Frontier Agents Intern (Fall 2026)

About The Role Agents team investigates how to build, align and scale frontier AI systems that can tackle complex, multi‑step tasks and workflows across text and speech, with a particular focus on agentic and scientific domains. Our work sits at the intersection of agent capabilities, human‑computer interaction, and infrastructure—from designing post‑training methods for agentic behavior to developing evaluation frameworks for open‑ended tasks where traditional metrics fall short. Responsibilities Research and implement novel techniques in one or more of our focus areas Design and conduct rigorous experiments to validate hypotheses Document findings in scientific publications and blog posts Communicate the plans, progress, and results of projects to the broader team Requirements Currently pursuing a Masters or Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Information Science, or a related field Publications at leading ML, NLP, or speech conferences or journals (such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, *ACL, EMNLP, Interspeech) Strong knowledge of Machine Learning and Deep Learning fundamentals Experience with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, JAX, etc.) Understanding of how LLMs work Strong programming skills in Python Familiarity with Transformer architectures and recent developments in foundation models Example Research Directions Training, developing, and evaluating frontier models, especially in the domain of agentic tasks and workflows Designing and curating datasets for frontier agents alignment and post‑training Studying failure modes and developing safety paradigms for agentic behavior Researching new recipes (for RL or test‑time scaling) for self‑learning and long‑context tasks completion Building agents that act on spoken input to carry out complex, multi‑step tasks Developing ML infrastructure that can power agent operations at scale Internship Program Details Our fall internship program spans 12 to 16 weeks where you’ll have the opportunity to work with industry‑leading engineers building a cloud from the ground up and possibly contribute to influential open source projects. Our internship dates are September 14th to December 18th. Compensation We offer competitive compensation, housing stipends, and other competitive benefits. The estimated US hourly rate for this role is $58—$63 an hour. Our hourly rates are determined by location, level and role. Individual compensation will be determined by experience, skills, and job‑related knowledge. Equal Opportunity Together AI is an Equal Opportunity Employer and is proud to offer equal employment opportunity to everyone regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, veteran status, and more. #J-18808-Ljbffr Together AI
