Research Engineer Intern role focused on designing, training, and evaluating LLM-centric systems with responsibilities including implementation, experimentation, and benchmarking.

About the company

  • At Hiverge, our mission is to build algorithmic superintelligence: an AI discovery engine that automatically writes algorithms for the most critical optimisation problems.
  • Our founding team is composed of world-class researchers from Google DeepMind and University of Cambridge, having co-developed AlphaTensor, FunSearch, and Nobel-prize winning AlphaFold. At Hiverge, you will be working with the brightest minds in AI, algorithms, and mathematics.
  • If you’re passionate about AI and eager to shape transformative technologies, we’d love to hear from you.

Requirements

  • Masters degree in Computer Science, Engineering, related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Strong coding skills in Python and experience with PyTorch/JAX and modern LLM tooling for inference and fine‑tuning.
  • Experience in applied research engineering, demonstrated by impactful academic projects or internships in LLMs, search/RL, or compilers/verification.
  • Exposure to evaluation frameworks, unit/property‑based testing, and performance profiling.

Other

  • This role designs, trains, and evaluates LLM‑centric systems. The work blends implementation, experimentation, and benchmarking.
  • As a Research Engineer Intern you will:
  • Support the development of scalable experimentation foundations with strong reproducibility and observability
  • Help create and improve robust prompt and code-selection tooling.
  • Assist in optimizing our system’s inference and infrastructure for better efficiency.
  • Work with the team (ML engineers and researchers) to implement new ideas.
  • Engage with the research community to advance the state of algorithmic discovery.
  • Contributions to open research or community tooling.
  • Familiarity with algorithm design, and practical understanding of reinforcement learning, evolutionary methods and optimization methods.
  • We offer competitive compensation and a stimulating work environment, with the opportunity to contribute to the future of generative AI. Outstanding interns may be considered for a full-time Research Engineer position upon completion of the internship.
