Machine Learning Engineer Internship, WebML - US Remote
At Hugging Face, we’re on a journey to democratize good AI. We are building the fastest growing platform for AI builders with over 5 million users & 100k organizations who collectively shared over 1M models, 300k datasets & 300k apps. Our open-source libraries have more than 400k+ stars on Github.
About the Role
Hugging Face maintains a large collection of open source machine learning libraries, including transformers, diffusers, and datasets, just to name a few. However, these are all implemented in Python, meaning they aren’t as easily accessible to JavaScript/TypeScript developers. So, in order to grow the Hugging Face ecosystem, we decided to build projects like transformers.js , diffusers.js , and huggingface.js with the primary goal of bridging the gap between web development and machine learning.
WebML (Web Machine Learning) unlocks a range of new possibilities for building web applications by enabling models to run locally in the browser. Combining on-device machine learning with the plethora of APIs that browsers provide, empowers developers to create low-latency, interactive, and privacy-focused applications that can scale and reach users without them needing to install anything!
This internship operates at the intersection of software engineering, machine learning, and open-source community building. The focus will be to expand the Hugging Face ecosystem to web developers through the creation and maintenance of ease-to-use JS/TS machine learning libraries.
By the end of the internship, the candidate will have touched on many aspects of web machine learning, including: converting and optimizing models for in-browser inference (ONNX, quantization), enabling models to run in-browser at near-native speeds (WebGPU, WebNN, WASM), building demo applications to showcase new features, and fostering a collaborative open-source community.
