About the role
Develop multi-agent and RL strategies. Help build multi-agent and reinforcement learning strategies for agentic code generation and tool use, and turn them into research prototypes integrated with our code generation platform. Build evaluation suites and dashboards. Help build comprehensive evaluation suites — task specifications, benchmarks, and performance dashboards — that tell us honestly how agentic and sequential-decision systems are actually performing.
What they're looking for
- You'll spend your residency embedded with the team advancing agentic LLMs and reinforcement learning at Normal Computing — designing experiments, building agents, and creating the evaluations that tell us whether any of it actually works
More about this role
Normal is an applied AI company solving the hardest problems in AI and silicon. We build foundational hardware and software for the semiconductor industry, critical AI infrastructure, and the broader systems that power our world, in partnership with the world's most advanced institutions. We work as one team across New York City, Silicon Valley (Mountain View), London, Copenhagen, and Seoul.
The AI Research Residency is Normal Computing's flagship program for exceptional researchers and engineers who want to work at the frontier of agentic AI. Residents join a small, hand-picked cohort with a dedicated research mentor, direct access to the team building our agentic code generation platform, and a clear arc from onboarding through publication.
Every residency is built around two milestones that mark you as part of something bigger than a single project: a research paper co-authored with our team, and a company-wide research colloquium where you present your findings to the full Normal Computing organization. You'll leave with a body of published, presented work, and a standing as one of the earliest residents to help define what this program becomes.
You'll spend your residency...
