Research Scientist Intern, Language & Multimodal Foundations

Meta is seeking Research Interns to join Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) CodeGen team. This team is committed to advancing the field of Artificial Intelligence by making fundamental advances in technologies to help generate and understand our code. We are seeking individuals passionate in areas such as Natural Language Processing, Deep Learning, Compilers, Programming Languages, and Reinforcement Learning. Our interns have an opportunity to make core algorithmic advances and apply their ideas at an unprecedented scale.Our teams are looking for candidates with expertise such as: machine translation, natural language understanding and generation, language modeling, LLM pretraining, dialogue, code generation, code optimization, compilers, planning, efficient decoding, non-autoregressive methods, static analysis.Our internships are twelve (12) to sixteen (16), or twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.
