Research Scientist Revamping the Role of Modern Flash Storage in Accelerating Generative AI Pipelines

100 %

Branche: Informationstechnologie

Region: Generative AI (GenAI) pipelines, especially using the RAG pattern, have attracted a significant amount of community attention due to their widespread use, effectiveness, and potential applicability in a variety of domains. In an ideal case, all data/metadata used in these workflows will be contained in memory. However, DRAM technology faces challenges from multiple fronts as it is not scaling, has a high cost ($/GB), and is energy inefficient. As the performance of Flash-based NVMe devices keeps increasing, the key research question that we are interested in is: how can modern Flash memory and NVMe hardware/software stacks help run data-intensive GenAI pipelines (focus on RAG, i.e. information retrieval and LLM inference)?

Research Questions:

  • What dependencies do RAG pipelines have on storage and how is storage accessed in RAG pipelines?
  • How can Vector DBs benefit from using high-performance NVMe flash arrays that can support millions of small I/O operations per second?
  • How can flash memory help accelerate the inference of LLMs?

Necessary Qualifications:

  • The candidate has obtained a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering or computer science with a focus on (graph) data mining, (graph) databases, data storage, or (generative) AI in the past 5 years.
  • Excellent coding skills in Python and C++, familiarity with Linux environments and software development tools (git/GitHub, IDEs, gcc, virtual machines, and containers, etc.).
  • High level of creativity and outstanding problem-solving ability.
  • Excellent oral and written English and excellent presentation skills.
  • Strong academic record and experience with publishing and presenting at international conferences.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and excellent written and verbal communication.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Background and experience in systems architecture and hardware design.
  • Experience with systems programming and internals (kernel, memory management, hardware, CPU).
  • Experience with data storage and NVMe storage internals and specifications.

Diversity:

IBM is committed to diversity in the workplace. With us, you will find an open, multicultural environment. Excellent flexible working arrangements enable all genders to strike the desired balance between their professional development and personal lives.
