- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, or a related field
- Python programming
- Neural network model development, including experience building or fine-tuning large models (e.g., recommendation systems)
- Model performance profiling and optimization
- Developing scalable ML evaluation pipelines
- Multimodal model training and data pipeline development
- Task-specific fine-tuning and distillation methods
- Training or experimentation with Transformer, Diffusion, Graph, Contrastive, or Genetic models
- ML platform engineering at scale, preferably on GCP
- Evaluation framework design and implementation
- Experience working in production environments with distributed training or inference
- Strong technical foundation in machine learning and systems
- Demonstrated ownership of complex ML development workflows
- Collaborative mindset and comfort working across teams
- Curiosity and enthusiasm for exploring a wide range of ML architectures and training techniques
- Excellent communication and documentation skills
