Our team makes PyTorch run faster and more resource-efficient without sacrificing the flexibility and ease of use of PyTorch.
Team scope:
- Advance PyTorch 2.0 technologies that bring torch.compile() to the heart of PyTorch
- Advance PyTorch Distributed through torch.compile()
- Improve PyTorch out-of-the-box performance on GPU, CPU, accelerators
- Vertical performance optimization for models for training and inference
Our team at Meta AI offers twelve (12) to sixteen (24) weeks long internships and we have various start dates throughout the year.
Research Scientist Intern, PyTorch Compiler (PhD) Responsibilities
- Develop new techniques in TorchDynamo, TorchInductor, PyTorch core, PyTorch Distributed.
- Explore the intersection of PyTorch compiler and PyTorch Distributed.
- Optimize Generative AI models across the stack (pre-training, fine-tuning, and inference).
- Improve general PyTorch performance.
- Conduct cutting-edge research on ML compiler and ML distributed technologies.
- Collaborate with users of PyTorch to enable new use cases for the framework both inside and outside Meta.
