Job Description

We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science.

We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world.

World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached.

Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you.

About the role

We’re looking for Machine Learning Engineers who can help us build new multimodal AI systems for media generation. The ideal candidate for this role has a combination of strong engineering skills, extensive experience working on machine learning projects, and thrives in fast-paced, high-ownership environment.

What you’ll do

Develop innovative research projects in computer vision, focusing on generative models for image and video
Work with a world-class engineering team pushing the boundaries of content creation on the browser
Collaborate closely with the rest of the product organization to bring cutting-edge machine learning models to production

What you’ll need

5+ years of relevant engineering or research experience in machine learning, computer vision and/or graphics
Solid knowledge of at least one machine learning framework (e.g. PyTorch, Tensorflow)
Very strong programming skills and ability to write clean and maintainable research code
Deep interest in building human-in-the-loop systems for creativity
Ability to rapidly prototype solutions and iterate on them with tight product deadlines
Strong communication, collaboration, and documentation skills
