Job description
Huawei Canada has an immediate opening for an Intern Research Engineer.
About the team:
The Intelligent Testing Technology Team, currently a part of the Waterloo Research Centre, is at the forefront of integrating large language models (LLMs) with formal methods to advance artificial intelligence. By harnessing LLMs' strengths in natural language processing and generation, this team explores their synergy with the precision of formal verification techniques. As part of this team, you will collaborate with industry leaders on groundbreaking projects and contribute to shaping the future of technology.
About the job:
Conduct advanced research to explore and apply state-of-the-art LLM and AI techniques to improve software engineering processes, including requirements analysis, system design, modelling, and automated software testing.
Develop novel frameworks and methodologies for integrating LLMs into software engineering workflows. This includes applying prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), self-consistency methods, reflection techniques, search and planning algorithms, and evaluation metrics to enhance system performance and decision-making.
Design and implement techniques that combine symbolic reasoning with generative AI models, aiming to bridge the gap between data-driven and logic-based approaches to problem-solving in software systems.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams of researchers, engineers, and product experts to integrate AI-driven solutions into real-world software systems engineering challenges. Communicate research findings through academic publications and industry reports.
Stay at the forefront of LLM advancements and related AI technologies, identifying opportunities for innovation and contributing to developing next-generation software systems engineering tools and techniques.
