Engineer- Reinforcement Learning and LLM
About the role
Huawei Canada has an immediate 12-month contract opening for an Engineer. About the team: The Intelligent Cloud Infrastructure Lab aims to innovate technologies, algorithms, systems, and platforms for next-generation cloud infrastructure. The lab addresses scalability, performance, and resource utilization challenges in existing cloud services while preparing for future challenges with appropriate technologies and architectures. Additionally, the lab aims to understand industry dynamics and technology trends to create a robust ecosystem.
About the job:
- Leverage state-of-the-art research to deliver high-quality models and fine-tuning framework enabling multiple AI projects at scale.
- Conduct research and development in training and serving Multimodal Large Language models with multiple stages of fine-tuning including SFT and RFT.
- Design and implement multi-agent systems in collaboration with corresponding production teams.
- Data generation, collection and preprocessing to train and fine-tune large models.
- Production level optimization of models and systems to guarantee best performance.
- Generate reports and documentations based on experiment and analysis.
- Deliver developed solutions and provide technical support for production teams.
- Collaborate with researchers to file high-impact patents and publish top-tier conferences.
The target annual compensation (based on 2080 hours per year) ranges from $78,000 to $168,000 depending on education, experience and demonstrated expertise.
Job requirements
About the ideal candidate:
- Master’s or PhD degree in Computer Science or a related discipline with a focus on Machine Learning, Computer Vision, LLM, Reinforcement Learning or mathematics.
- 3+ years of experience as part of highly functional software development team building world class products.
- Demonstrated success in deep learning projects involving Transformers, LLM, VLM, MLLM, Reinforcement Learning, etc.
- Experience in Software Development, Machine Learning, Data Engineering, Data Science, LLM, Reinforcement Learning or related field with a track record of solving industrial problems with SOTA algorithms and frameworks.
- Proficient coding skills in Python and Pytorch with the ability to efficiently translate research ideas into prototypes.
- Experience in fine-tuning of LLM Models (Language, Vision and/or Multi-modal Models) with SFT or RFT.
- Strong publication record at relevant conferences such CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, AAAI, IJCAI etc.
- Demonstrated industrial experience in building large scale machine learning solutions for production-oriented tasks.
About Huawei Canada
Founded in 1987, Huawei is a leading global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices. We are committed to bringing digital to every person, home and organization for a fully connected, intelligent world. We have approximately 197,000 employees and we operate in over 170 countries and regions, serving more than three billion people around the world.
In Canada, Huawei conducts innovative and leading edge research in 5G technologies, along with advanced development of emerging cloud, device and network technologies & services. While our renowned Canada Research Centre in the thriving technology landscape of Ottawa, Ontario continues to grow rapidly in size and strategic product initiatives, additional presence has also been established across Canada with R&D facilities in Vancouver, Edmonton, Waterloo, Markham, Montreal, and a R&D office in Quebec City.
