Principal Research Engineer - Redmond, WA, United States - Microsoft
Description
We are seeking a Principal Research Engineer to join our organization and help improve steerability and control Large Language Models (LLMs) and other AI systems.
Our team currently develops Guidance, a fully open-source project that enables developers to control language models more precisely and efficiently with constrained decoding.
As a Principal Research Engineer, you will play a crucial role in advancing the frontier of constrained decoding and imagining new application programming interface (APIs) for language models.
If you're excited about links between formal grammars and generative AI, deeply understanding and optimizing LLM inference, enabling more responsible AI without finetuning and RLHF, and/or exploring fundamental changes to the "text-in, text-out" API, we'd love to hear from you.
Our team offers a vibrant environment for cutting-edge, multidisciplinary research.We have a long track record of open-source code and open publication policies, and you'll have the opportunity to collaborate with world-leading experts across Microsoft and top academic institutions across the world.
Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals.
Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
In alignment with our Microsoft values, we are committed to cultivating an inclusive work environment for all employees to positively impact our culture every day.
Required Qualifications:
Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, or related technical discipline AND 6+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Pythono OR equivalent experience
Preferred Qualifications:
Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, or related technical discipline AND 10+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, Python, C, C++, Rust, or C#OR Master's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, Python, C, C++, Rust, or C#OR equivalent experienceExpertise on one of the following preferred:Deep familiarity with transformer-based model inference, including batch processing paradigms for hosted modelsExpertise in context-free grammar specification and parsingExperience with constrained decoding paradigms (regex-based constraints, grammar based constraints, JSON mode, function calling, etc.)Contribution history to open-source projects, especially in the LLM/AI spaceFamiliarity with the research process and a publication history in AI conferencesFamiliarity with Python programming paradigms and modern LLM APIsEffective communication skills and desire to collaborate in a multi-disciplinary teamFamiliarity with GuidanceSoftware Engineering IC- The typical base pay range for this role across the U.S.
There is a different range applicable to specific work locations, within the San Francisco Bay area and New York City metropolitan area, and the base pay range for this role in those locations is USD $173,200 - $282,200 per year.

Benefits/perks listed below may vary depending on the nature of your employment with Microsoft and the country where you work.
Develop and implement new constrained decoding research techniques for increasing LLM inference quality and/or efficiency. Example areas of interest include speculative execution, new decoding strategies (e.g. extensions to beam search), "classifier in the loop" decoding for responsible AI, improving AI planning, and explorations of attention-masking based constraints.Re-imagine the use and construction of context-free grammars (CFG) and beyond to fit Generative AI.
Examples of improvements here include better tools for constructing formal grammars, extensions to Earley parsing, and efficient batch processing for constrained generation.
Consideration of how these techniques are presented to developers – who may not be well versed in grammars and constrained generation in an intuitive, idiomatic programming syntax is also top of mind.
Design principled evaluation frameworks and benchmarks for measuring the effects of constrained decoding on a model.Some areas of interest to study carefully include efficiency (token throughput and latency), generation quality, and impacts of constrained decoding on AI safety.
