Join the Revolution at Leonardo.Ai!

Leonardo.Ai, an Australian tech startup, is on a transformative mission to democratise design and ignite the world's creativity through our groundbreaking AI-powered platform. With over 20 million users worldwide and counting, we're just starting!.

The Role:

This is an exciting opportunity for AI or Machine Learning professionals and academics to join the brightest minds, helping Australia’s most potent generative AI-powered platform unleash the world’s creativity through novel tools for human-ai collaboration and intelligent systems.

As an AI Research Engineer, you will be involved in training, evaluating, and engineering the training/inference infrastructure for large models for intelligence in visual domains. You will also work with and interpret petabyte-scale data, build and optimise efficient systems for model research, and/or apply AI techniques to create novel user experiences. This role involves mentoring junior team members and playing a key role in strategic planning. 

We are hiring across multiple disciplines in AI Research and would love to hear from candidates with foundational model training, data exploration, systems engineering, and optimisation backgrounds. 

Responsibilities: 

  • Solve engineering problems to optimise all aspects of model training from data loading to output over 1000s of GPUs.

  • Profiling and diagnosing points of latency and addressing in areas of low-level optimisation and network communications.

  • We are designing high-performance distributed systems inference and training.

  • We are building infrastructure for working with complex multimodal data, such as video, imagery, 3D data types, text, and beyond.

  • Taking AI research output from prototype to robust, scalable, production-ready code

  • Collaborate with other technical teams on new features, improvements and platform stability.

Skills we like: 

  • Proficient with building and managing AWS/GCP infrastructure. 

  • Experience in Python, deep learning frameworks, cloud computing, and software engineering

  • Optimising inference of models from data movement, compiling, pruning, or other techniques

  • Deploying and optimising models that run over several GPUs

  • Previous exposure with Torch, SageMaker, and CUDA.

  • Knowledge of Generative AI, particularly diffusion-based image generation and VLMs.

  • Engineering experience with deep learning, LLMs, computer vision, AI model training, and data pipelines. 

  • AI model and system performance tuning and optimisation. 

  • Team player attitude capable of collaborating with cross-functional teams

  • Curious and stays on top of new and changing tools and techniques in the AI space. 

  • Experience with machine learning algorithms and tools (e.g., Pytorch, JAX), artificial intelligence, deep learning, and natural language processing.
