Research Engineer, Code RL (Reinforcement Learning)Active$500K

The opportunity

We're hiring for the Code RL team within the RL organization. As a Research Engineer, you'll advance our models' ability to write, edit, test, debug, and ship real software — end to end, on real codebases, with real tools — and to do it correctly, fast, and safely.

What you'll do

  • Developing systems that enable models to use computers effectively

  • Advancing code generation through reinforcement learning

  • Pioneering fundamental RL research for large language models

  • Building scalable RL infrastructure and training methodologies

  • Enhancing model reasoning capabilities

  • Have strong software-engineering skills and deep Python expertise, including async/concurrent programming

What they're looking for

  • Are comfortable owning systems end to end and debugging across the stack
  • Can balance research exploration with engineering implementation, and engage: rigorously in shaping experimental design and interpreting results
  • Care about code quality, testing, and performance
  • Are passionate about the potential impact of AI and are committed to developing safe and beneficial systems
