Intel Emergent AI Research Lab is creating the next generation of AI systems, pushing the boundaries of research and technology to produce a positive impact in society. You have now the opportunity to join our world-class team of international researchers and engineers, working together to unleash the power of AI at scale.

Our lab is currently working on multiple research problems combining ideas from multiple domains, including Virtual Worlds/Simulation, Machine Learning, Computer Graphics, 3D geometry, and Computer Vision. Our research on Virtual Worlds and synthetic data generation will redefine the way AI models are built and deployed in the near future, directly benefiting the fields of robotics, autonomous driving, among many others.

We are looking for research scientists passionate about one or several of the topics below:

• 3D reconstruction of large indoor and outdoor environments

• AI approaches to create photorealistic 3D contents from images/videos (e.g., NeRF-like techniques, GANs, etc.)

• Generative methods to boost photorealism in computer graphics

• Differentiable and neural rendering

• Leveraging virtual worlds and simulation as an engine to build new AI solutions

• Probabilistic programming and its application to generating procedural contents

• Domain adaptation, and transfer learning from Virtual Worlds/Simulation

You will be responsible for conceiving, researching, prototyping, and publishing new techniques in one of the domains listed above. You are expected to have a strong knowledge of mathematics, algorithmic techniques, and machine learning. You will also need to have a comprehensive understanding of the state of the art, and to be a regular contributor to top scientific venues (e.g., CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, SIGGRAPH). The successful candidate will also possess strong verbal and written communication skills and a team-oriented mindset.

You will become part of a company which continues to change the world through its brilliant people. To reward the amazing contributions of our people we offer a market competitive compensation & benefits package including plenty of family and flexible work benefits (i.e. the opportunity for part time home office work), programs that focus on your health and wellbeing, many development opportunities and enough time to relax, re-charge and retreat.

We believe in flexible working models. Intel is an equal opportunity employer.
