Overview

Senior Research Engineer - Multimodal & Video Foundation Model

As a member of the AI model team, you will drive innovation in architecture development for cutting-edge models of various scales, including small, large, and multi-modal systems. Your work will enhance intelligence, improve efficiency, and introduce new capabilities to advance the field. You will have a deep expertise in video generation model architectures with a hands-on, research-driven approach.

Responsibilities
  • Pioneer multimodal and video-centric research that moves fast and breaks ground, contributing directly to usable prototypes and scalable systems.
  • Design and implement novel AI architectures for multimodal language models, integrating text, visual, and audio modalities.
  • Engineer scalable training and inference pipelines optimized for large-scale multimodal datasets and distributed GPU systems across thousands of GPUs.
  • Optimize systems and algorithms for efficient data processing, model execution, and pipeline throughput.
  • Build modular tools for preprocessing, analyzing, and managing multimodal data assets (e.g., images, video, text).
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with research and engineering teams to translate cutting-edge model innovations into production-grade solutions.
  • Prototype generative AI applications showcasing new capabilities of multimodal foundation models in real-world products.
  • Develop benchmarking tools to rigorously evaluate model performance across diverse multimodal tasks.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • Expertise in Python & PyTorch, including practical experience working with the full development pipeline from data processing & data loading to training, inference, and optimization.
