About the role

TL;DR: Lovable is building the software creation platform that lets people turn ideas into software with plain language. We’re hiring an AI Research Engineer focused on post-training at scale to ship production-ready models quickly. You’ll own the full post-training pipeline—from data curation and training runs through evaluation and deployment—and work across product, agent, and infrastructure teams to translate research into product improvements. Applicants should be able to run post-training jobs on large language models (RFT/RLVR, preference optimization, or similar), write solid production code, and reason about evaluation and deployment in production. Please submit your application in English via our careers portal. What you’ll do: Own Lovable’s post-training lifecycle from data curation and training runs through evaluation and deployment. Apply reinforcement learning, preference optimization, and supervised fine-tuning to improve code generation, user intent reasoning, and agent behavior. Build evaluation and experimentation infrastructure to measure real-world impact, and operate production training systems including GPU orchestration and data pipelines. Collaborate with agent, product, and infrastructure engineers to turn model gains into product improvements. Investigate and resolve failures end-to-end and move research into production within days or weeks. The role emphasizes speed to ship alongside research rigor. About your application: please submit in English via our careers portal.

Job Details

Responsibilities

  • Own the full lifecycle of Lovable's post-training pipeline - from data curation and training runs through evaluation and deployment
  • Apply and adapt reinforcement learning, preference optimization, and supervised fine-tuning methods to make our models better at generating code, reasoning about user intent, and acting as reliable agents
  • Build the evaluation and experimentation infrastructure that tells us whether a model change actually helps users - covering helpfulness, safety, latency, and reliability
  • Develop and operate the production systems that run training jobs at scale, including GPU orchestration and data pipelines
  • Work across team boundaries with our agent, product, and infrastructure engineers to turn model gains into product improvements users can feel
  • Investigate and resolve failures end-to-end - whether the root cause is in a training recipe, a data issue, or a serving regression
  • Read papers, run experiments, and move fast: the goal is to get promising research into production within days or weeks, not months

Requirements

  • You have personally run post-training jobs on large language models - RFT/RLVR, preference optimization, or similar.
  • You can write solid production code.
  • You're fluent in at least one major ML framework (PyTorch, JAX) and comfortable working with distributed training setups and GPU clusters.
  • You understand the math behind preference optimization, reward modeling, and alignment techniques - and can reason about when each approach fits.
  • You've built or significantly contributed to evaluation systems that capture real-world quality, not just benchmark scores.
  • You can trace a model quality regression from user-facing symptoms back through serving, inference, and training - and you enjoy doing it.
  • You want to ship. Research taste matters, but at Lovable the question is always "how fast can we get this to users?"
