Research Engineer / Scientist, Reinforcement Learning

As a Member of Technical Staff, Modeling in Harvey Research, you’ll own how we adapt and improve leading open-weight models for legal work.

We recently post-trained our first model built for legal work, and we’re now building the team to scale up our post-training efforts. You’ll own the post-training recipe across SFT and RL, including reward design and verification for challenging, semi-verifiable legal tasks. You’ll help set the research direction and carry ideas from experiments through training runs to models used by customers. You’ll join a small, high-bar team of hands-on engineers and researchers, where each person owns a large part of the work.
