• Implement innovative training objectives and loss functions for discrete diffusion LLMs.
• Research and implement techniques for controlled text generation and constraint satisfaction.
• Develop methods for multi-modal integration within the diffusion framework.
• Improve model efficiency, reduce training time, and optimize inference throughput.
• Develop and implement post-training techniques to align and improve model behavior.

Qualifications

• BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• At least 2 years of experience working on ML projects in PyTorch (or equivalent), preferably in a research lab or engineering role.
• Excellent familiarity with transformers and core LLM concepts (autoregressive pretraining, instruction tuning, in-context learning, KV caching).
• Familiarity with training and inference in diffusion models.
• Experience training deep learning models at scale in distributed computing environments.

Preferred Skills

• Extensive experience training transformer-based language models from scratch.
• Knowledge of advanced training techniques (mixed precision, gradient accumulation, etc.).
