Machine Learning Researcher

Job description

Job Description: We are seeking a Machine Learning Researcher to join our team and help advance the state of the art in human-centric generative video models. Your work will focus on improving expression control, lip synchronisation, and overall realism in models such as WAN and Hunyuan. You’ll collaborate with a world-class team of researchers and engineers to build systems that can generate lifelike talking-head videos from text, audio, or motion signals—pushing the boundaries of neural rendering and avatar animation. We are hiring remotely across the EMEA region. Key Responsibilities - Research and develop cutting-edge generative video models, with a focus on controllable facial expression, head motion, and audio-driven lip synchronisation. - Fine-tune and extend video diffusion models such as WAN and Hunyuan for better visual realism and audio-visual alignment. - Design robust training pipelines and large-scale video/audio datasets tailored for talking-head synthesis. - Explore techniques for controllable expression editing, multi-view consistency, and high-fidelity lip sync from speech or text prompts. - Work closely with product and creative teams to ensure models meet qualit...
