AI Research Scientist - Multimodal Machine Learning
Oculus

At Reality Labs Research (RL-R), our goal is to explore, innovate and design novel interfaces and hardware subsystems for the next generation of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. We are driving research towards a vision of an always-on augmented reality device that can enable high-quality contextually relevant interactions across a range of complex, dynamic, real-world tasks in natural environments; to achieve this goal, our team draws on and fundamentally advances methods and knowledge from artificial intelligence, multimodal machine learning, computer vision, and signal processing. We are looking for a skilled and motivated researcher with expertise in multimodal machine learning and large scale multimodal representation learning. More broadly, the chosen candidate will work with a diverse and highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities.

AI Research Scientist - Multimodal Machine Learning Responsibilities:

• Lead, collaborate, and execute on research that pushes forward the state of the art in multimodal reasoning and generation research.
• Work collaboratively with other research scientists to develop novel solutions and models in service of contextualized AI for augmented reality.
• Working on curation of large datasets across many modalities (e.g., vision, audio, IMU, sEMG).
• Leading experimental design, implementation, evaluation, and reporting results to enable new capabilities for multimodal LLMs.
• Mentor other team members. Play a significant role in healthy cross-functional collaboration.

Minimum Qualifications:

• PhD degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering or a related field
• Publication record in machine learning, AI, computer science, statistics, applied mathematics, data science, or related technical fields
• 6+ years of experience in one or more of the following areas: Deep Learning, NLP, Multimodal, Computer Vision, Speech
• 6+ years of experience developing end-to-end ML pipelines with a focus on dataset preprocessing, model development and evaluation, software integration, and real-time deployment
• Experience writing software (Python and C/C++) and executing complex machine learning experiments
• Research experience in one or more of these areas: NLP, computer vision, Multimodal, Speech
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Publication record in AI conferences like NeurIPS, EMNLP, ACL, ICCV, CVPR, ICML, NAACL, ICLR, Interspeech, ICASSP.
• Programming experience in Python and hands-on experience with frameworks such as PyTorch.
• Experience with developing machine learning models at scale from inception to deployment.
