This is for a 2025 summer internship with the following start dates: May - August or June - September for quarter system schools.

IBM Research is looking for strong BS, MS and PhD level interns to join our team in 2025 to work in the area of large scale langage models. Our team directly contributes to the construction of IBM's largest scale AI models as well as the software supporting them,  and we have a range of possible internship projects in the general areas of model architecture, analysis, training and alignment techniques, reasoning and planning, tool use, multilinguality, curation of challenging benchmarks and  human preference data, structured input and output and programming models for LLM applications.

In this role, you are expected to develop high quality software to support novel AI model architectures, training and evaluation technologies, new synthetic data generation and transformation techniques, tools for interacting and collecting data from experts, and LLM application development frameworks, among possible projects. Contributions to the open source are a potential desirable outcome of projects in this space.
