ABOUT THE ROLE

Join a small team building AI technology for synthetic media detection, media forensics, and digital fraud prevention. This role combines rigorous research with hands-on engineering, helping turn promising methods into reliable software for practical digital trust and security challenges.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Investigate methods for synthetic media detection, media analysis, and fraud prevention.
  • Read, assess, and reproduce relevant research, then identify approaches for further development.
  • Design experiments, establish baselines, and evaluate model performance on realistic data.
  • Implement research ideas and collaborate with engineering to bring effective approaches into production.
  • Analyze failure cases and improve model reliability, generalization, and computational efficiency.
  • Document methods and findings, contribute to research papers and technical writing, and help prioritize work around practical problems.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • Strong foundations in machine learning, experimental design, and model evaluation.
  • Experience building, training, and evaluating models with modern machine learning tools.
  • A demonstrated ability to translate research into working software and ship production code.
  • Ability to critically read research papers, design experiments, and clearly communicate methods and findings.
  • Evidence of research and engineering ability through shipped systems, publications, open-source work, or substantial applied projects.
  • Experience in computer vision, audio processing, multimodal learning, media forensics, adversarial robustness, or deployment under real-world latency and reliability constraints is valuable.
  • Comfort taking ownership of open-ended problems in a small team.
