Research Scientist Intern (Trust and Safety - CV/NLP/Multimodal LLM) - 2027 Start (PhD)

Written by the T&S Network from TikTok's posting.

Research internship on the algorithm team that builds computer vision, NLP and multimodal models to detect content and behaviors violating community guidelines and related regulations. The work targets violating content on TikTok, using multimodal and large-model approaches.

What you'd do

• Develop computer vision or multimodal models that recognize violating content on TikTok
• Explore large multimodal and vision models such as CLIP, BLIP, Flamingo and ViT variants
• Explore applying LLMs to business scenarios, including pre-training, zero-shot and few-shot learning
• Mine hard cases to improve model performance on violating content
• Continuously optimize the training framework for training large models

What it asks for

• Currently pursuing a PhD in computing or an adjacent technical field
• Research experience in at least one of computer vision, multimodality, or LLMs
• Proficiency with at least one deep learning framework such as PyTorch or TensorFlow
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, logical thinking, communication and collaboration skills
• Publications in top AI conferences or journals such as CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICML or ICLR (preferred)
