Job Description
Senior ML Engineer at Nebius developing an inference platform for fast, reliable training & deployment of LLMs. Collaborating in a dynamic AI cloud infrastructure environment.
Responsibilities:
- Enhance fine-tuning methodologies - both LoRA-based and full-parameter - for cutting-edge LLMs (e.g., GPT-OSS, Kimi K2, DeepSeek V3/R1, GLM-4.5), focusing on both model quality and training efficiency.
- Research and implement advanced inference optimization techniques, such as speculative decoding, quantization, and large-scale draft model training.
- Re-implement state-of-the-art open-source LLM architectures in JAX.
Requirements:
- A profound understanding of theoretical foundations of machine learning and reinforcement learning.
- Deep expertise in modern deep learning for language processing and generation.
- Substantial experience with training large models on multiple computational nodes.
- Reasonable understanding of performance aspects of large neural network training (sharding strategies, custom kernels, hardware features etc.).
- Strong software engineering skills (we mostly use Python).
- Deep experience with modern deep learning frameworks (we use JAX).
- Proficiency in contemporary software engineering approaches, including CI/CD, version control and unit testing.
- Strong communication and leadership abilities.
- Previous experience working with language models or other similar NLP technologies is nice to have.
- Familiarity with important ideas in LLM space, such as MHA, RoPE, ZeRO/FSDP, Flash Attention, quantization is a plus.
- A track record of building and delivering products (not necessarily ML-related) in a dynamic startup-like environment is desired.
- Strong engineering skills, including experience in developing large distributed systems or high-load web services is beneficial.
