Job Description

OPPO Research Center is seeking a passionate and innovative Research Scientist to advance our next-generation AI hardware platforms—including AI Glass/Earphone/etc.—through cutting-edge generative AI research. You will drive the design, training, and deployment of multimodal intelligence models that seamlessly integrate vision, language, and action. As part of our collaborative team, you will co-design algorithms and hardware, translate research into real-world products, and publish at top-tier AI conferences.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead end-to-end research on generative AI models, focusing on vision-language or other multi-modal architectures
• Design and implement large language model (LLM) training pipelines and efficient inference strategies optimized for AI hardware
• Propose and implement AI features to enable new and smooth user experience on AI hardware
• Co-design model architectures and hardware primitives to maximize performance, power efficiency, and real-time responsiveness
• Collaborate closely with hardware engineers, software developers, and product teams to integrate research prototypes into production systems
• Publish research findings in premier AI conferences (e.g., ICLR, CVPR) and represent OPPO at workshops and symposia

Qualifications:

Minimum:

• Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline, with a focus on AI/ML
• Strong background in generative AI, with hands-on experience developing vision-language or other multimodal models
• Practical expertise in training and optimizing large language models for both cloud and edge inference
• Proficiency in deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow) and distributed training systems
• Demonstrated track record of publishing in top-tier AI conferences (e.g., ICLR, CVPR, NeurIPS) or equivalent industrial R&D impact
• Excellent programming skills in Python and familiarity with C++/CUDA for performance-critical components

Preferred:

• Experience with model distillation, large language model/vision-language model distillation
