Job Description:

Management Level Definition:

Contributions include applying developed machine-learning subject matter expertise to solve common and sometimes complex technical problems, and recommending alternatives where necessary. An example is balancing answer quality, latency, cost, energy, and carbon in hybrid LLM systems. Might act as project lead for research prototypes and provide assistance to lower-level professionals and interns. Exercises independent judgment and consults with researchers, engineers, and platform partners to determine the best method for accomplishing work and achieving objectives.

Responsibilities:

Participates as a member of the Hewlett Packard Labs Machine Learning research team, carrying out the investigation, design, development, execution, and implementation of AI tokenomics research to generate new products, technologies, and intellectual property.

Researches and prototypes methods that learn representations of jobs and system states, and that predict workload complexity, answer quality, latency, token demand, energy, and cost.

Develops routing policies, model cascades, and adaptive controllers that select the appropriate LLM, reasoning mode, retrieval strategy, tool chain, and deployment target (local, edge, private cloud, or public cloud) for each job.

Develops methods to assign and enforce token, context, reasoning, and compute budgets based on job difficulty, priority, risk, service-level objectives, and expected business value.

Builds benchmark, telemetry, accounting, and workload-simulation environments.

Conducts controlled experiments, ablation studies, sensitivity analyses, and stress tests across model families, hardware platforms, and deployment environments. Evaluations measure answer quality, routing accuracy, token efficiency, tail latency, throughput, reliability, cost per completed job, energy per token, and carbon per completed job. Communicates results to team members for review and feedback.

Collaborates with internal and external researchers and engineers to validate results, and helps transfer promising technologies into HPE AI platforms.

Prepares papers and presentations for peer review, publication, and delivery at leading ML conferences and industry events. Creates patent disclosures and supporting documentation.
