The future of intelligence is open.
About the role
As a Research Engineer - Model Architectures , you will be a core contributor to Zyphra’s AI Architecture Research Team. This will involve designing and rigorously testing novel model architectures and training methodologies, with a focus on improving core modeling capabilities (e.g., loss per flop or loss per parameter) and addressing fundamental bottlenecks in contemporary models. You will also work extremely closely with our pre-training team, who will integrate your insights into our next-generation models.
What they're looking for
- Strong research taste and intuition
- The ability to work through a research project from conception to execution to write-up
- Strong implementation and prototyping ability can take an idea from conception to experimentation extremely quickly
- The ability to work well and cooperate with others in a high-paced research setting
- Curiosity, interest, and joy in understanding intelligence
- Previous experience with long-term memory, RAG/retrieval systems, dynamic/adaptive computation, and alternative approaches to credit assignment
