Research Intern RL & Post-Training Systems, Turbo (Fall 2026)

About the Role

The Turbo Research team investigates how to make post-training and reinforcement learning for large language models efficient, scalable, and reliable. Our work sits at the intersection of RL algorithms, inference systems, and large-scale experimentation, where the cost and structure of inference dominate overall training efficiency and shape what learning algorithms are practical.

As a research intern, you will study RL and post-training methods whose performance and scalability are tightly coupled to inference behavior, co-designing algorithms and systems rather than treating them independently. Projects aim to unlock new regimes of experimentation—larger models, longer rollouts, and more complex evaluations—by rethinking how inference, scheduling, and training interact.
