TL;DR · Senior Machine Learning R&D Engineer

Senior Machine Learning R&D Engineer – Matterport As a Senior Machine Learning R&D Engineer, you will join the team responsible for transforming vast amounts of 3D spatial data into foundational reconstruction models. You will research and build next-generation neural reconstruction and generative systems to create photorealistic 3D spaces from sparse or noisy captures. Your daily work involves developing generative approaches like diffusion models and video generation to fill occlusions, while advancing state-of-the-art techniques in neural rendering, including Gaussian splatting and NeRFs. You will design scalable training pipelines for multi-view datasets involving images, point clouds, and meshes. The role requires proficiency in PyTorch and Python, along with expertise in computer vision, 3D reconstruction, and large-scale model training. You will solve complex problems regarding scene completion and novel view synthesis to improve the fidelity of digital twins.

What you'll do

  • Research, design, and train large-scale foundational models for 3D reconstruction and generative scene completion.
  • Advance state-of-the-art neural rendering techniques like Gaussian splatting and NeRFs for indoor and outdoor spaces.
  • Develop generative models to fill occlusions, synthesize unobserved viewpoints, and enhance the realism of digital twins.
  • Design and optimize scalable training and inference pipelines for large 3D datasets including images, video, point clouds, and meshes.
  • Translate research prototypes into production-ready systems integrated into the core capture and reconstruction platform.
  • Establish rigorous evaluation methodologies and benchmarks for reconstruction quality and generative plausibility.
  • Contribute to the architectural design and strategic roadmap of the company's foundational reconstruction models.
  • Generate intellectual property through patents and publications while representing the company’s work to the research community.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree from an accredited, not-for-profit, in-person university or college.
  • Experience in machine learning research and development focused on computer vision, 3D data processing, neural rendering, or generative modeling.
  • Proficiency in PyTorch and strong programming skills in Python.
  • Solid understanding of deep learning architectures, optimization techniques, and evaluation methodologies.
  • Experience with data manipulation and analysis libraries such as NumPy and Pandas.
  • Demonstrated ability to conduct independent research and implement novel solutions for complex, real-world datasets.
  • Master's or Ph.D. degree in a related quantitative field (preferred).
  • 5+ years of industry experience in applied ML R&D, specifically training and shipping large models to production (preferred).
