LLM & Agent Algorithm Expert - TikTok Search
TikTok, Singapore
What you will do
- Search LLM Foundation: Lead the R&D and iteration of the search-domain LLM foundation, integrating search knowledge for rapid implementation; own the pre-training / post-training pipeline for search LLMs (ultra-long-text / colloquial-text pre-training, image-text / video multimodal representation, e-commerce product multimodal representation learning) as well as inference optimization (long context, model efficiency, quantization / pruning / distillation / inference acceleration).
- Agent Foundation & Harness: Own the 0→1 / 1→N build-out of the search Agent execution framework (Harness) — unified orchestration of tool calling, planning, memory, and environment interaction; design multi-agent cluster scheduling and collaboration algorithms (task allocation, dynamic scheduling, communication / alignment / conflict resolution); build the Agent Foundation platform to empower the team's engineers / algorithm researchers / PMs with full-stack, lightweight development and rapid launch (multi-agent / single-agent + skill-based / memory), supporting the core search intelligent assistant and vertical-search scenario modules.
