OverviewAs a Deep Learning Scientist in the Foundation Models team, you will drive open multilingual LLM pre-training research from data curation to model evaluation.
You'll design scalable experiments, explore architectures and optimization strategies, and develop multilingual training methods to advance open models beyond English.
You'll work closely with researchers and engineers to translate hypotheses into large-scale experiments on GPU/HPC infrastructure.
This role offers the chance to shape Translated's next generation of multilingual language models and contribute to state-of-the-art benchmarks.
