• Tinker with emerging models, tools, datasets, and techniques to understand their practical potential. Build lightweight prototypes, run experiments, and explore unconventional combinations to turn interesting ideas into evidence
• Identify high-leverage opportunities to enrich or restructure our existing assets (internal and external), including multimodal and audiovisual sources as well as approaches for generating high-quality training corpora that could improve model performance, product features, or decision-making
• Translate research into actionable outputs: opportunity briefs, experiment proposals, success criteria, and recommendations on what to explore next
• Own and advance a research program around priority data opportunity areas, including designing and running experiments and proof-of-concepts to validate hypotheses and de-risk ideas
• Partner with product, prototypers, engineers by providing well-scoped ideas and serving as a research advisor
• Maintain living knowledge bases and briefings that keep the broader team informed
• Evaluate emerging techniques and papers for relevance in our context
• Contribute the research perspective to prioritization and longer-term opportunity discussions
• Support business operations in ad hoc requests
