Research Scientist, Multi-Modal Human Understanding

Meta is seeking a Research Scientist to advance multi-modal AI technologies for human understanding and synthesis. In this role, you will develop Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and video foundation models that enable machines to perceive, interpret, and generate rich representations of human behavior, expression, and interaction. Your research will span multi-modal reasoning, video understanding, and generative synthesis, enabling more natural and intuitive human-computer interaction at scale.

Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta

• 2+ years of experience in multi-modal AI research, including hands-on work with Vision-Language Models, video understanding, or human-centric AI systems
• 2+ years of experience implementing and training large-scale neural networks using frameworks such as PyTorch, with experience on transformer-based architectures
• Experience designing and executing experiments to evaluate multi-modal model performance, including quantitative analysis across vision, language, and video benchmarks
• Experience writing production-quality or research-quality code in Python for multi-modal AI applications
• Experience developing or fine-tuning Vision-Language Models for human understanding tasks
• Experience with video foundation models, temporal transformers, or large-scale video pretraining
• Track record of contributing to published multi-modal AI research at venues such as CVPR, ICCV, or NeurIPS
• Experience with generative models for human synthesis including diffusion models, GANs, or autoregressive models for video or motion generation
