• Define research objectives that are informed by practical engineering issues.
• Manage and conduct experiments—design experimental setups, write reusable code, and oversee evaluations and results documentation.
• Adapt conventional machine learning methods to leverage modern parallel environments like distributed clusters, multicore SMP, GPU, and cloud training platforms.
• Collaborate with a distributed team to push project boundaries.
• Contribute to scholarly publications and efforts in open-sourcing.

Required Qualifications

• A Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• At least 3 years of experience in an applied research or development role focused on machine learning and deep learning.
• A solid grasp of machine learning techniques and a proven track record in developing, scaling, and deploying machine learning models, especially in cloud or distributed computing environments.
• Programming expertise in Python with hands-on experience in frameworks like PyTorch.
• Familiarity with software engineering best practices such as version control (Git), code reviews, and CI/CD.

Preferred Qualifications

• An advanced degree (Master’s or PhD) in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a relevant technical field.
• Experience in generative AI or code generation technologies.
• First author publications at prominent peer-reviewed AI conferences like NeurIPS, CVPR, ICML, ICLR, ICCV, and ACL.

Benefits

• Competitive salary and benefits package, including Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision).
• Retirement Plan options (401k, IRA).
• Generous Paid Time Off, including uncapped vacation, plus sick days and public holidays.
• Flexible hybrid work arrangement to best support your work-life balance.
• Relocation assistance available for qualifying candidates.
