Job description
NVIDIA is seeking Senior Deep Learning Scientists to enhance their efforts in streaming and agentic multimodal AI. The role focuses on developing models that can reason, plan, and act across various modalities, contributing to high-impact large language models and multimodal AI products. Candidates will work within the Nemotron LLM team, applying their expertise in deep learning and reinforcement learning to tackle real-world AI challenges. This position offers the opportunity to define algorithmic improvements and improve user experiences for millions.
Requirements
- Master's degree or PhD in Computer Science, AI, or Applied Math with 8+ years of relevant work experience.
- Excellent programming skills in Python with strong fundamentals in scalable model development and deep learning frameworks like PyTorch.
- Strong knowledge of ML/DL techniques and modern foundation model architectures, including Transformers and mixture-of-experts models.
- Foundational understanding of reinforcement learning algorithms and implementation, including MDPs, policies, and reward design.
- Hands-on experience in post-training multimodal models for omni-modality reasoning and human-AI interaction.
Responsibilities
- Apply fundamental and applied research to develop, train, fine-tune, and deploy large language models for agentic systems.
- Advance post-training and alignment methods to improve multimodal agents for complex use cases.
- Research and develop agentic reasoning and grounded perception capabilities focusing on planning and tool execution.
- Lead the collection, development, and benchmarking of multimodal datasets to ensure high-quality evaluation of model accuracy.
Benefits
- Employees at NVIDIA are often offered comprehensive, day-one benefits—including medical, dental, and vision coverage with HSA support, life and disability insurance, an Employee Assistance Program, and a 401(k) with auto-enrollment. Many roles also have generous time off and holidays, donation matching (up to $10,000), and a wide menu of extras like FSAs, commuter benefits, legal and identity-theft protection, pet insurance, and wellness discounts. Optional programs can include student-loan and home-purchase support, plus family care resources and expert medical services.
