Research Engineer, Machine Learning

Mistral AI is at the forefront of democratizing artificial intelligence through their high-performance, open-source models and solutions. As a Research Engineer in Machine Learning, you'll be integral to building and optimizing large-scale learning systems that power their open-weight models. The role offers two distinct paths: joining the Platform RE Team to enhance shared training frameworks and data pipelines, or embedding within a research squad focusing on areas like Alignment, Pre-training, or Multimodal development.

The position requires expertise in large-scale machine learning systems, with opportunities to work on cutting-edge deep-learning techniques including sparsified 70B+ runs and distributed training across thousands of GPUs. You'll collaborate closely with Research Scientists, turning innovative ideas into scalable, production-ready code. The role combines both research and practical implementation, requiring strong Python skills and experience with modern ML frameworks.
