About the role

  • As an AI Research Engineer at Normal, you will push the frontier of agentic LLMs and reinforcement learning for our agentic code generation tool.
  • You'll write production-quality research code and work closely with engineering to ship improvements to customers.
  • Field Awareness: Stay current on LLM agents, RL (offline/online, RLHF/RLAIF), constrained decoding, and program synthesis.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement multi-agent and RL approaches for agentic code generation and tool use.
  • Build research prototypes that integrate with our platform; collaborate to productionize wins.
  • Acquire and curate datasets from PDFs, logs, and tables; generate synthetic data where appropriate; maintain data cards and licensing.
  • You'll design and run experiments, build agents, curate datasets from complex technical documents such as chip specifications, and create rigorous evaluations.
  • Agent & RL Research: Design and implement multi-agent and RL approaches for agentic code generation and tool use.
  • Research-to-Product: Build research prototypes that integrate with our platform; collaborate to productionize wins.
  • Data Curation: Acquire and curate datasets from PDFs, logs, and tables; generate synthetic data where appropriate; maintain data cards and licensing.
  • Comfortable with data acquisition and curation from documents and logs; good instincts about data quality and licenses

Requirements

  • Leadership is not required here
  • Demonstrated ability to turn research into working systems
  • Experience with offline RL from tool traces or human corrections
  • Familiarity with semiconductor/chip domains or other complex technical specs

Nice to have

  • PhD in CS/AI/ML (or equivalent research experience) with publications ideally in multi-agent RL, agentic AI, or RL for language/code
  • Strong Python and ML framework experience (PyTorch preferred

Compensation

  • $10k-$100k
