Exposure to MLOps best practices and scalable deployment frameworks, and an Opportunity to contribute to high-impact projects that improve real-world systems.
Job Responsibilities:
Optimize inference performance for transformer-based models (e.g., quantization, pruning, batch inference).
Design and implement workflows for managing the model lifecycle (training, versioning, deployment, and monitoring).
Conduct performance benchmarking and develop tools to analyze and visualize model performance.
Collaborate with engineers and researchers to implement scalable and efficient model serving solutions.
Support integration of ML models into production pipelines using industry-standard tools and frameworks.
Job Requirements:
Currently pursuing a Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field.
Strong foundation in deep learning and hands-on experience with transformer architectures.
Proficiency in Python and experience with ML frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.
Familiarity with model optimization techniques (e.g., ONNX, TorchScript, quantization).
Exposure to model versioning and lifecycle tools (e.g., MLflow, SageMaker, or similar).
Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a collaborative environment.
Experience with containerization (Docker), orchestration tools (Kubernetes), or cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure).
Understanding of distributed training/inference strategies.
