Data Scientist (GenAI / LLM) in Berlin bei Porsche Digital GmbH

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• You plan, develop and implement large language model (LLM) and AI solutions to automate tasks such as text generation, image processing. Further, you implement data analysis, ML algorithms as well as associated workflows to replace repetitive tasks with machine support.
• Introduce the latest advancements in language models to our products, such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) techniques, and prompt engineering methodologies.
• Develop, fine-tune, and optimize language models using frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, or Hugging Face Transformers leveraging one of the prominent cloud providers (AWS, MS Azure).
• Experiment with different pipelines, architectures, training algorithms, and hyperparameters to enhance model capabilities such as fluency, coherence, and relevance.
• Optimize models for inference speed, memory footprint, scalability, and safety (incl. ethical concerns).
• Design effective pipeline, prompts, and inputs to guide language model responses toward desired outcomes.
• Collaborate with domain experts to understand specific use cases and requirements to develop AI solutions.
• Evaluate the performance of different prompts using metrics such as response relevance, diversity, and user satisfaction.
• Deploy trained / fine-tuned language models into production environments, ensuring robustness, scalability, and reliability.
• Collaborate with teams of LLM & ML researchers in the development of full-stack, GPU-accelerated data preparation pipelines for multimodal models. Implement benchmarking, profiling, and optimization of innovative algorithms in Python in various system architectures, specifically targeting LLM applications.
• Monitor the performance of the implemented AI systems and continuously develop optimization strategies.
