- Lead and contribute to cutting-edge AI model research that leads to publications on top-tier Audio/ML conferences.
- Independently design and implement algorithms, train advanced AI models on large datasets, and evaluate their performance.
- Develop novel deep learning techniques to achieve state-of-the-art accuracy within the constraints of on-device and real-time execution.
- Collaborate with other research scientists and software engineers to develop innovative deep learning techniques for audio use-cases.
- Communicate the experimental results and the recommendations clearly, both within the group as well as to the cross-functional groups.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Currently in the process of obtaining a PhD in the field of Artificial Intelligence or related field.
- Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire, and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment.
- Research experience in one or more of these areas: machine learning, deep learning, audio/speech processing, ML model compression, or related fields.
- Experience building novel computational models in audio or speech application domains using machine learning and/or signal processing.
- Experience with Python/shell scripts/Matlab/C/C++ or similar.
- Experience working with machine learning libraries such as Pytorch, Tensorflow.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Intent to return to degree-program after the completion of the internship.
- Proven track record of publications at ICASSP, Interspeech, WASPAA, IWAENC, IEEE TASLP, Neurips or similar.
- Demonstrated software engineering experience via an internship, work experience, coding competitions, or widely used contributions in open source repositories (e.g. Github).
- Experience solving complex problems and comparing alternative solutions, trade-offs, and diverse points of view to determine a path forward.
- Experience working and communicating cross-functionally in a team environment.
- Strong background in one or more areas in Machine Learning such as: 1) Experience with developing scalable machine learning models that can evolve with newer device generations with minimal additional data, 2) Experience with techniques for model compression and/or deploying ML models on MIPS/Memory/Power constrained devices, 3) Experience with large scale model training, implementing algorithms, and evaluating performance with objective or subjective audio metrics.
- Deep subject matter expertise in one or more areas in speech/audio signal processing such as: 1) Audio playback signal processing algorithms (such as compressors, limiters, EQs), 2) Adaptive system identification, noise reduction, sound source localization, beamforming, adaptive filters (such as echo/feedback cancellation), 3) Spatial audio and room acoustics.
Public Compensation:
$7,800/month to $11,293/month + benefits.
