Research Operations Specialist (Neural Network Quality & Experimentation)

You will collaborate with researchers to perform research operations using existing infrastructure. You will use your judgment in complex scenarios and help apply standard techniques to a wide variety of technical problems. Specifically, you will:

• Characterize neural network quality, failure modes, and edge cases based on research data

• Maintain awareness of current trends in relevant areas of research and technology

• Coordinate with researchers and accurately convey status of experiments

• Manage a large number of concurrent experiments and make accurate time estimates with respect to deadlines

• Review experimental results and suggest theoretical or process improvements for future iterations

• Write technical reports indicating qualitative and quantitative results to external parties

You have:

• A sense of practical optimism: not all experiments are successful, but the ones that are more than make up for it!

• Proficiency in Python

• Proven ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment

• Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to colleagues and a variety of audiences

• Introspection, thoughtfulness, and detail-orientation
