AI Research Fellowship, (Summer and Fall 2026) is a research-focused program where fellows operate as independent researchers to tackle complex applied machine learning and artificial intelligence problems in local commerce. Participants will own their research direction, utilizing dedicated GPU clusters, internal reinforcement learning stacks, and training pipelines to build high-fidelity simulators, agentic systems for logistics, foundation models for marketplace dynamics, and multimodal understanding tools. The role involves working with real-world operational data regarding merchant operations and consumer behavior to solve challenges in forecasting, pricing, and matching. Candidates must possess strong research instincts or engineering expertise in ML and systems. Key technical areas include reinforcement learning environments, agentic systems, and evaluation methods for models deployed in messy, real-world settings. The fellowship supports publication at top venues like NeurIPS and ICML while addressing core problems in local commerce logistics.
