Ai Research Engineer • Mid-Level

Who you are

You have a strong background in AI research, particularly in multimodal perception models — your experience includes working with neural networks and understanding the intricacies of conversational avatars. You thrive in environments where you can turn abstract ideas into practical applications, and you enjoy the challenge of pushing the boundaries of what's possible in AI. Your coding skills are robust, particularly in Python, and you have a solid grasp of machine learning frameworks and libraries. You are not just a researcher; you are a creator who is eager to contribute to a team that values diversity and innovation.

You understand the importance of emotional intelligence in AI and are passionate about building systems that can engage in meaningful conversations. Your experience with deep learning and natural language processing allows you to model complex interactions between machines and humans effectively. You are comfortable with both theoretical concepts and practical implementations, making you a valuable asset to any AI-focused team.

Desirable

Experience with video and audio modeling is a plus, as is familiarity with autoregressive and predictive architectures. You are open to exploring new technologies and methodologies that can enhance the capabilities of AI systems. A background in computer vision will also be beneficial as you work on projects that require a nuanced understanding of visual data.

What you'll do

In this role, you will conduct cutting-edge research on foundational multimodal models, focusing on their application in conversational avatars. You will collaborate with a team of talented engineers and researchers to develop models that can process and generate video, audio, and language sequences. Your work will involve designing experiments, analyzing results, and iterating on models to improve their performance and reliability. You will also have the opportunity to mentor junior team members and contribute to the overall growth of the AI team.

You will be responsible for translating research findings into practical applications, ensuring that the models you develop can be integrated into Tavus's AI Humans platform. This will involve close collaboration with product and engineering teams to align research objectives with business goals. You will also participate in discussions about the ethical implications of AI and contribute to creating systems that prioritize user trust and safety.
