[Hiring] Research Engineer, Language - Generative AI @Meta

Role Description

Meta is seeking a Research Engineer to join our Large Language Model (LLM) Research team. We conduct focused research and engineering to build state-of-the-art LLMs, which we often open-source, like our team’s recent Llama 2. We are looking for strong engineers who have a background in generative AI and NLP, with experience in areas like:

• Language model evaluation
• Data processing for pre-training and fine-tuning
• Responsible LLMs
• LLM alignment
• Reinforcement learning for language model tuning
• Efficient training and inference
• Multilingual and multimodal modeling

Responsibilities include:

• Design methods, tools, and infrastructure to push forward the state of the art in large language models
• Define research goals informed by practical engineering concerns
• Contribute to experiments, including designing experimental details, writing reusable code, running evaluations, and organizing results
• Adapt standard machine learning methods to best exploit modern parallel environments (e.g. distributed clusters, multicore SMP, and GPU)
• Work with a large and globally distributed team
• Contribute to publications and open-sourcing efforts

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• Research experience in machine learning, deep learning, and/or natural language processing
• Experience with developing machine learning models at scale from inception to business impact
• Programming experience in Python and hands-on experience with frameworks such as PyTorch
• Exposure to architectural patterns of large scale software applications

Requirements

• A PhD in AI, computer science, data science, or related technical fields
• Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• First author publications at peer-reviewed AI conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, CVPR, ICML, ICLR, ICCV, and ACL)
• Direct experience in generative AI and LLM research

Benefits

$88.46/hour to $257,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits
