  • Create tools, infrastructure, and documentation to accelerate research.
  • Perform code reviews that improve software engineering quality.
  • Learn constantly, dive into new areas with unfamiliar technologies, and embrace the ambiguity of Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality problem solving.

Preferred Qualifications

  • PhD degree in Computer Science or related field plus 3+ years experience
  • First or lead author publications in computer vision, machine learning or computer graphics peer-reviewed conferences (e.g. CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, CHI, NeurIPS, ICLR, etc.).
  • Experience with biosignals, behavioral signals, or egocentric data from wearable sensors
  • Experience with Multimodal Deep Learning approaches and research
  • Experience with Large Language Models
  • Experience with C++
  • Experience with non-ML computer vision, especially with OpenCV
  • Experience with 3D engines such as Unreal or Unity
  • Experience working in Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality
  • Experience developing software in a research environment
