TAL's take
Solid technical depth in LLM/Transformer development, but from a lower-tier company with undefined compensation.
Highly specific technical requirements focused on model architecture and training, clearly distinguishing it from API-layer roles.
Must haves
- 6+ years experience in Data Science, Machine Learning, or NLP
- Hands-on expertise in Transformers and Seq2Seq architectures
- Experience in model training and fine-tuning on custom datasets
- Proficiency with PyTorch or TensorFlow and Hugging Face
- Experience with vector databases like Pinecone or Milvus
- Experience with distributed training and GPU optimization
Tools and skills
Nice to have: lora, qlora, fsdp, rlhf, sft.
