Applied AI/ML Scientist

As an Applied AI Scientist in the FieldML team, you will be responsible for developing and customizing large language models and more broadly large-scale deep learning models to solve specific customer problems. You won't just advise; you will build. You will bridge the gap between state-of-the-art research and real-world applications by helping customers harness the power of the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine (WSE) for their AI initiatives.

We are looking for experienced AI Scientists who are passionate about the "applied" side of machine learning - those who enjoy not just reading papers, but implementing, training, and scaling models to solve complex business and scientific problems. You will work on a diverse range of projects, from training bespoke models from scratch to fine-tuning and optimizing the latest Large Language Models (LLMs) for specific industry verticals, to designing and building components for custom agentic systems.

The ideal candidate has experience in large model training and/or post-training, a deep understanding of training dynamics and model convergence, and expertise in data curation, combined with strong communication skills.
