Factories, power plants, buildings, etc. operate the same they've operated for decades — because the controls programming is hard-coded. Phaidra creates AI-powered control systems for the industrial sector, enabling industrial facilities to automatically learn and improve over time. We enable domain experts (our users) to configure the AI control systems (i.e. agents) without writing code. From achieving superhuman performance with DeepMind's AlphaGo , to reducing the energy required to cool Google's Data Centers by 40%, we deeply understand AI and how to apply it in production for massive impact.
Phaidra is based in the USA, but we are 100% remote with no physical office. Research Scientists at Phaidra lead our efforts in developing novel algorithmic architecture towards the end goal of bringing intelligent control systems to industrial sector.
Having pioneered research in the world's leading academic and industrial labs as PhDs, post-docs or professors, Research Scientists join Phaidra to work collaboratively within and across research fields.




Drawing on expertise from a variety of disciplines including model-based reinforcement learning, planning and optimal control, deep learning, world models, and safe reinforcement learning, our Research Scientists are at the forefront of groundbreaking research and applying it to real-world industrial control systems.
Design, implement, and evaluate model-based reinforcement learning agents — including planning-based controllers (MPC, MPPI) — and the software prototypes needed to deploy them on real industrial control systems.
Develop learned dynamics and world models (learned surrogates) that generalize across systems, including the training pipelines — pretraining, curriculum learning, active/adversarial learning, and fine-tuning — needed to make them reliable for planning and control.
Research and implement methods for e.g. safe RL, constrained control, scenario planning and Bayesian RL, to develop agents that satisfy safe
