Job（岗位）: Research Scientist, Conversational AI | Oculus
Type（岗位类型）: Artificial Intelligence | Engineering, Machine Learning, Research
Citys（岗位城市）: Redmond, WA
Date（发布日期）: 2022-2-22
Summary（岗位介绍）
We are looking for a skilled and motivated researcher with expertise in conversational AI, goal-oriented dialogue systems, task-oriented dialogue systems, or related fields to join our team. More broadly, the chosen candidate will work with a diverse and highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities.
In this position, you will work with an interdisciplinary team of domain experts in embodied artificial intelligence (AI), human–computer interaction, natural language understanding, computer vision, and cognitive and perceptual science on problems that contribute to creating human-centered contextual interactive systems. The position will involve developing novel multimodal and natural language dialogue systems designed to rapidly disambiguate the user’s intent in the contextually aware human–machine interface that will underpin our future AR/VR devices. These models will leverage large-scale real-world data sets and the scale of Meta machine-learning infrastructure, and will be deployed into AR/VR prototypes to uncover research questions on the path to the next era of human-centered computing.
Qualifications（岗位要求）
Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta.
Experience holding a faculty, industry, or government researcher position
PhD degree in computer science, machine learning, artificial intelligence, or related technical field and publication track record
5+ years of experience defining and leading advanced research in NLP, natural language understanding, natural language generation, conversational AI, or dialogue systems
3+ years of experience in at least one deep-learning software library (e.g., PyTorch, Caffe2, TensorFlow, Keras, Chainer), which should include formulation, training, and evaluation of new algorithms and writing reusable Python modules
3+ years of experience in building research-grade NLP, speech, or deep-learning systems
Description（岗位职责）
Develop and execute a cutting-edge research program aimed at goal-oriented/task-oriented dialogue systems in next-generation, contextually aware human–machine interfaces
Develop tasks, data-collection strategies, modeling approaches, and evaluation criteria to deliver on research program objectives
Work towards long-term ambitious research goals, while identifying intermediate milestones
Work collaboratively with other research scientists to develop novel solutions and models in service of contextualized AI for augmented reality
Mentor MS/PhD interns and postdocs and collaborate with external academic groups to advance our research goals
Additional Requirements（额外要求）
Experience leading a research team in solving modeling problems using AI/ML approaches
Experience working with modern tools in natural language processing, including transformers, conversational systems, chatbots, language models, or similar
Familiarity with concepts from Bayesian optimal experimental design, information theory, and multimodal machine learning
Proven track record of achieving results as demonstrated by grants, fellowships, patents, as well as first authored publications at conferences such as ACL, EMNLP, NAACL, SIGDIAL, AAAI, ICML, NeurIPS, or similar
