Nvidia Research Scientist, Generalist Embodied Agent Research - New College Graduate 2024 in Santa Clara, California
NVIDIA is searching for an outstanding researcher on the topic of Foundation Models for Generalist Embodied Agent Research (GEAR). Everything that moves will eventually be autonomous. ChatGPT unifies all kinds of natural language understanding tasks in a single interface: text in, text out. What is the equivalent for an embodied Agent? What does it take to build a model that actively explores the world, ingests a multimodal sensory stream, plans over long horizons, acquires new skills, and bootstraps its own capabilities?
You will work with an amazing and collaborative research team that consistently publishes influential works on LLMs, multimodal foundation models, AI in gaming, robotics, policy learning, and simulation. Our past projects include Voyager (https://voyager.minedojo.org/) , MineDojo (http://minedojo.org) , Eureka (https://eureka-research.github.io/) , VIMA (https://vimalabs.github.io/) , MimicPlay (https://mimic-play.github.io/) , Prismer (https://github.com/NVlabs/prismer) , and more. Your contributions will have a significant impact on our cutting-edge research projects and will help shape our products.
What you'll be doing:
Design and implement novel techniques and methods for LLMs, multimodal models, and embodied agents.
Engineer robust infrastructure and data pipelines for scaling up foundation models.
Work with product groups to transfer technology.
Mentor interns.
Collaborate with external researchers.
What we need to see:
Ph.D. in Computer Science/Engineering, Electrical Engineering, etc., or equivalent research experience.
Outstanding engineering skills for rapid research prototyping, open-source release, or production development. Python is required; C++ and CUDA experiences are plus.
Excellent knowledge and hands-on experience for training LLMs, multimodal foundation models, or large generative models.
Experience in foundation and diffusion models, reinforcement learning, agent learning, and applied robotics
Knowledge of common AI frameworks, such as PyTorch.
