- Design, implement, and optimize ML algorithms for predictive modeling, Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Computer Vision
- Identify, prepare, and optimize large datasets for ML training
- Leverage OpenAI tools and APIs for ML tasks
- Undertake applied research on ML techniques to address the limitations in existing models
- Collaborate with project team and stakeholders to develop MVP and client focused solutions
- Participate in regular meetings with the client, preparing presentations and reports
- Develop Data and ML workflows
- Optimize ML pipelines for efficiency, scalability, and real-time processing

**Required Qualifications**:

- Completion of a graduate level program or higher (M.Sc/Ph.D) in Computing Science, ML or Engineering
- Research or project experience in Natural Language Processing
- Previous experience with LLM use-cases
- Proficient in Python programming language and related ML frameworks, libraries and toolkits (e.g. Scikit learn, Keras, Tensorflow, PyTorch, Pandas, Jupyter notebooks, Transformers, DeepSpeed, HuggingFace Datasets)
- A positive attitude towards learning and understanding a new applied domain
- Must be legally eligible to work in Canada

**Preferred Qualifications**:

- Hands-on experience in AI/ML development projects
- Familiarity with OpenAI technologies (e.g., GPT, DALL-E, Codex) to augment LLM capabilities
- Statistical analysis and hypothesis testing
- Publication record in peer-reviewed academic conferences or relevant journals in machine learning

**Non-Technical Requirements**:

- Desire to take ownership of a problem and demonstrated leadership skills
- Interdisciplinary team player enthusiastic about working together to achieve excellence
- Capable of critical and independent thought
- Intellectual curiosity and the desire to learn new things, techniques, and technologies

**Why You Should Apply**

Besides gaining industry experience, additional perks include:
