About Deeptune

Deeptune builds training gyms for AI agents. We work with frontier AI labs to help them train the next generation of agentic models.

We're backed by world-class investors and are closing our Series A in the coming weeks, have a world-class founding team, and have crossed $10M ARR in the last six months, with plans to 10x in 2026.

training gym n /ˈtreɪnɪŋ dʒɪm/

A simulation environment where AI can practice doing tasks (like coding or making a spreadsheet) so it can learn and get better over time.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Strategic Projects Lead (SPL) to scale and optimize our data business. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone energized by ambiguity, rapid iteration, and building systems that operate at scale.

As an SPL, you will own the end-to-end production of RL training data inside our environments – from customer specifications through final delivery. Your decisions will directly impact data quality, operational efficiency, revenue, and margins.

What you’ll do
  • Own complex, end-to-end data pipelines from customer requirements to final output
    Identify and implement automation and workflow improvements to increase throughput and quality

  • Partner closely with engineering, product, and leadership during a period of rapid growth

  • Recruit, manage, and deploy high-skill talent across AI data projects.

SPLs are obsessed with both quality and velocity. You’ll combine analytical rigor, quantitative thinking, strong judgment, and creative problem-solving to move data cleanly through complex systems – often under imperfect information.

About You

You’re an entrepreneurial operator who’s comfortable getting deep into the weeds and taking full ownership of outcomes. You’re excited by high-impact work and motivated to accelerate the development of agentic AI.

Ideally, you have:
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a data-driven approach to improving systems and processes

  • Solid technical fluency (experience with SQL, Python, or similar tools preferred)

  • Experience training, coaching, and managing fast-moving teams

  • The ability to work cross-functionally and communicate complex issues to non-technical stakeholders

  • An entrepreneurial mindset to build from scratch, move quickly, and prioritize

  • A genuine interest in AI / ML systems

You should apply if:
  • You thrive in ambiguity

  • You love attacking challenging problems

  • You want real ownership and accountability

  • You are excited to work in person, 5 days a week, from our Union Square office
