Microsoft is looking to build a suite of microservices to get near real-time insights over data in Microsoft Dataverse Search, requiring advanced AI models and agentic systems for real-world applications.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience developing and deploying large language models (LLMs), including agentic systems, supervised fine-tuning, and Reinforcement Learning (RLHF).
- 3+ years of experience designing, implementing, and optimizing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines and advanced context engineering.
Responsibilities
- Design and development of advanced AI models and agentic systems for real-world applications.
- Own and drive end-to-end model training, including data pipeline design, distributed training optimization, and performance evaluation.
- Stay up to date with the latest advancements in LLM, NLP, deep learning, search and AI research.
- Research and develop an understanding of the state-of-the-art tools, technologies, and methods being used in the research community and product groups.
- Collaborate closely with engineering, product, and research teams to productionize models, build scalable, robust pipelines and provide support for in production AI Models/Agents.
- End-to-end lifecycle of machine learning models, from prototyping and implementation to evaluation, deployment, and monitoring.
- Conduct applied science experiments, create and validate metrics, develop ML pipeline and modeling algorithm in the area of Large Language Models, Natural Language Processing, Information Retrieval, and Machine Learning.
