PhD Internships at our Company aim to provide students with the opportunity to actively contribute to our products and research, and to the organization's future plans and emerging technologies.\nPhD internships at Our Company provides students with the opportunity to actively contribute to our products and research, and to the organization's future plans and emerging technologies. Our dynamic internship experience blends hands-on learning, enriching community-building and development events, and collaboration with industry experts.\nApplications will be reviewed on a rolling basis - we encourage you to apply early. Please state your availability clearly in your resume (Start date, End date). \nTeam Introduction: The Applied Machine Learning (AML) team is committed to the research and deployment of the next-generation of machine learning core technologies. This covers large pretrained models and device-cloud collaboration learning, as well as wide applications in search, recommendation, advertising, auditing, federated learning, and more. The team has a strong foundation in scientific research, engineering and product implementation. Our team members have rich backgrounds covering natural language processing (NLP), computer vision (CV), multimodality, graph computing, search and recommendation, federated learning and other fields, and have published more than 100 top-tier conference papers.\nTopic Content: Large-scale recommendation systems are being increasingly adopted across products such as short-video, text-based community, and image platforms, with modality-specific information playing an ever-growing role in recommendations.\nIn ByteDance's practice, we have found that modality information serves effectively as generalizable features to support recommendation and other business scenarios. Research on end-to-end ultra-large-scale multimodal recommendation systems holds significant potential.\nBuilding on an algorithm-engineering co-design approach, we aim to further explore directions including multimodal co-training, models with hundreds of billions of parameters, and end-to-end modeling with extended sequence lengths.\nOn the engineering side, research directions include: multimodal sample representation; high-performance multimodal inference engines built on the PyTorch framework; high-performance multimodal training framework development; and the application of heterogeneous hardware in multimodal recommendation systems.\nOn the algorithm side, research directions include: designing effective recommendation-and-ads multimodal co-training architectures, sparse MoE, memory networks, and mixed precision.\nTopic Challenges: \n1. High difficulty in unifying multimodal representations and achieving efficient fusion.\n2. Extremely high computational costs for training and inference of ultra-large-parameter models.\n3. Difficulty balancing stability and efficiency in end-to-end modeling with long sequences.\n4. Significant complexity in algorithm-engineering co-design and heterogeneous hardware adaptation\nTopic Value: \n1. Technical value:\nAchieve breakthroughs in multimodal representation fusion and training/inference bottlenecks for ultra-large-scale models; refine the co-design framework for algorithms and engineering; advance heterogeneous hardware adaptation and the development and deployment of domestically developed high-performance frameworks.\n2. Business value:\nEnhance recommendation accuracy and generalization capability in multimodal scenarios; overcome the modality limitations of existing recommendation systems; empower multiple products including short-video and text-based community platforms; reduce computational costs; and drive scalable business growth.\n任职要求 / Requirements\nMinimum Qualifications\n1. Currently pursuing PhD in in Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline;\n2. Proficiency in 1 or more programming languages such as C/C++/Go/Python/Java in a Linux environment;\nPreferred Qualifications\n1. Familiarity with Kubernetes architecture and extensive experience in cloud-native system development;\n2. Experience with at least one mainstream machine learning framework (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, MXNet);\n3. Familiarity with Django, Flask, or related technologies, with backend development experience;\n4. Priority will be given to candidates with in-depth research results and extensive practical experience in relevant fields: AI Infrastructure, HW/SW Co-Design, High-Performance Computing, ML Hardware Architecture (GPU, accelerators, networking), Machine Learning Frameworks, ML for Systems, Distributed Storage.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4752,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"phd","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Advertising","Recommendation Systems","Digital Media","Video & Photo Sharing"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T16:14:44Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":59,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.819,"p_room":0.72,"age_days":192,"expected_fill_days":310,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:mid","crowd:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-25T05:49:26Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/bytedance-research-scientist-intern-large-scale-machine-learning-systems-sysml-global-frontier-tech-recruitment-program-2027-start-phd","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/bytedance-research-scientist-intern-large-scale-machine-learning-systems-sysml-global-frontier-tech-recruitment-program-2027-start-phd.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-26T03:50:44Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":5267,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-27T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":13},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=13"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fbytedance-research-scientist-intern-large-scale-machine-learning-systems-sysml-global-frontier-tech-recruitment-program-2027-start-phd"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fbytedance-research-scientist-intern-large-scale-machine-learning-systems-sysml-global-frontier-tech-recruitment-program-2027-start-phd"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fbytedance-research-scientist-intern-large-scale-machine-learning-systems-sysml-global-frontier-tech-recruitment-program-2027-start-phd"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/bytedance-research-scientist-intern-large-scale-machine-learning-systems-sysml-global-frontier-tech-recruitment-program-2027-start-phd\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fbytedance-research-scientist-intern-large-scale-machine-learning-systems-sysml-global-frontier-tech-recruitment-program-2027-start-phd"}]}
