THE ROLE:

The AI Models team is looking for exceptional machine learning scientists and engineers to explore and innovate on training and inference techniques for large language models (LLMs), large multimodal models (LMMs), image/video generation and other foundation models as well as self-evolving agents on top of these. You will be part of a world-class research and development team focussing on productive and scalable pre-training, instruction tuning, alignment and optimization. As an early member of the team, you can help us shape the direction and strategy to fulfill this key charter.

THE PERSON:

This role is for you if you are passionate about reading through the latest literature, coming up with novel ideas, and implementing those through high quality code to push the boundaries on scale and performance.



The ideal candidate will have both theoretical expertise and hands-on experience with developing and optimizing LLMs, LMMs, and/or diffusion models.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Improve upon the state-of-the-art in Generative AI model architectures and their compatibility on AMD accelerators

Accelerate the training and inference speed through various optimizations.

Build AI agents to automatically write and evaluate efficient kernels and code

Drive continuous improvement of infrastructure and development ecosystem

Publish your research at top-tier conferences, workshops and/or through technical blogs.

Engage with academia and open-source ML communities.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

Strong development and debugging skills in Python.
