This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a AI Researcher — Distillation based in Switzerland.
Join a highly technical research environment focused on advancing the efficiency and performance of modern AI models.
You will research techniques that transform large, resource-intensive models into smaller, faster, and more deployable systems without sacrificing quality.
The role combines fundamental machine learning research with hands-on experimentation and real-world engineering challenges.
You will have the opportunity to explore model distillation across large language models, long-context architectures, and inference-constrained environments.
Your work will move from research ideas and rigorous experiments into production systems with measurable impact.
You will collaborate closely with engineers while contributing to publications, technical research, and potentially open-source projects.
This opportunity is particularly suited to researchers who want meaningful ownership of their work and the ability to see their ideas deployed in practice.
