The Summer 2027 PhD AI Research Infrastructure, RL Post-Training Intern will join the research team to develop and optimize infrastructure for the post-training of large language and multimodal models. The role involves building scalable systems for rollout generation, inference, reward computation, and policy updates while improving distributed training efficiency, reliability, and resource utilization. The intern will design interfaces for researchers to evaluate new algorithms, build tools for experiment configuration and monitoring, and profile end-to-end pipelines to resolve performance bottlenecks. Required skills include Python, PyTorch, and expertise in reinforcement learning, RLHF/RLAIF, or preference optimization. Candidates should possess experience with multi-GPU workloads, parallelism strategies like tensor or pipeline parallelism, and distributed communication. The work focuses on creating production-quality infrastructure for large-scale inference and training workflows within the AI research ecosystem.
