Lenovo Digital Trust Lab is seeking a hands-on ML Engineer to join our Hybrid AI Security team. This role focuses on building ML-based AI Guardrails for real-time AI applications, with an emphasis on lightweight and efficient deployment across edge and cloud environments.

You will work at the intersection of machine learning, AI security, and platform engineering — designing models, evaluation frameworks, and end-to-end ML pipelines that help detect unsafe, adversarial, or policy-violating AI interactions, in alignment with Lenovo's Trust, Privacy, and Responsible AI principles.

Job Responsibilities

• Design and maintain ML training and fine-tuning pipelines for LLMs and ML models.
• Develop fine-tuning workflows (e.g., LoRA/PEFT) with auditability, reproducibility, and policy enforcement.
• Implement ML-side security controls: data filtering hooks, dataset labeling, training instrumentation, and detection/mitigation of training-time threats (data poisoning, backdoors, contamination, leakage).
• Integrate model evaluation and testing frameworks focused on security, robustness, and safety into the build phase.
• Collaborate with data scientists and security researchers to embed security and responsible AI capabilities into data preparation and fine-tuning workflows.
• Collaborate with engineers to deploy models on edge devices and cloud environments.
  
  

• 5+ years of experience as an ML Engineer or Applied ML Engineer.
• Strong hands-on experience with Python and ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX).
• Hands-on experience training or fine-tuning ML models or LLMs.
• Solid understanding of ML pipelines: data ingestion, preprocessing, training, evaluation, and serving.
• Familiarity with security and Responsible AI concepts (data integrity, bias, robustness).
  
  

• Experience building AI Guardrails and knowledge of LLM fine-tuning techniques (LoRA, QLoRA, PEFT, adapters) and related tooling (Hugging Face, LLaMA Factory, Unsloth).
• Knowledge of training-time attack vectors (data poisoning, backdoor attacks, distribution shift) and experience implementing data scanning, validation, or quality checks in ML pipelines.
• Experience integrating evaluation tools (security, safety, or RAI) into CI/CD or ML pipelines; exposure to secure ML build practices (experiment tracking, versioning, lineage).
• Familiarity with governance or compliance-driven ML workflows; Java/Kotlin/Rust is a bonus.
