Responsibilities
Turing builds large-scale datasets and reinforcement learning (RL) environments that power post-training for the world’s leading AI labs and enterprises, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Microsoft AI, Amazon, Apple, and many more. We create RL environments to evaluate and improve our customers' models on complex, long-range, multi-step workflows across high-GDP-value domains such as Finance, Sales, Retail, Developer Tools, Collaboration, Customer Experience.
The environments vary depending on the model capability being evaluated / improved, a few examples of environment types are listed here:
Environments for Software Engineering / coding agents
UI-Environments for Computer-Use/Browser-Use agents
MCP-based Environments for general function-calling agents across various enterprise and consumer applications
