Summary

We are seeking an AI/ML Researcher to lead the research and development of large language models (LLMs) solutions. The ideal candidate will have a minimum of 2 years of experience in NLP research and a deep understanding of core LLM components, including LLM modeling, information retrieval, entity-relation extraction, agentic frameworks, and reasoning. The role involves leveraging AI/ML algorithm framework, such as TensorFlow and PyTorch, to develop cutting-edge generative LLM solutions. Responsibilities include designing and conducting scientific experiments, utilizing NLP techniques and LLM core components to develop novel LLM solutions in cloud or on-premises environments. The candidate will also be expected to collaborate with the team, participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and create comprehensive documentation. The ideal candidate should possess a strong foundation in statistical analysis, machine learning, deep learning, generative AI, and text representation techniques. Additionally, the candidate should have excellent communication skills, a strong work ethic, and a passion for delivering high-quality, innovative solutions.

Responsibilities:

• Leading in designing the research and experiment methodology, specifically in LLM core components.
• Conduct independent research and report experiment results, research findings to stakeholders.
• Collaborate with engineering team in various data engineering tasks, including data collection, preprocessing, quality control, and augmentation, to curate high-quality datasets essential for model training,
• Utilize analytical techniques to extract meaningful insights from large datasets
• Communicating regularly with supervisor and Research leads on scientifical progress, insight and research direction.
• Publishing research papers in reputable journals and conferences is valued, it is not a strict requirement for this role.
• Contribute to other program-related projects.
• Collaborate with engineering team to translate researched technology (low TRL) to engineering (high TRL).
• Candidates applying for senior staff positions are expected to mentor and support team members (or cross-team members) in technical advising.

Requirement:

• Masters or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Statistics, Engineering, or related field.
• 2-4 years of experience in research and development, specifically in one or more of the following areas:

1. Natural language processing, specifically in large language model (LLM) core component, e.g., joint entity relation, information retrieval, prompt engineering, reasoning, sentiment analysis, vulnerabilities in LLM, etc.
2. Generative AI, specifically in generating synthetic data.

• Demonstrate an analytical mindset with adept problem-solving skills.
• Keep abreast of the latest advancements in program-related techniques and methodologies,
• Exhibit a strong drive to deliver optimal solutions within tight timelines.
• Strong communication and organizational skills.
• Comprehensive documentation of technical specifications, architectural designs, and best practices.
