This role focuses on advancing core multimodal capabilities by integrating vision, language, and other modalities, while ensuring that research outcomes are transferable to stable, enterprise-grade production systems. While our current focus includes multimodal and vision-language technologies, this role is fundamentally about using AI to solve complex problems and growing with evolving models, data modalities, and system requirements. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with multimodal models or systems, deep expertise in at least one core AI domain (CV or NLP), and the ability to bridge research and production deployment.

Job Responsibilities:

  • Develop AI-based solutions to solve complex, real-world problems using appropriate models and data modalities
  • Formulate problems, design approaches, and evaluate solutions from an end-to-end AI system perspective
  • Research, implement, and adapt state-of-the-art AI models (not limited to a specific modality)
  • Build and validate scalable AI pipelines, from data processing to model inference
  • Apply AI technologies—including but not limited to multimodal, CV, and NLP methods—based on problem requirements
  • Translate research ideas into robust, production-ready systems
  • Collaborate with engineering and product teams to deploy and maintain AI solutions
  • Continuously learn and adopt emerging AI techniques and paradigms
