Salary: £60,000 - 100,000 per year

Requirements:

• We are looking for a PhD or MSc in Computer Science, Electronic Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Computer Graphics, or a related field, or equivalent skills evidenced by work experience in the relevant domain.
• We require 5+ years of demonstrable research experience in industry or academia.
• We are looking for strong experience with TensorFlow or PyTorch.
• We require strong Python skills and experience with packages or libraries related to computer vision or graphics.
• We expect evidence of advanced applications in image, video, graphics processing, or computer vision, with at least 3 years of experience for an ML Engineer or 5 years for a Senior ML Engineer.
• We look for evidence of leading technical developments, including at least one research publication in a top-tier conference such as CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, SIGGRAPH, or similar.
• We require a solid background in neural network architectures, including the ability to formulate and test advanced loss functions.
• We value experience designing and testing advanced convolutional, recurrent, transformer-based, diffusion-based, or other task-specific neural network architectures.
