Research Scientist Intern, Adaptive Experimentation (PhD)
Menlo Park, CA | New York, NY
Meta is seeking a PhD Research Intern to join the Adaptive Experimentation team, within our Central Applied Science Org. The mission of the team is to do cutting-edge research and build new tools for sample-efficient black-box optimization (including Bayesian optimization) that democratize new and emerging uses of AI technologies across Meta, including Facebook, Instagram, and AR/VR. Applications range from AutoML and optimizing Generative AI models to automating A/B tests, contextual decision-making, and black-box optimization for hardware design.
PhD Research Interns will be expected to work closely with other members of the team to conduct applied research at the intersection of Probabilistic ML, Bayesian optimization, AutoML, and Deep Learning, while working collaboratively with teams across the company to solve important problems.
Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.Research Scientist Intern, Adaptive Experimentation (PhD) Responsibilities
