NVIDIA's technology is at the heart of AI revolution, touching people across the planet by powering everything from self-driving cars, robotics, and voice-powered intelligent assistants. We work on new models for speech recognition, speech synthesis, and natural language processing. Our team crafted Jasper, QuartzNet, Talknet and other state-of-the-art neural models for ASR and text-to-speech, and we've also developed new algorithms to accelerate training large models on our GPU cloud.

Be a part of the team that's released new models as part of NeMo - open-source toolkit for Conversational AI and whose models are used by world class companies for applications such as customer service, smart voice assistants, etc. This exciting opportunity will have you collaborating with internal research and product teams, as well as researchers from top machine learning labs, and we are looking for someone who's curious, tenacious, and passionate to join our applied research team to influence and build the next generation of Conversational AI systems!

What you'll be doing:

  • Develop new deep learning models and training algorithms for speech recognition, speech synthesis, information retrieval, machine translation, etc.

  • Transfer your technology to NVIDIA’s software product teams.

  • Publish your research at conferences (NeurIPS, Interspeech, ICASSP).

  • Partner with Deep Learning & AI researchers in leading universities and industrial research labs.

What we need to see:

  • Master’s degree (or equivalent experience) or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, or Applied Math.
