TL;DR · Multimodal AI Applied Scientist, SIML - ISE

The Multimodal AI Applied Scientist, SIML - ISE joins the System Intelligence and Machine Learning team to drive multimodal scene understanding and human-centric device interaction. In this role, you will architect, train, and deploy large-scale multimodal LLMs designed to perceive complex environments and understand nuanced human behaviors. Your daily work involves owning the entire generative model lifecycle, from novel architecture design to production deployment. You will build capabilities for retrieving insights from historical context, handling interleaved streaming data, and designing memory systems for long-term adaptation. Key technical requirements include expert knowledge of large auto-regressive transformer models, multi-modal encoders, and representation learning. You must demonstrate strong programming skills in Python to develop robust ML models and APIs integrated into production pipelines for resource-constrained devices.

What you'll do

  • Design, train, and deploy large-scale multimodal LLMs across the entire model lifecycle.
  • Architect multimodal scene understanding technology using visual and audio data.
  • Implement and demonstrate novel, human-centric user experiences using large foundation models.
  • Develop ML models and APIs for integration into production pipelines and training infrastructure.
  • Model user behaviors and preferences through device and environmental interactions.
  • Design memory systems for long-term adaptation and reasoning across diverse temporal horizons.
  • Learn semantically rich representations for open-ended downstream applications.

What we're looking for

  • PhD or MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field with a focus on machine learning.
  • Strong research skills with first-author publications in top-tier ML conferences.
  • Expert-level knowledge of SOTA in large auto-regressive transformer models, multi-modal encoders, and representation learning.
  • Experience with multimodal large language models (LLMs).
  • Strong programming skills in Python, maintaining ML code bases grounded in software engineering principles.
  • PhD in Machine Learning (preferred).
  • Proven track record of deploying innovative ML technologies in production (preferred).
  • Familiarity with developing ML for resource-constrained devices (preferred).
