Job Description

We work on a python library that implements a variety of training time and post training quantization algorithms and provides them to developers as simple to use turnkey APIs and ensures that these optimizations work seamlessly with the Core ML inference stack and Apple hardware. Our algorithms are implemented using PyTorch. We optimize models across domains including NLP vision text generative models etc. Key responsibilities of this role are: - Setting up and/or streamlining CI and automation pipelines. Adopting the best practices and integrating with the latest Apple internal CI services for the same. - Making enhancements to the release process automating nightly builds and setting up scheduled CI runs for different levels of testing etc. - Making innovations in model testing and benchmarking (accuracy and latency) for various combinations of model types in different domains (vision text audio etc) and compression algorithms (quantization pruning palettization etc) discovering performance/accuracy trends effects of various hyper parameters etc. - Finding innovative ways to reduce test time while maintaining high quality test coverage - Passionate about the user experience and ways to improve it to fix bugs understand user pain points and actively participate in supporting users.- Developing integration of the model optimization library with other training engines and data platforms at Apple. - Keeping the code base updated to work with the latest versions of Python PyTorch numpy etc. - Set up and debug training jobs datasets evaluation performance benchmarking pipelines. Ability to ramp up quickly on new training code bases and run experiments. - Run detailed experiments and ablation studies to profile algorithms on various models tasks across different model sizes. - Improving model optimization documentation writing tutorials and guides- Self prioritize and adjust to changing priorities and asks
