Research Scientist Graduate; Multimedia Standards; Global Frontier Tech Program

We are looking for talented individuals to join our team in 2027. As a graduate, you will get opportunities to pursue bold ideas, tackle complex challenges, and unlock limitless growth. Launch your career where inspiration is infinite at our Company.

Successful candidates must be able to commit to an onboarding date by end of year 2027. Please state your availability and graduation date clearly in your resume.

• Design, develop, implement, and optimize creative algorithms for image/video (including but not limited to 2D video, multiview video, 360-degree video, point cloud, light field, etc.) compression
• Design, develop and implement novel algorithms for file formats, system, transport protocols
• Research and develop image/video processing and objective matrix for subjective quality evaluations
• Actively participate in standardization forums: MPEG, DASH, 3
  
  GPP, JVET, AVS
• Follow up on state‑of‑the‑art algorithms in standardization work and conference/journal papers
• Draft standard contributions, patent applications and academic papers

• Achieving much higher compression efficiency than current encoders
• Keeping complexity and power use within acceptable limits
• Ensuring encoding and decoding work smoothly across different platforms
• Efficiently compressing new types of smart data like tokens
• Effectively representing semantic information

• Traditional video coding is reaching its limit. Smart video coding can go beyond these limits and achieve much better video compression.
• New types of smart data, like tokens, will use more bandwidth in future applications. Compressing these data will greatly improve how videos are transmitted and stored.
• If smart video coding and representation become a standard, they will quickly gain market share and have big potential for valuable patents.
• Efficient smart video coding and representation can save a lot of bandwidth and storage, directly creating financial gains.

• Individuals who are completing or recently completed a PhD in Software Development, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• Strong computer science fundamentals (algorithms, data structures, software design) and problem‑solving skills
• Have published papers in academic conferences or journals in the subject
• Rich experience and interest in multimedia standards (e.g., for image/video compression, file format, system, transport)
• Familiar with C/C++
• Have good team spirit and communication skills

• Good understanding of the state‑of‑the‑art compression/transmission algorithms
• Experiences on JVET reference software or AVS reference software
• Experience in the development of video coding standards
• Experience in patents applications
• Familiar with Neural Network‑based image/video coding and processing
• Familiar with Python, Py Torch
