IBM Research is seeking an innovative and driven Research Engineer to build the future of the open model weight ecosystem. In this role, you will be at the forefront of foundation model/software harness co-design. You will bridge the gap between cutting-edge theoretical research and practical application by building the software and model capabilities that make small and medium sized models shine. This position offers a unique opportunity to shape the future of actually open AI, collaborate with world-class scientists and academic partners, and publish research that drives the open weight community forward. If you are passionate about hacking on low-level systems code in the mornings and brainstorming about novel training regimes in the afternoon, we invite you to join our team.
At IBM, you don’t need a degree to shape the future. Just bring your skills—and your passion. To build. To design. To code. To consult. To think along with clients and sell. To make markets. To invent. To collaborate.
Not just to do something better, but to attempt things you've never thought possible. To lead in this new era of technology and solve some of the world's most challenging problems. Let’s get to work.
