What You’ll Work On

We’re building an autonomous driving system capable of navigating Tokyo for 30+ minutes without human intervention.
Our E2E model is evolving into a physical foundation model that unifies physical behavior with world understanding.
You’ll be assigned to a team and project based on your experience and interests.

End-to-End Autonomous Driving Model

Develop E2E models that directly output steering, acceleration, and braking from camera footage. Drive continuous improvements to data and models, integrate distributed training infrastructure, and lead bottleneck analysis and optimization.

Autonomous Driving Group 1|Python, PyTorch, Machine Learning, Reinforcement Learning

VLA / Physical Foundation Model

Research and develop Vision-Language-Action models that unify vision, language, and action. Combine driving capability with multimodal understanding to tackle scenarios previously beyond the reach of autonomous systems. Conference paper submissions encouraged.

Autonomous Driving Group 3|Transformers, Multimodal, Large Language Models

MLOps / Data Pipeline

Automate ML pipelines from model training to deployment (MLflow, Airflow, etc.). Accelerate image and video data processing, develop a 3DGS-based closed-loop simulator, and introduce CI/CD practices.

Autonomous Driving Groups 1 & 3|MLflow, Airflow, Python, CI/CD

Autonomous Driving System / In-Vehicle Development

Build the vehicle and system stack that powers E2E autonomous driving. Implement and optimize for automotive-grade SoCs, support multiple vehicle platforms, manage fleet and OTA updates, and handle ONNX conversion and deployment of PyTorch models.

Autonomous Driving Group 2|C++, Embedded Systems, ONNX, SoC Optimization

GPU Training Infrastructure

Build, operate, and optimize GPU cluster environments at the scale of thousands of GPUs. Develop the infrastructure that enables fast, large-scale training and experimentation — from the latest VLA models to established methods.

Infrastructure Group|Kubernetes, NVIDIA, GPU Infrastructure, Distributed Training

Vehicle Motion Control / Real-World Validation

Design and implement vehicle motion control systems and algorithms. Evaluate and tune control performance using actual vehicles. The code you write today could be running on Tokyo’s public roads tomorrow.

Autonomous Driving Group 2|Control Engineering, Sensor Fusion, Real-World Validation

Always hiring — interns get a fast track to full-time consideration

Turing recruits new graduates year-round. Please indicate your preferred start date when applying. We strongly encourage starting as an intern before joining full-time. Interns who demonstrate strong performance may receive an expedited path through our full-time hiring process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Can I transition from an internship to a full-time role? +
Yes. We have team leads who started as interns and joined full-time as new graduates — Kento Sasaki and Kento Tokuhiro are prime examples. Strong internship performance may earn you an expedited path through our full-time process. We actively encourage starting as an intern before joining full-time.
Q2. What is the compensation range for new graduates? +
Engineer: ¥6M–¥10M / Senior Engineer: ¥10M–¥15M / Principal Engineer: ¥15M–¥20M (all figures include 40 hrs/month of deemed overtime). Final compensation is presented at the time of offer, based on experience and skills. Intern hourly rate: ¥2,500–¥3,500.
Q3. What technical skills are required? +
Required qualifications: alignment with Turing’s mission, experience in team-based development, knowledge or experience in software development or machine learning, and Japanese communication ability. Nice to have: a driver’s license, proficiency in Python/C++ algorithm implementation, Kaggle Master rank or above, papers accepted at international conferences, AtCoder light-blue rank or above, and software development experience in autonomous driving or robotics.
Q4. Where is the office and what are the working hours? +
Our office is at HQ (6-1-1 Heiwajima, Ota-ku, Tokyo — Logistics Building A, 7-min walk from Ryutsu Center Station on the Tokyo Monorail). We operate on flextime with core hours 11:00–15:00 and flexible hours 08:00–11:00 / 15:00–22:00. Commuting by personal car or motorcycle is permitted (transportation allowance provided). Interns are asked to come in at least 3 days per week.
Q5. What does the development environment look like? +
We offer a hardware choice program (for engineers) and an AI development tools stipend, giving you access to the latest tooling. We actively encourage conference paper submissions, and research contributions from both interns and new graduates have already received international recognition.
Q6. Is it possible to balance research with real-world engineering? +
Absolutely. We actively encourage paper submissions to top-tier conferences, and members who joined as interns or new graduates have already had work accepted internationally. At the same time, real-world test drives are always underway — giving you the rare opportunity to pursue both rigorous research and hands-on deployment in parallel.
Q7. What benefits does Turing offer? +
Full social insurance coverage, commuting allowance, subsidized meals (lunch support), hardware choice program, parking allowance (for engineers under 30), book purchase program, AI development tools stipend, 13 days annual paid leave (year one), Life Support Leave (5 days), corporate housing service (launching April 2026), and a casual dress code.

Our goal: full autonomy — a feat no one has achieved.
