AI/ML Intern
We are looking for an ML/NLP Intern who is a Computer Science student (MS or PhD candidate) knowledgeable in Natural Language Processing, including deep knowledge of building NLP models using transformers and LLMs. We do not want to reinvent the wheel! We want to leverage some of the LLM models that have already been built and look at potentially training existing models. We have a problem statement to read in the workshop transcription material and use that to fine-tune an open-source LLM. We are also working on a product that uses LLM and Big Data for a mental health application. We are looking at using the HuggingFace or Databricks ecosystem. The student should be well-versed in using this ecosystem. If you are an international student on an F1 visa, we prefer candidates who are graduating in December 2025. Currently, we have one opening for Spring 2026
