Eon collects large-scale neuroscientific data sets to train machine learning based brain emulations. We believe it is possible to scale this technology in a safe, secure and trustworthy manner in the next decade and empower humanity in unprecedented ways.

Role

Collaborating with a diverse team, including product managers, researchers, and engineering departments, your role involves conducting research on the application of cutting-edge of ML technologies to large-scale neuro datasets and transforming these insights into scalable, production-ready solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Design, train, and fine-tune transformer-based ML models and systems, ensuring their applicability and effectiveness in neuroscience.

  • Develop and maintain production-grade ML systems, ensuring their scalability, efficiency, and reliability.

  • Implement benchmarks that evaluate quality, safety, security, and trustworthiness in ML models and systems developed.

  • Work in tandem with cross-functional teams, including product development and data infrastructure

  • Engage in collaborative research efforts to explore new ML architectures, including image and video transformer models and multimodal systems.

  • Contribute to the creation of state-of-the-art (SOTA) foundation models for both invasive and non-invasive neuroscientific datasets.

Skills

  • Demonstrated exceptional ability (3-5+ years) in ML engineering, particularly with PyTorch, including hands-on experience with training and fine-tuning transformer-based machine learning models.

  • Demonstrated capability in developing production-level machine learning systems.

  • Any of the following

    • Experience with image and video transformer models.

    • Expertise in training multimodal models and experimenting with novel architectures.

    • Experience with applying machine learning techniques to neuroscientific datasets

    • Previous work on scaling laws for modalities

We expect everybody, independent of their role to be

  • Practicing proactive, concise, and clear written communication.

  • Exceptionally output driven and a well-calibrated, fast, autonomous, and diligent problem-solver.

  • Excited about startup athmosphere - high initiative, agile, and a can-do attitude in a fast changing environment.

Representative projects

These are examples of projects that you would be working on when joining us:

  • Using gpt architectures to train a non-invasive brain activity foundation model based on public datasets

  • Implement a modality agnostic ML training pipeline for neuroscientific datasets to train multimodal brain data models

  • Create synthetic data sets based on ML models that helps to align various datasets or improve overall performance of models
