What You'll Do

  • Invent and deploy state‑of‑the‑art machine learning algorithms
  • Share insights and breakthroughs through publications in top‑tier conferences, journals, blog posts, and other mediums to showcase your work
  • Survey and share relevant AI / ML research and emerging technologies within the company to help others stay abreast of important trends

You can explain the differences between SwiGLU vs. sigmoid, GRUs vs. transformers vs SSMs, encoders vs. decoders, masked language models vs. autoregressive language models, tensor parallelism vs pipeline parallelism vs data parallelism, gloo vs mpi vs nccl, CUDA, Triton, etc.
  • 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.
  • Nice To Haves

  • Ph.D. (or Master’s degree with 3+ years experience) in Computer Science, Biomedical Informatics, Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with an AI / ML focus
  • Python
