You will research and build ultra‑efficient models and toolchains for on‑device inference across CPUs, GPUs, NPUs, and specialized accelerators. Your work will enable Mistral models to run privately, reliably, and fast on mobile, desktop, and embedded devices.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>What you will do</b></div><div><br /></div><div>• Run pre-training, post-training and deploy state of the art models on clusters with thousands of GPUs. You don’t panic when you see OOM errors or when NCCL feels like not wanting to talk.</div><div>• Design and evaluate quantization, pruning, distillation, and sparsity methods for LLMs and multimodal models.</div><div>• Build deployment stacks, optimize kernels and memory layouts.</div><div>• Run large‑scale experiments to balance accuracy, latency, throughput, and power under tight memory constraints; profile and fix bandwidth/compute bottlenecks.</div><div>• Develop tooling for calibration data generation, mixed‑precision training, quant‑aware finetuning, structured/unstructured sparsity, and compilation passes.</div><div>• Manage research projects and communications with client research teams.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>About you</b></div><div><br /></div><div>• You are fluent in English, and have excellent communication skills. You are at ease explaining complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.</div><div>• You’re not afraid of contributing to a big codebase and can find yourself around independently with little guidance.</div><div>• You’ve a deep understanding of quantization trade‑offs, hardware constraints, and compiler stacks</div><div>• You’re expert with PyTorch or JAX; strong C++/CUDA or low‑level performance skills a plus; production‑grade Python.</div><div>• You don’t need roadmaps: you just do.
