The company is seeking a Research Scientist specializing in generative modeling and diffusion models to bring advanced 3D modeling and machine learning techniques into real-world applications, ensuring their technology remains at the forefront of visual innovation.

Requirements

  • pre-training or post-training of large-scale diffusion models for images, videos, or 3D assets or scenes
  • machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow, especially in the context of diffusion models and other generative models
  • pre-training, post-training, diffusion distillation, etc for diffusion models
  • Strong coding proficiency in Python and experience with GPU-accelerated computing.
  • Familiarity with large-scale training infrastructure (e.g., multi-node GPU clusters, distributed training environments).
  • Experience integrating machine learning models into production environments.
  • Led or been involved with the development or training of large-scale, state-of-the-art generative models

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and train large-scale diffusion models for generating 3D worlds
  • Develop and experiment with post-training for large-scale diffusion models to add novel control signals, adapt to target aesthetic preferences, or distill for efficient inference
  • Contribute hands-on to all stages of model development including data curation, experimentation, evaluation, and deployment.
  • Continuously explore and integrate cutting-edge research in diffusion and generative AI more broadly
  • Act as a key technical resource within the team, mentoring colleagues, and driving best practices in generative modeling and ML engineering

Other

  • Collaborate closely with researchers, engineers, and product teams
  • Collaborate closely with research and product teams to understand and translate product requirements into effective technical roadmaps.
  • Ability to engage effectively with researchers and cross-functional teams, clearly translating complex technical ideas into actionable tasks and outcomes.
  • Comfortable operating within a dynamic startup environment with high levels of ambiguity, ownership, and innovation.
  • 3+ years of experience in generative modeling or applied ML roles, ideally at a startup or other fast-paced research environment
