We are looking for a Machine Learning Scientist with specific background and skills in the LLM space, who is passionate about applying AI and ML to solve high-impact societal challenges. The ideal candidate will have a strong research background with 3+ years of relevant LLM experience or a PhD in the LLM area, and expertise in designing and implementing machine learning models, data analysis, and simulations. The candidate should have expertise beyond building RAG systems and prompt engineering. They should be skilled in mentoring junior researchers, working in cross-functional teams, and contributing to both practical deployments and academic research. A demonstrated commitment to social good, strong communication skills, and the ability to translate complex problems into deployable ML solutions are essential. • As an ML Scientist, you will be responsible for building machine learning solutions to problems of societal importance and mentoring other team members in this effort. You will participate in stakeholder engagements, setting critical requirements, problem definition, and the development and execution of algorithms and solutions to the problems. • To apply machine learning and related technologies for social good, you will need to understand user challenges and their context, curate and transform data, train and validate models, create evaluations and benchmarks, run simulations, and broadly derive insights from data. In doing so, you will work in cross-functional teams spanning engineering, solutions, domain experts, and designers. You will also work closely with social sector organisations and are encouraged to collaborate with researchers across the world. • You will be encouraged to drive fundamental advances to the technology domains themselves as part of the efforts towards their application, present your work in technical and other forums of interest, and publish in leading conferences and journals. • Excellence as an individual contributor goes together with good teamwork and collaboration. You will mentor junior researchers, post-docs, and interns, and participate in recruiting and hiring activities. You will also be expected to interact with external partners when required, and to make periodic visits to the communities from where challenges are derived and where the solutions will be deployed.
