Responsibilities

Research model architecture, optimization, and scaling methods to improve the capability and efficiency of large models.
Design baselines and controlled experiments to evaluate architectural and optimization changes at larger scales.
Develop training recipes covering learning-rate schedules, context lengths, token budgets, and compute allocation.
Investigate mixture-of-experts architectures, hybrid attention, and long-context training.
Diagnose loss spikes, divergence, and numerical issues while distinguishing modeling problems from infrastructure failures.
Implement research ideas, profile training workloads, and debug model behavior and distributed training systems.

Requirements

Hands-on experience training large models and balancing model quality, compute cost, and training stability.
Strong experimental judgment and experience designing controlled experiments to distinguish competing hypotheses.
Experience applying scaling laws to experiment design and evaluating extrapolations from smaller training runs.
Experience implementing and debugging distributed training workloads across GPU clusters.
Strong engineering skills in research implementation, training-workload profiling, and model-behavior debugging.
A record of improving model quality or training efficiency through research, engineering, open-source contributions, or production work.
Preferred experience includes mixture-of-experts routing, sparse architectures, long-context methods, data mixtures, curriculum, tokenizer design, kernel-level optimization, mixed-precision training, or efficiency work for constrained inference targets such as on-device systems.
