Why work at Nebius
Nebius is leading a new era in cloud computing to serve the global AI economy. We create the tools and resources our customers need to solve real-world challenges and transform industries, without massive infrastructure costs or the need to build large in-house AI/ML teams. Our employees work at the cutting edge of AI cloud infrastructure alongside some of the most experienced and innovative leaders and engineers in the field.

Where we work
Headquartered in Amsterdam and listed on Nasdaq, Nebius has a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, North America, and Israel. The team of over 800 employees includes more than 400 highly skilled engineers with deep expertise across hardware and software engineering, as well as an in-house AI R&D team.

The role

AI Studio is a part of Nebius Cloud, one of the world’s largest GPU clouds, running tens of thousands of GPUs. We are building an inference & fine-tuning platform that makes every kind of foundation model — text, vision, audio, and emerging multimodal architectures — fast, reliable, and effortless to train & deploy at massive scale.

This role will require expertise in distributed LLMs training and inference.

Your responsibilities will include: 

  • Enhancing fine-tuning methodologies - both LoRA-based and full-parameter - for cutting-edge LLMs (e.g., GPT-OSS, Kimi K2, DeepSeek V3/R1, GLM-4.5), focusing on both model quality and training efficiency

  • Researching and implementing advanced inference optimization techniques, such as speculative decoding, quantization, and large-scale draft model training

  • Re-implementing state-of-the-art open-source LLM architectures in JAX

We expect you to have:

  • A profound understanding of theoretical foundations of machine learning and reinforcement learning.

  • Deep expertise in modern deep learning for language processing and generation

  • Substantial experience with training large models on multiple computational nodes

  • Reasonable understanding of performance aspects of large neural network training (sharding strategies, custom kernels, hardware features etc.)

  • Strong software engineering skills (we mostly use Python)

  • Deep experience with modern deep learning frameworks (we use JAX)

  • Proficiency in contemporary software engineering approaches, including CI/CD, version control and unit testing

  • Strong communication and leadership abilities

Nice to have:

  • Previous experience working with language models or other similar NLP technologies.

  • Familiarity with important ideas in LLM space, such as MHA, RoPE, ZeRO/FSDP, Flash Attention, quantization

  • A track record of building and delivering products (not necessarily ML-related) in a dynamic startup-like environment.

  • Strong engineering skills, including experience in developing large distributed systems or high-load web services.

  • Open-source projects that showcase your engineering prowess

  • Excellent command of the English language, alongside superior writing, articulation, and communication skills.

What we offer 

  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
  • Opportunities for professional growth within Nebius.
  • Flexible working arrangements.
  • A dynamic and collaborative work environment that values initiative and innovation.

We’re growing and expanding our products every day. If you’re up to the challenge and are excited about AI and ML as much as we are, join us!
