About the role

Research Scientist role focusing on 3D geometry representation and generation, with emphasis on integrating geometry with physics objectives and working towards production-ready models that are validated by physics solvers.

Responsibilities

  • Own a research work-stream: set its technical direction, align priorities with internal and external stakeholders, and apply judgement and taste to drive progress.
  • Design and train generative models over 3D geometry — representations, latent spaces, and the objectives that decide whether generated geometry is physically usable rather than merely plausible.
  • Work against production numerical solvers, so model quality is measured in validated physics rather than proxy metrics.
  • Work with our ML engineers, simulation engineers and customers to turn engineering challenges into mathematical formulations.
  • Champion research directions valuable to the company, nurture more junior colleagues, and publish for both academic and non-academic audiences.

Qualifications

  • PhD in CS, ML, mathematics, physics, engineering or a related field, with demonstrated expertise in generative modelling or learned representations of 3D geometry
  • Relevant industry or research experience in building models/pipelines in PyTorch/CUDA; geometric or 3D data; iterating on architecture and inductive bias; running experiment pipelines with comparable results.
  • Ability to scope and deliver projects, with strong problem-solving skills.
  • Enthusiasm for deep learning and probabilistic methods applied to science and engineering.
  • Publications at premier conferences (e.g., SIGGRAPH, CVPR, NeurIPS, ICML/ICLR) and relevant journals.
