What are the responsibilities and job description for the Research Scientist Manager - ML Modeling & Applied Research position at META?
Reality Labs at Meta is seeking Research Scientist Manager with experience in machine learning research to advance our pioneering work in neuromotor interfaces, which has grown out of the acquisition of CTRL-labs. We're building a practical neural interface drawing on the rich neuromotor signals that can be measured non-invasively with single motor neuron resolution. This technology will become one of the main pillars for interaction with the virtual and augmented world. We are a multi-disciplinary team of researchers investigating the nature of human neuromotor signals (i.e., electromyography or EMG), developing novel machine learning methods to infer a user's intent, and creating novel interaction techniques and user experiences. Help us unleash human potential by removing the bottlenecks between user intent and action. EMG signals are similar in many ways to other neural signals and audio signals and can be analyzed using many of the same approaches. For example, the task of transcribing characters typed on a keyboard from wrist-based EMG is closely analogous to that of automatic speech-recognition. We're looking for people who want to shape the future of this technology and explore this exciting new territory with us.
Research Scientist Manager - ML Modeling & Applied Research Responsibilities
- Build cutting-edge machine learning and signal processing models (event detection, sequence-to-sequence, signal separation, time series regression, etc.) to advance neuromotor interface capabilities.
- Collaborate with engineering and Human-Computer Interactions (HCI) teams to deploy models that leverage fundamental scientific knowledge into new technology and user experiences.
- Use quantitative research methods to define, iterate upon and advance key areas of our research agenda.
- Develop research-grade code for deployment in research prototypes. Work across organizational boundaries to solve our biggest problems.
