  • 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
