Build and scale Tower’s machine learning research platform, enabling reproducible experimentation, GPU-accelerated training, simulation, and efficient compute across HPC and cloud environments.
ML Software Engineer
📜 Description
- Design and ship multimodal data pipelines and reproducible training and evaluation workflows.
- Implement LLM, VLM, and VLA architectures, including model code, tokenization, inference runners, and output heads.
- Integrate simulators for closed-loop evaluation and build metrics, visualization, and experiment-management tools.
- Deliver production serving and inference tools for deterministic, low-latency operation.
- Own systems end to end, from architecture and implementation through testing, documentation, and iteration.
🛠️ Requirements
- Education & Experience: MS in CS/ML/Robotics or BS + ≥2 years building ML/data/evaluation systems
- Software engineering excellence: Strong Python fundamentals (data structures, testing, debugging, modular design) and a track record of shipping production-quality code/APIs and reliable automation.
- Pipelines → Training → Serving: Demonstrated experience building data/ML pipelines and evaluation tooling, and integrating training and inference using PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX.
- Datasets at scale: Dataset packaging, sharding, manifest formats, and integrity checks for large multimodal datasets.
- Performance & optimization: Practical work improving training/inference throughput and latency (e.g., mixed precision, efficient batching, model parallelism).
- MLOps & infrastructure: Cloud storage and training workflows, containerization, CI/CD, and experiment observability (tracking, logging, metrics).
- Team fit: Strong communication, collaborative with research and engineering partners, and a bias for ownership/independence in a small, fast-moving team.
- Nice to have: Prior work on perception, detection, or multimodal models.
