You will partner with world-class researchers and engineers across the full machine learning lifecycle, from architecture exploration and large-scale training to post-training optimization and high-performance inference. This is an opportunity to turn foundational research into production systems that influence how organizations derive intelligence from complex, connected data. NVIDIA foundation models are optimized for NVIDIA-accelerated infrastructure, providing a strong platform for translating advanced AI research into deployable systems. If you are energized by graph learning, relational reasoning, and building AI that moves beyond single-table benchmarks, we would love to hear from you
What you'll be doing:- Collaborate with researchers/engineers to enhance our Transformer and GNN-based models to operate seamlessly over any relational schema and heterogeneous graph.
- Gain hands-on experience with high-impact use cases such as forecasting, entity matching, customer retention and fraud detection - all built on top of a single, extensible foundation model.
- Leverage your knowledge in ML and AI to tackle real challenges while contributing to scalable and adaptable solutions that push the boundaries of what's possible.
- Work may span the full lifecycle of modern ML systems: from architecture design/training to post-training optimization and inference acceleration.
- You will contribute to our next generation of the Relational Foundation Model.
What we need to see:- MS or PhD in Machine Learning, Computer Science, or equivalent experience
- Proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks, such as PyTorch
- At least 8 years of research experience in designing ML algorithm solutions
- Practical experience in using Predictive Models in Real World Applications
Ways to stand out from the crowd:- Familiarity with graph-based machine learning; publications at venues such as NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, or similar
Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 184,000 USD - 287,500 USD for Level 4, and 224,000 USD - 356,500 USD for Level 5.
You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
