If I apply for a new (vertical) role internally at my firm within a different department, is it out of line to negotiate for a signing bonus or other forms of compensation (RSU) other than base salary?

Give it a shot. Ask.
You’d only get one chance to ask. If not now, definitely not later.

Some of my new hires asked for way more than I could give them. But I still raises to HR. We met in the middle.

The topics you mention are difficult to ask inappropriate questions about, especially with HR. Just ask, the worst they can do is say they can't tell you

It'd be more sensitive if you were taking to the hiring manager, and even then you'd just want to massage the message so you don't come off as being drive by nothing but greed. Still wouldn't be inappropriate

RSUs definitely, assuming others at similar levels would get those. Signing bonus, nice try ...

update. I was contacted by HR and have a follow up question for you all:

Is it inappropriate to ask HR what the salary range is for this position right away?
