Its holistic approach will help to secure a brighter, more sustainable future for humanity. 

The Research Engineer will conduct cutting-edge research on large language models (LLMs) for Southeast Asian languages. LLMs have demonstrated excellent performance on a large number of language and multimodal tasks. However, training LLMs on low-resource languages such as Malay, Thai, and Vietnamese remains a challenging problem. In this project, we aim to build LLMs that understand and respect SEA culture and customs.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct research in the field of neural networks, natural language processing (NLP), and large language models (LLMs).

  • Independently read and critically evaluate existing literature on NLP and LLMs. 

  • Implement neural networks and carry out experiments under the guidance of a professor

  • Write papers and present the research work to a wide audience

Job Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a related field, with a focus on neural networks, natural language processing, or similar areas.

  • Strong proficiency in C programming language.

  • A strong curiosity for learning new concepts and exploring unsolved problems.

  • Sharp observational skills, with the ability to notice details that others may miss.

  • Resilience and determination to persevere through temporary setbacks.

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English for research work.

  • Strong teamwork abilities, a strong sense of responsibility, and excellent interpersonal skills.

We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
