Job Description: Junior GenAI Researcher

As a Junior GenAI Researcher, you'll help shape our research direction while learning and growing in a cutting-edge field. You'll assist in developing AI algorithms and tools that power our products, working closely with the product team to align research with real-world applications.

Your focus will be on image manipulation, including controlling aspects like model identity, body proportions, location, image & product consistency, and researching virtual try-on technologies.

If you have some experience in AI research, are eager to learn, and enjoy collaborating with a diverse team, this is a great opportunity to grow in the field.

You probably are:

• Familiar with generative technologies like Diffusion and GAN models—reading those research papers for breakfast.
• A Junior GenAI Researcher with foundational experience in AI and deep learning.
• Academically exceptional, whether through an outstanding university degree, honors, or participation in Olympiads. Perhaps you even completed your degree in high school—regardless of the path, you demonstrate an exceptional ability to learn and master complex topics.

You are also:

• An independent learner, quickly acquiring new skills, tools, and knowledge without needing constant guidance.
• Proficient in Python programming.

Requirements:

• Basic experience in generative research, particularly with GANs or Diffusion models.
• A Bachelor’s degree or currently pursuing one.
• Solid understanding of AI concepts, with a passion for advancing your knowledge.
• Strong Python programming skills.

Nice to have:

• Enthusiasm for learning new tools, techniques, and research areas.
• A desire to contribute to both the research and practical application of AI technologies.
• Some prior exposure to research, especially in computer vision and generative models like GANs or Diffusion models.
