Role

Who you are

You'll enjoy working here if your favorite tech stack is Typescript, Node.js, and MongoDB, and you love to stay up to date with the latest technologies
You have a good understanding of low-level systems programming, potentially acquired through the practice of a programming language such as C, Go, or Rust
You have experience working collaboratively across the stack

What the job involves

In this unique role, you will directly impact the evolutions of our Machine Learning Hub, which is rapidly becoming a go-to destination for companies and individuals to host and run their ML models
You'll work with a supportive team of talented engineers while enjoying a lot of autonomy to test your implementations

Our take

Large language models, which recognize and generate text, are already being used to auto-complete sentences, power chat bots, moderate content, summarize news articles, and translate text online. However, many of these advances are happening behind closed doors, stifling innovation and raising ethicacy concerns.

To combat this, Hugging Face is building the "GitHub of machine learning". It’s a community-driven platform with a ton of repositories, where developers can create, discover and collaborate on ML models, datasets and ML apps. This work led to the creation of BLOOM in 2022, an open-access LLM with similar architecture to OpenAI’s GPT, but that is multilingual by design.

The company also launched the Hugging Chat Assistant, an open-source tool to create personalised chat assistants, in direct competition to OpenAI's paid service ChatGPT Plus. By continually creating value based on a global community, not just for Microsoft or Google, HuggingFace should be able to carve out its own path for success.
