Summary:
Meta is seeking AI research engineers to help us build the data foundation for Meta's most advanced Large Language Models. We're looking for engineers with LLM expertise to join us on working with data at scale and to push beyond the data ceiling.Our team contributes to data curation across all stages of LLM development (pre-training, mid-training, post-training) and all domains/modalities (e.g., web, code, agent, multilingual). We tackle the hardest challenges at trillion-scale, including organic data curation, synthetic data generation, agent and interaction data, and frontier paradigms that redefine what's possible. Based in Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL) within the Fundamental AI Research Organization (FAIR), you'll directly contribute to Meta’s frontier models like Llama, while having the chance to collaborate with researchers and engineers across MSL.
