Summary:

Meta is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to join Fundamental AI Research (FAIR). We are committed to advancing the field of artificial intelligence by making fundamental advances in technologies to help interact with and understand our world. The mission of Meta FAIR's Systems for ML research is to advance the state of AI through open science innovations. We explore, design, and build AI systems and infrastructures at scale to enable next-generation AI technologies. We aim to develop an in-depth understanding for critical but underinvested research directions for AI systems, from the design of programming framework and the compiler to the variety of AI hardware-software co-design. To increase the usability of AI systems and performance portability, we develop software system stack to unlock the performance potentials promised by the AI hardware. Furthermore, as AI becomes more and more pervasive, we must innovate with responsibility in mind when building the next generation AI systems and by developing greener, more fair and secure AI technologies.In this role, you will work with researchers at Meta and develop prototypes at the frontier of AI research. You will engage with research work in the intersection between systems and machine learning, build expertise with Meta data and tools; apply high standards to the research code around you and develop skills to identify and carry out highly impactful projects in a complex and unexplored domain. You will gain valuable experience in Systems and ML, publish academic papers and thereby advance the field of AI. Postdoc positions are 1 to 2 year fixed-term positions.
