• BS & MS in Computer Science or related field, PhD preferred 
• Ability to leverage large-scale compute resources, including distributed GPUs, to train and evaluate very large neural networks.
• Familiarity with advanced models such as BERT
• Working knowledge of machine learning techniques and algorithms, ranging from logistic regression to deep neural networks.
• Professional experience with basic NLP, including techniques such as tokenization, lemmatization, and TF-IDF vectorization.
• Ability to manage datasets and evaluate ML model performance, using train/test splits, cross-validation, and task-specific metrics.
• Proficiency in Python, including basic skills such as setting up virtual environments, installing packages from PyPI, and debugging common problems using online resources.
• Ability to create large software projects that are organized, well-structured, thoughtfully documented, and automatically tested.
• Experience deploying machine learning models to production.

Nice to Have

• Proven record of working with open-source communities.
• Familiarity with web frameworks such as Flask, Tornado, Starlette, or FastAPI.
• Experience with server-side JavaScript or TypeScript, including comfort with tools such as npm.
