Job Description
The successful candidate will work in close collaboration with academic and industrial partners, delving deep into the verification of Large Language Models (LLMs) based software programs. The focus of the position includes designing and implementing innovative verification methods to ensure the reliability and accuracy of LLM-based software programs, and actively engaging in the design and development of a system that generates high-quality data utilising LLMs. The project involves establishing methods to validate the efficacy of the prompting processes in getting accurate responses from LLMs and developing strategies to verify the overall reliability of the LLM-based software program. The postdoctoral researcher will further refine this approach, aiding in the development of a system optimised for high-quality data generation using LLMs. The successful candidate is expected to spend one or more internships in industry and liaise with industrial partners.
Requirements
- A PhD degree (or near completion) in algorithmic verification
- machine learning
- databases
- or a related field. Strong algorithm-design and coding skills
- along with proficiency in using popular Machine Learning development frameworks
- such as TensorFlow and PyTorch. A thorough understanding of the underlying techniques of Large Language Models
- and experience in fine-tuning or customising such models. Published research articles in top-tier journals or conferences. In exceptional cases
- industry experience with a solid background in industry-based software engineering that has led to highly innovative products or results could partially or fully replace the publication requirements. Ability and willingness to liaise with industrial partners and to work on problems of practical relevance. Interest and ability to perform translational research
- applying existing theoretical results to practical problems of industrial relevance. You are expected to take on the responsibility of supervising students and research assistants. Proficiency in written and spoken English is essential. (Knowledge of German is not necessary.)
