Science, Pastry, or Confectionery and know your way around the bakery and confectionery world.
Onsite & Flexible: This is not a desk job. You are based at our Berkeley HQ and willing to work weekends to keep the lab and production cycles moving.
Skills & Abilities
Bachelors' degree or equivalent
Minimum 3 years working in pastry, confectionary or chocolate industry,
Demonstrated leadership experience of teaching and developing teams within food industry.
Excellent writing, reading and communication skills
Spanish fluency is a major plus.
Ability to transport and move 50-pound handloads
Must be able to remain in a stationary position for entire shift

Research and development engineer job in Fremont, CA
A fast-growing, deeply technical AI company is looking for a ResearchEngineer to join a small, high-performing team building the next generation of agentic LLM systems for software development. This is an opportunity to work at the frontier of AI, helping design and evaluate models that can understand, write, and reason about complex codebases.
We are looking for someone who is passionate about AI for code, obsessed with understanding how LLMs behave, and excited to help push the boundaries of autonomous software engineering.
What You'll Work On
Design and run large-scale LLM evaluations, benchmarks, and experiments - particularly for code understanding and generation tasks.
Build tools, datasets, and research frameworks that measure LLM reasoning, reliability, grounding, and hallucination reduction.
Collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to improve model performance across real-world developer workflows.
Work with frontier LLMs (across multiple providers) to analyze behavior, provide structured feedback, and drive improvements in accuracy, reliability, and autonomy.
Prototype new capabilities for long-horizon agentic systems, including retrieval, planning, debugging, and automated coding workflows.
Contribute to model fine-tuning and alignment work, including SFT, LoRA, DPO, or RLHF pipelines.
Build production-quality research tools and evaluation pipelines that scale to real engineering environments.
What We're Looking For
3+ years of experience in AI/ML engineering, researchengineering, or similar fields.
Strong coding fundamentals and comfort working in production environments (Python preferred).
Hands-on experience with LLMs (training, fine-tuning, benchmarking, or evaluation).
Experience with transformer architectures, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), or reasoning-heavy LLM workflows.
Deep interest in code generation, AI developer tools, or program synthesis (professional or personal projects).
Ability to think rigorously about model behavior, failure cases, and reliability.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, highly collaborative environment with end-to-end ownership.
Bonus Points
Experience with AI systems for code: program synthesis, automated debugging, static analysis, code search, etc.
Prior work with agentic or multi-step reasoning systems.
Contributions to evaluation frameworks, benchmarks, or open-source model tooling.
Background in compilers, programming languages, distributed systems, or developer tooling.
Research experience at top universities, labs, or advanced ML teams.
Why This Role Is Exciting
Work directly with cutting-edge LLMs and agentic tooling.
Influence the direction of an emerging AI product with real-world impact.
Solve some of the hardest problems in AI today: evaluation, grounding, reasoning, and autonomous coding.
Join an elite team with deep experience in LLMs, distributed systems, and developer productivity tools.
Massive opportunity for ownership, impact, and career growth.
If you're passionate about AI for software engineering, love solving deep technical problems, and want to work at the frontier of LLM research, we'd love to hear from you.
