About the role#
This internship focuses on the research and development of Omni multimodal large models. You will contribute to the entire lifecycle of model development, from data construction and foundational algorithm design to optimization across pre-training, SFT, and RL. The role involves evaluating model capabilities and exploring practical downstream application scenarios.
What you'll do#
- Design and construct training data and develop foundational model algorithms.
- Analyze R&D challenges to identify performance bottlenecks and devise solutions to accelerate model iteration.
- Research next-generation model architectures to push the boundaries of multimodal understanding and generation.
- Optimize models for competitive performance and explore diverse paradigms for Omni-modal capabilities.
What you'll need#
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematics, or a related field (graduate degrees are prioritized).
- Solid foundation in deep learning algorithms with practical experience in large model development.
- Proficiency in deep learning network implementation, model tuning, CPU/GPU acceleration, and distributed training/inference optimization.
- Familiarity with Diffusion Models and Autoregressive Models is advantageous.
- Hands-on experience in large-scale multimodal data processing and high-quality data generation is highly preferred.
- Participation in ACM or NOI competitions is highly valued.
- Strong learning agility, communication skills, and teamwork.
Location & details#
- Location: Palo Alto, California.
- Modality: On-site.
- Term: Rolling.
- Compensation: $80,168.40 to $124,800.00 per year.
