* What You’ll Do:

**** Focus:
** Contribute to the design of the core architecture of LMMs and building of the infrastructure for training it at scale.
**** Responsibilities:
**** You will contribute to the following activities:
* Design and definition of the architecture of the LMMs, considering different fusion strategies and modality-specific processing.
* Implement, refine, benchmark and optimize model architectures using deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch or Tensor Flow.
* Develop and manage the end-to-end training pipelines, including data loading, preprocessing, and model training. Architect and deploy distributed training workflows, optimizing for performance across cloud GPU fleets.
* Implement distributed training strategies to handle large-scale datasets and models.
* Design and implement methods to fuse knowledge with the multimodal representations within the LMM.
* Experiment with different approaches to enhance the model's understanding and reasoning abilities through knowledge integration.
* Monitor and debug training processes, identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks.
* Collaborate with the knowledge integration engineer to ensure the architecture can accommodate knowledge injection mechanisms.
**** Skills needed:
***** Deep understanding of deep learning principles and architectures (especially transformers).
* Extensive experience with multimodal machine learning concepts and techniques (for example, different fusion methods for text and images). Solid understanding of optimization techniques for large-scale models.
* Strong proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks (PyTorch/Tensor Flow) and model management libraries like HF Transformers.
* Experience with training large multimodal models with distributed training frameworks (for example, Horovod, Mosaic

ML) and GPU fleet management.
* Strong understanding of knowledge representation concepts (for example, knowledge graphs, ontologies).
* Experience with distributed training frameworks and cloud computing platforms (for example, GCP, Azure).New York Pay Range - $220,000 - $260,000 USDCalifornia Pay Range - $220,000 - $260,000 USDIllinois Pay Range - $200,000 - $240,000 USDRemote - USA Range - $200,000 - $240,000 USDThe expected salary range above is applicable if the role is performed from California and may vary for other locations (Colorado, Illinois, New York).
