Sony Research India is driving cutting-edge research and development in various locations around the globe, including laboratories in Japan, the United States, Europe, and Asia. We endeavor to create new technology, products, and services while sustaining Sony Group’s diverse businesses in electronics, entertainment, and financial fields. For our research centre to blaze a trail in the latest technologies, we seek to foster the growth of a diverse pool of research and engineering talent and create a technology talent bank to drive research excellence worldwide. Sony Research India is offering outstanding career opportunities around frontline technologies such as AI and data analytics.

What we are looking for:
• We are looking for a highly motivated individual to work closely with our research scientists on deep research and rapid prototyping with Large Language Models, with a focus on multilingual language understanding, translation, reasoning, and domain adaptation. The intern will investigate how contemporary LLMs can be adapted, analyzed,



and improved for multilingual and entertainment-domain applications, while developing research ideas that can potentially translate into publications, prototypes, and production impact. The role is research-intensive: we are looking for someone who is interested in understanding why models behave the way they do and developing new methods, rather than primarily integrating existing models or running standard fine-tuning pipelines.

What you'll do:
• Conduct research on LLMs for multilingual language understanding and generation, cross-lingual transfer, language interference, model behaviour, and multilingual reasoning particularly across Indian and international languages.
• Explore domain adaptation for entertainment content, including subtitles, dialogues, scripts, and conversational language.
• Explore reasoning and adaptive computation for translation, including when and how additional reasoning or context should be used.
