Job description
We are looking for Research Scientist Interns to join the Meta AI Speech teams in London. These teams at Meta create spoken language technology to make it faster and easier for people to build community and connect with others around the world. We are part of the AI Reality Labs Research organization, whose mission is to conduct product-motivated research in ML/AI and design, develop and deploy state of the art algorithms to the rest of Meta. We work on all aspects of AI for speech and audio processing, including speech recognition, speech synthesis, speaker identification, keyword spotting, and acoustic event detection with an emphasis on multimodal understanding, i.e. by augmenting acoustic information with visual cues or cues from other sensors available on AR devices. Our work is largely focused on the areas of voice interfaces, including speech technologies for RayBan Stories, Portal devices, Oculus VR headsets, Augmented Reality, the Metaverse, and video understanding, including transcription, captioning, and content understanding.As a Research Scientist Intern, you will help us develop innovative models and algorithms and apply them to large-scale production speech tasks. This is a 2023 internship opportunity with start dates from May to September. To learn more about our research, visit https://research.facebook.com.
