<p>Meta is seeking Research Scientists to join its Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) organization, focused on making significant advances in AI. We publish groundbreaking papers and release frameworks/libraries that are widely used in the open-source community. The team is working on the industrial leading research on building foundation models for audio understanding and audio generation. We are also closely working with vision research teams on pushing the frontier of multimodality (audio, video, language) research.</p> <p>Our teams research is focusing on audio and multimodality. Individuals in this role are expected to be recognized experts in identified research areas such as artificial intelligence, speech and audio generation and audio-visual learning. Researchers will drive impact by: (1) publishing state-of-the-art research papers, (2) open sourcing high quality code and reproducible results for the community, and (3) bringing the latest research to Meta products for connecting billions of users. They will work with an interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and cross-functional partners, and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and research facilities.Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. PhD degree in AI, computer science, data science, or related technical fields, or equivalent practical experience. 2+ years of experience holding an industry, faculty, academic, or government researcher position. Research publications reflecting experience in related research fields: audio (speech, sound, or music) generation, text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis, text-to-music generation, text-to-sound generation, speech recognition, speech / audio representation learning, vision perception, image / video generation, video-to-audio generation, audio-visual learning, audio language models, lip sync, lip movement generation / correction, lip reading, etc. Familiarity with one or more deep learning frameworks (e.g. pytorch, tensorflow, …) Experienced in Python programming language. Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire, and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment. First-authored publications at peer-reviewed conferences, such as ICML, NeuRIPS, ICLR, ICASSP, Interspeech, ACL, EMNLP, CVPR, and other similar venues. Research and engineering experience demonstrated via publications, grants, fellowships, patents, internships, work experience, open source code, and / or coding competitions. Experience solving complex problems and comparing alternative solutions, trade-offs, and diverse points of view. Experience working and communicating cross functionally in a team environment. Experience communicating research findings to public audiences of peers.</p>
