[rl-list] [Jobs] Reinforcement Learning Engineer position at Technology Innovation Institute

[Reda Alami]

Dear all,

We are looking for motivated engineers focusing on reinforcement learning and more specifically on reinforcement learning from human feedback in order to build the RLHF for the Falcon LLM model. 

Please find below the complete description of this job opportunity.

Technology Innovation Institute (TII) is a publicly funded research institute, based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. 

It is home to a diverse community of leading scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and researchers from across the globe, transforming problems and roadblocks into pioneering research and technology prototypes that help move society ahead.

AI and Digital Science Research CentreThe Artificial Intelligence Cross-Center Unit is the machine learning powerhouse of TII, working in close collaboration with our other research centers to harness the full benefits of AI across our projects and drive innovation from new computing paradigms, designing and delivering new AI methodologies, technologies, solutions, and systems that address challenging issues across multiple sectors of the economy from technology to healthcare, cybersecurity, and government, among others.We incorporate core elements of intelligence (perception, sensing, planning, and language) in the ideation design, and prototyping of next-generation systems with human-like intelligence. 

We build advanced AI computing and scalable AI-based software stacks and hardware systems to deliver significant enhancements in systems infrastructure. Our AI researchers, scientists, and engineers collaborate to ensure innovative outcomes, from AI theory to AI technologies towards better intelligence.
