Key Responsibilities:
- Deploy and benchmark state-of-the-art AI models (e.g., Llama-3, Mistral, Gemma) end-to-end on cloud/server environments.
- Set up and maintain GPU-powered experimentation environments (CUDA, Docker, conda, etc.).
- Design and run model performance tests (latency, memory usage, output quality) and A/B experiments.
- Develop automation scripts for model deployment, scaling, and resource monitoring.
- Research and prototype emerging AI techniques (MoE, quantization, Agentic workflows, etc.).
Must-Have Qualifications:
- Currently pursuing a Master’s/PhD in Computer Science, AI, or related fields (full-time internship commitment).
- Proven coding rigor: Strong Python skills with AI project experience (share GitHub/reports).

- Self-starter: Ability to set up experiments independently and troubleshoot hardware/software issues.
- English proficiency (read/write technical docs, arXiv papers).
Preferred Skills:
- Experience with model quantization (GGUF, FP8), LoRA fine-tuning, or distillation.
- Familiarity with ML monitoring tools (Weights & Biases, TensorBoard).
- Contributions to open-source AI projects or technical blogs.
- Curiosity about AI Agents (AutoGPT, LangGraph) or multi-modal systems.
