Speech Researcher/Engineer

Описание

We are looking for a versatile and motivated Speech Researcher/Engineer to join our Research team. This role is centered around acoustic modeling, including ASR, speaker modeling, and acoustic event detection, but extends to a broad range of machine learning and AI tasks.

You will work on high-impact projects involving the training and optimization of deep learning models, conducting evaluations, improving production systems, and contributing to research-driven initiatives.  A key part of this role is the ability to work with complex, non-trivial codebases, especially in areas like speaker identification and diarization.

As a Speech Researcher/Engineer, you will:

·       Develop and improve ASR, speaker modeling, and acoustic event detection systems.

·       Analyze and optimize performance of existing speech models (WER, diarization error, latency, etc.).

·       Dive into and extend complex, production-grade codebases for training, inference, and evaluation.

·       Contribute to dataset preparation and model training pipelines.

·       Participate in broader ML/AI efforts as needed, beyond speech-focused tasks.

·       Collaborate with cross-functional teams across research, engineering, and product.

If you want to join our journey, you’ll need:

·       B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

·       Solid background in machine learning, deep learning, and speech/audio modeling - 3+ years of experience, preferably 5+.

·       Strong Python skills and experience working in Linux environments.

·       Familiarity with deep learning libraries (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow) and training workflows.

It will be even better if you have:

·       Experience with speaker recognition, speaker diarization, acoustic event detection.

·       Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, OCI).

·       Exposure to MLOps
