AI Research Scientist, Computer Vision

Meta Meta · Big Tech · Menlo Park, CA

Research Scientist role focused on advancing AI, specifically in vision models, 3D reconstruction, and generation, with the goal of building spatial and physically-aware AI for future human-computer interaction paradigms. The role involves conducting research, building and optimizing models, and working with large datasets.

What you'd actually do

  1. Build models that can estimate underlying 3D properties from 2D observations
  2. Conduct research and work with models in 3D reconstruction and generation
  3. Define, build and benchmark new capabilities needed for the next generation of AI
  4. Train and optimize state-of-the-art machine learning and neural network methodologies
  5. Work with and create large datasets, and contribute to data annotation engines
