Junior Research Scientist in the Division of Engineering (Electrical and Computer Engineering) - Dr. Muhammad Shafique

The eBRAIN Lab (https://ebrain4everyone.com) in the Division of Engineering at New York University Abu Dhabi invites applications for a Junior Research Scientist position with a a Bachelor's or Master’s degree with less than 5 years of experience to work in the area of research and development (R&D) of next-generation Edge-AI and Embodied-AI Systems with tiny-LLMs, tiny-VLMs, tiny-VLAs; Agentic-AI systems; and Robust Generative AI targeting hallucination, safety and security issues. Besides robustness, systems should also be optimized for high performance and energy-efficiency to realized efficient Embodied/Edge-AI implementations. A key focus will be on investigating novel methods and their full-system deployment in real-world applications from different fields (like autonomous systems, healthcare, and robotics) with cross-validation.

Prof. Shafique’s lab has many-years of R&D experience in cross-layer design and optimization for building energy-efficient and robust brain-insp...
