AI Research Scientist, Vllm (vision Large Language Models) - Generative AI

Meta Meta · Big Tech · Sunnyvale, CA +2

Meta is seeking an AI Research Scientist specializing in Vision Large Language Models (VLLM) for their Monetization organization. The role involves developing scalable ML/AI technologies for ads ranking and next-generation platforms, focusing on cutting-edge research, deep learning algorithms, and adapting methods for parallel environments. The position requires a PhD in a relevant technical field and a strong publication record.

What you'd actually do

  1. Develop highly scalable classifiers and tools leveraging Machine Learning, data regression, and rules-based models
  2. Suggest, collect, and synthesize requirements to create an effective feature roadmap
  3. Adapt standard Machine Learning methods to best exploit modern parallel environments (e.g., distributed clusters, multicore SMP, and GPU)
  4. Lead and contribute to cutting-edge research that results in industry-leading tech demos and/or publications
  5. Collaborate closely with cross-functional partners and contribute to Meta's research product development
