Overview
Extropic is looking for junior ML scientists to join our residency program on either a part-time or full-time basis. This is a flexible program that can be similar to an internship (minimum 3 months) but we give our residents far more autonomy than most internships.
Our hardware massively accelerates certain kinds of probabilistic inference, and residents will help pioneer the science of training models in the thermodynamic paradigm.
