The TikTok Eng-AI Innovation Center is at the forefront of exploring cutting-edge AGI technologies, including large language models (LLM) and multi-modal LLMs that encompass video, image, audio, text, and code. Our goal is to enhance the understanding of user creations on the TikTok platform, which will improve user experience in searching and recommendations, as well as accurately identify and combat internet abuse and fraud. Additionally, we aim to optimize the TikTok codebase through our developed LLM, making coding more accessible for our engineers. Successful candidates will be expected to drive core technology development for large language model code direction, focusing on improving code comprehension, reasoning, and generation capabilities in real-world production codebases.
