Job description

Misinformation is a critical societal challenge, especially as we enter the generative AI era. As part of the Complex Data Lab’s Misinformation Mitigation team, the candidate will lead development of misinformation mitigation systems. They will work with professors Reihaneh Rabbany and Jean-François Godbout, lead researcher Dorsaf Sallami, and numerous others on the team (15+ researchers), taking approaches developed in our research towards real world testing and actualization.

In this role, the candidate will act primarily as a software engineer, playing a key role in maintaining, scaling, and improving a web app that uses our AI systems to help users better evaluate information veracity. This platform helps users assess uncertain or potentially misleading information, use LLMs and other AI tools to evaluate the input and collect evidence, then provide the user with that evaluation in an understandable and practical form. The developer will maintain, extend, and improve the existing backend and frontend systems and deployment infrastructure that support the web application and related tools, including browser extension. These systems will be tested in societally important contexts like upcoming elections, and improved upon, with the eventual aim of mitigating misinformation at scale and greatly helping people make more informed judgments.

Main responsibilities

  • Design, implement, maintain, and scale the backend systems powering the platform, combining research results and deployment-ready frameworks.
  • Own backend infrastructure and deployment workflows, including GCP, PostgreSQL, environment configuration, and production reliability.
  • Support and improve existing frontend deployments and integrations.
  • Maintain data pipelines and storage. Advise on overall design, such as feasibility and efficacy of different approaches, cost estimates, and alternatives where needed.
  • Advise student researchers on best practices and help with experiments that demand substantial engineering.

Required qualifications

  • BSc degree in Computer Science or a related field
  • 5+ years of experience building large-scale software and web applications
  • Strong experience with web development frameworks like Next.js, CSS, HTML5, etc.
  • Strong LLMOps skills
  • Solid knowledge of Python
  • Database management experience (e.g., Mongo)
  • Experience with threading and concurrency
  • Experience with containerization
  • Experience with testing and version control
  • Experience with APIs, web services and RESTFul conventions.
  • Proficient English (our team includes numerous international collaborators and English is the lingua franca)

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience with closed-source LLM APIs (especially OpenAI; others a bonus)
  • Experience deploying open and closed-source LLMs
  • Experience with vector databases and RAG
  • Proficiency with web scraping
  • Experience with GCPor other leading cloud platforms
  • Experience developing browser extensions for popular web browsers

Benefits

  • Be surrounded by experts in their field, passionate and exciting people
  • Stimulating workplace, with the possibility of interacting with Mila’s researchers
  • Competitive salary
  • Maintain a work/life balance with our flexible working hours
  • Located at the heart of Little Italy, in the trendy Mile-Ex neighborhood
  • Flexibility on preferred working style (remote and hybrid options available)

We want to know you

At Mila, diversity is important to us. We value a work environment that is fair, open and respectful of differences. We encourage anyone who wants to work in an ecosystem that is constantly evolving and stimulated to contribute to the application and definition of a healthy and inclusive culture, to apply. Please note that only selected candidates will be contacted.

Job description

La désinformation est un défi sociétal critique, particulièrement à l'ère de l'IA générative. Au sein de l'équipe d'atténuation de la désinformation du Complex Data Lab, la personne retenue dirigera le développement de systèmes d'atténuation de la désinformation. Elle travaillera avec les membres du corps professoral Reihaneh Rabbany et Jean-François Godbout, la chercheuse principale Dorsaf Sallami, ainsi que de nombreux·euses autres partenaires au sein de l'équipe (plus de 15 spécialistes de la recherche), afin de passer des approches développées en recherche aux tests et à l'actualisation en contexte réel.

Dans ce rôle, la personne agira principalement en tant que spécialiste en génie logiciel, jouant un rôle clé dans la maintenance, la mise à l'échelle et l'amélioration d'une application Web qui utilise nos systèmes d'IA pour aider les usagers et usagères à mieux évaluer la véracité de l'information. Cette plateforme aide le public à évaluer des informations incertaines ou potentiellement trompeuses, à utiliser des modèles de langage (LLM) et d'autres outils d'IA pour évaluer les données et recueillir des preuves, puis à fournir cette évaluation sous une forme compréhensible et pratique. La personne responsable du développement assurera la maintenance, l'extension et l'amélioration des systèmes existants de l’arrière‑plan (backend), de l’interface (frontend) et de l'infrastructure de déploiement qui soutiennent l'application Web et les outils connexes, y compris une extension de navigateur. Ces systèmes seront testés dans des contextes sociétaux d'importance, comme les élections à venir, et seront améliorés dans le but ultime d'atténuer la désinformation à grande échelle et d'aider grandement la population à porter des jugements plus éclairés.

Responsabilités principales

  • Concevoir, mettre en œuvre, assurer la maintenance et mettre à l'échelle les systèmes de l’arrière‑plan (backend) propulsant la plateforme, en combinant les résultats de recherche et les cadres de travail prêts pour le déploiement.
  • Prendre la responsabilité de l'infrastructure de l'arrière‑plan et des flux de travail de déploiement, incluant GCP, PostgreSQL, la configuration de l'environnement et la fiabilité de la production.
  • Soutenir et améliorer les déploiements et les intégrations de l’interface (frontend) existants.
  • Assurer la maintenance des pipelines de données et du stockage. Conseiller sur la conception globale, notamment sur la faisabilité et l'efficacité des différentes approches, les estimations de coûts et les solutions de rechange au besoin.
  • Conseiller les étudiant·e·s chercheur·e·s sur les meilleures pratiques et aider à la réalisation d’expériences exigeant une ingénierie substantielle.

Qualifications requises

  • Diplôme de baccalauréat en informatique ou dans un domaine connexe.
  • Plus de 5 ans d'expérience dans la création de logiciels et d'applications Web à grande échelle.
  • Solide expérience avec les cadres de développement Web tels que Next.js, CSS, HTML5, etc..
  • Fortes compétences en LLMOps.
  • Solide connaissance de Python.
  • Expérience en gestion de bases de données (par ex., Mongo).
  • Expérience avec le filage (threading) et la concurrence.
  • Expérience avec la conteneurisation.
  • Expérience avec les tests et le contrôle de version.
  • Expérience avec les API, les services Web et les conventions RESTful.
  • Maîtrise de l'anglais (notre équipe compte de nombreux·euses partenaires à l'international et l'anglais est la langue de travail).

Qualifications souhaitables

  • Expérience avec les API de modèles de langage (LLM) à code source fermé (particulièrement OpenAI ; les autres constituent un atout).
  • Expérience dans le déploiement de LLM à code source ouvert et fermé.
  • Expérience avec les bases de données vectorielles et la génération augmentée par récupération (RAG).
  • Maîtrise du moissonnage Web (web scraping).
  • Expérience avec GCP ou d'autres plateformes infonuagiques de premier plan.
  • Expérience dans le développement d'extensions pour les navigateurs Web les plus populaires.

Avantages

  • Évoluer au sein d'une communauté de spécialistes dans leur domaine, de personnes passionnées et inspirantes.
  • Milieu de travail stimulant, offrant la possibilité d'interagir avec les membres de la recherche de Mila.
  • Salaire concurrentiel.
  • Équilibre entre vie professionnelle et vie personnelle grâce à nos horaires de travail flexibles.
  • Bureaux situés au cœur de la Petite Italie, dans le quartier branché du Mile‑Ex.
  • Flexibilité quant au mode de travail privilégié (options de télétravail et de travail hybride offertes).

Nous voulons vous connaître

À Mila, la diversité nous tient à cœur. Nous valorisons un environnement de travail équitable, ouvert et respectueux des différences. Nous encourageons toute personne souhaitant œuvrer dans un écosystème en progression continue et stimulée à contribuer à l’application et la définition d’une culture saine et inclusive, à postuler.
