The Generative AI Org at Meta is seeking a strong technical leader to join our team and work on the next generation of LLMs, particularly focusing on massive-scale datasets. As a technical leader of our team, you will play a critical role in building our series of LLama models. This year we published and released LLama2 open for research and commercial use, and launched Meta AI in our chat apps and on Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses. We're currently training our next-gen model Llama 3, and we're building massive compute infrastructure to support our future roadmap. In addition to supporting the entire LLM ecosystem publicly with the LLama series, Meta AI is building an assistant that is social, more capable, more personal, and more ubiquitous.
