The role involves contributing to every stage of the post-training process:

Formulate hypotheses for a use case

Define data collection and annotation

Build evaluations of model capabilities

Apply SFT, advanced reward modeling, RL techniques, and distillation to develop and improve the post-training recipe

Execute experiments, validate results, and communicate findings to the broader team

Bonus: Experience in quantization, on-device models and SLM (Small Language Model)

Minimum Qualifications

MS in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

Minimum 4+ years of research experience in Multi-Modal LLM training and evaluation

Proven track record in multimodal SFT plus at least one of distillation, preference optimization, or online RL, backed by shipped models or rigorous experiments

Strong programming skills in Python and at least one deep learning, framework, such as JAX or PyTorch.

Ability to build intuition from a problem statement and translate it into dataset requirements, neural network design, and loss functions.
