San Jose, California, United States Hume AI Full time
About Hume AI

Hume AI is a pioneering company dedicated to developing artificial intelligence that prioritizes human well-being. Our mission is to create AI systems that are guided by human values, addressing the most pressing challenge of the 21st century.

Our Approach

We employ a novel approach called reinforcement learning from human expression (RLHE), which learns human preferences from behavior in vast amounts of audio and video recordings. This enables our AI models to understand subtle tones of voice, word emphasis, facial expressions, and more, ultimately leading to more empathetic and helpful AI assistants.

Our Goal

Our ultimate goal is to create a future where technology leverages an understanding of human emotional expression to better serve human goals. We believe that this requires a deep understanding of human values and preferences, which is why we're committed to conducting groundbreaking scientific research and publishing our findings in leading scientific journals.

About the Role

We're seeking a talented software engineer to join our research team and work alongside our scientists to fine-tune a wide range of open-source and proprietary large language models (LLMs). In this role, you'll be responsible for building software systems that support distributed model training, inference, and benchmarking, as well as massive-scale data collection, storage, preprocessing, and analysis.

Requirements
  • Expertise in the Python ecosystem and popular ML libraries and tools (e.g. PyTorch)
  • Experience writing robust and maintainable production-ready code
  • Comfort iterating quickly on new and uncertain research directions
  • 2+ years of experience training and/or fine-tuning transformer models with large-scale datasets of text, audio, image, and/or video data
What We Offer

We offer a competitive salary range of $130,000-$230,000 USD, depending on experience. If you're passionate about AI research and development, and want to be part of a team that's shaping the future of human-AI interaction, we encourage you to apply.
