The opportunity
The Future of Computing Research team is an applied research team within OpenAI’s Consumer Devices group. We study how AI systems perceive people and their surroundings, and we turn that research into capabilities for future products.
What you'll do
Research and develop multimodal perception and authentication methods across: visual, audio, and other sensing signals.
Explore how specialized perception models and larger multimodal models can work together.
Design data, training, and evaluation approaches that improve performance in real-world conditions.
Study model behavior, robustness, and failure modes across sensing, data, and deployment environments.
Integrate and validate new capabilities in real-time or resource-constrained systems.
Work with hardware, firmware, software, and product teams to turn research into working systems.
What they're looking for
- Have a strong background in computer vision, audio or speech machine: learning, multimodal learning, or sensing.
- Have experience developing specialized machine learning models, larger multimodal models, or both.
- Have brought research ideas into practical systems, prototypes, or products.
- Know how to design experiments, build evaluations, and investigate model behavior.
