  • Mathematics: Strong foundations in algebra, calculus, optimization, graph theory, and numerical methods.

  • Deep expertise in at least one GenAI modality (e.g., text, image, audio, etc.).

  • Data Wrangling and Preparation: expertise in handling large datasets, data cleaning, normalizing, transforming, and preparing them for model training.

  • Model Evaluation and Interpretation: ability to assess model performance, compare different models, interpret results, and identify potential issues. Understanding evaluation metrics, bias-variance tradeoff, overfitting, underfitting, regularization techniques, and hyperparameter tuning.

• Programming Skills: Proficiency in programming languages such as Python and experience working with version control systems (e.g., Git) and collaborating on code repositories is crucial.

• Proven track record of publications in top-tier conferences and journals

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience developing tools, libraries, and infrastructure for data preprocessing, model training/finetuning, and deployment of LLMs in research and production environments.

• Experience with cloud computing platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.

Professional Attributes:

• Problem Solving: ability to break down complex problems into manageable components, devising creative solutions, and iteratively refining ideas based on feedback and experimental evidence.

• Collaboration and Communication: proficiency in working within cross-functional teams - communicating clearly, providing constructive criticism, delegating responsibilities, and respecting diverse perspectives.

• Critical Thinking: ability to carefully evaluate assumptions, questioning established methodologies, challenging own biases, and maintaining skepticism when interpreting results.

• Curiosity and Continuous Learning: ability to stay curious about advances in related fields and constantly seeking opportunities to expand knowledge base.

• Emotional Intelligence and Intellectual Humility: capable of displaying empathy, resilience, adaptability, and self-awareness. Ability to recognize own limitations, embracing uncertainty, acknowledging mistakes, and valuing others' contributions.
