What You'll Do

  • Invent and deploy state‑of‑the‑art machine learning algorithms

  • Extensive experience developing, implementing and training state‑of‑the‑art deep learning models using multiple GPUs and nodes if necessary for large language models with frameworks such as PyTorch, JAX, etc.
  • Ability to create high‑quality machine learning research, as demonstrated through first‑author publications at top‑tier conferences and journals (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP, SIGIR, AAAI, NEJM AI, JAMIA, npj Digital Medicine, arXiv)
  • Understanding of recent and relevant AI / ML research trends and ability to quickly assess the quality of published ML research
  • Ability and desire to translate research into production
  • Ability to communicate clearly, as evidenced by blog posts, conference talks, published research papers, etc.
