Analyze outputs and behavior of LLM-based agentic systems, identify failure patterns, and propose data-driven improvements.
Research, design, and train classical ML models (e.g., gradient boosting, ensemble methods) for prediction, classification, and optimization tasks within the production pipeline.
Investigate and evaluate ML components, algorithms, and feature selection methods to improve system performance and robustness.
Explore and apply LLM capabilities - including prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, evaluation, and agentic tool use - to production-relevant problems.
Analyze model failures and data gaps, then propose and prototype improvements to features, algorithms, and system design.
Work closely with software engineers and applied scientists to translate research insights into actionable engineering improvements.
What we need to see:
Currently enrolled in a Master's or PhD program in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, Statistics, or a closely related field.
Proficiency with agentic AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) for research, prototyping, and productivity.
Solid foundations in machine learning, including supervised learning, feature engineering, and model evaluation.
Programming skills in Python, with experience in at least some of: scikit-learn, XGBoost, CatBoost, and Pandas.
Understanding of ML/DL algorithms and statistical modeling, and comfort working with data structures and numerical computing.
Experience with modern software‑development practices and version‑control systems (e.g., Git).
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Ability to cut through complexity - knowing what matters, drilling into the right details, and keeping the business goal in sight.
Strong statistical foundations with hands-on experience in experimental design and rigorous model evaluation.
Familiarity with LLM concepts such as RAG, fine-tuning, or agentic pipelines.
A track record of creative, novel approaches over off-the-shelf defaults.
