Responsibilities
- Conduct end-to-end research and engineering on vision-language models across training, evaluation, and optimization.
- Design and implement post-training pipelines using supervised fine-tuning, knowledge distillation, and reinforcement learning from human feedback.
- Curate, filter, balance, and maintain multimodal datasets for domain-specific tasks.
- Adapt and optimize models for resource-constrained environments and real-world deployment at scale.
- Build evaluation frameworks and benchmarks for model performance, robustness, and task success.
- Build and scale training workflows across distributed GPU infrastructure and resolve pipeline bottlenecks.
- Contribute to open-source multimodal AI models, datasets, and tooling.
- Translate current multimodal learning research into practical model improvements and publish findings where applicable.
Requirements
- Degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field; an MS or PhD is preferred.
- Strong experience with multimodal post-training workflows, including supervised fine-tuning, knowledge distillation, and reinforcement learning from feedback.
- Hands-on experience with parameter-efficient fine-tuning and distributed training frameworks.
- Demonstrated ability to build and improve vision-language models with measurable benchmark or real-world results.
- Experience adapting models for resource-constrained environments.
- Proven open-source contributions in multimodal AI on GitHub or Hugging Face.
- Publications at leading AI conferences such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, CVPR, or ECCV.
Benefits
- Remote work with a globally distributed team.
- Opportunity to work in a small, high-caliber team on multimodal AI research and production deployment.
