Nuance Research Fellow

Nuance Labs is building innovative AI technologies, focusing on photorealistic and real-time AI avatars. The Nuance Research Fellowship offers early-career researchers the opportunity to engage in cutting-edge research in Multimodal LLMs and generative modeling, with the potential for a full-time position at the conclusion of the fellowship.

Responsibilities:

• Own a concrete research problem from framing through experiments, analysis, and integration into the Nuance stack
• Work on frontier Multimodal LLM systems spanning audio, video, language, and real-time interaction
• Explore and adapt modern generative modeling techniques, including flow matching, diffusion, autoregressive modeling, and hybrid approaches where they fit
• Read papers, reproduce key results, and turn promising ideas into production-grade experiments
• Design, instrument, debug, and interpret training and evaluation runs with scientific rigor
• Build evaluation harnesses, benchmarks, and analysis tooling for real-time conversational agents
• Take research-grade prototypes and turn them into systems that ship
• Work closely with senior researchers and engineers across the team; ramp on the stack fast
