Staff Artificial Intelligence Research Engineer - (SJ2026YM)

What You’ll Do 

• Design, implement, and evaluate novel machine learning and deep learning algorithms, concentrating on Large Language Models (LLMs), automated speech recognition (transcription), and unified multimodal architectures. 
• Iterate on AI model development, starting from the data needed for training, architecture, input/output representations, evaluation, and deployment for complex sequence-to-sequence and multimodal tasks. 
• Collaborate with other research engineers to prototype and validate complex solutions from academic literature in natural language processing and speech. 
• Conduct experiments to benchmark new techniques and evaluate model behavior. 
• Develop tools and frameworks to support scalable and reproducible research and development. 
• Communicate research findings to leadership in a concise, and convincing manner. 
• Stay current with the latest developments in Generative AI and Speech/Language Models and identify relevant innovations. 
• Assist in transitioning research prototypes into production-ready systems. 

Minimum Education Requirement: Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, Computational Sciences, Machine Learning, Informatics.
