We are looking for people who are energized by complex problems and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.
The Opportunity:
Miris is seeking exceptional, outcome-focused Applied Researchers (Senior+) to join our fully remote R&D team. You will navigate the fast-moving Gaussian splatting and radiance field research, pushing the bleeding edge to deliver exceptional immersive streaming experiences to low-powered mobile devices. This applied, highly collaborative role involves taking ideas from theory to production rollout, partnering with rendering and cloud teams to build a seamless end-to-end system that transforms varied user inputs into exceptional spatial experiences.
What You'll Do:
- Conduct applied research into novel methods for representing, compressing, and streaming static and animated 3D content, with a strong focus on varied radiance field primitives and efficiency for low-power mobile AR/VR devices
- Quickly develop proof-of-concepts and transition successful experiments to production-ready code to advance our streaming pipeline
- Design and evaluate algorithms for scene reconstruction, 3D compression, and adaptive streaming based on network conditions and device capabilities
- Drive solutions to multi-disciplinary problems like streaming animated content, real-time relighting, and integrating trained content into a live AR environment
- Own end-to-end customer outcomes by understanding customer needs and translating them into innovative technology solutions that drive customer success.
- Proactively follow and apply the latest computer graphics research related to novel view synthesis on mobile devices, such as radiance fields, differentiable rendering, and photogrammetry
What You'll Bring:
- 5+ years of industry experience with a MS or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related quantitative field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Proven expertise in novel view synthesis and 3D graphics research (e.g., radiance fields, Gaussian splatting, NeRF), evidenced by a strong understanding of modern rendering pipelines and a track record of delivering advancements to the state of the art as seen in publications in top-tier conferences or delivery of significant industry products.
- Excellent programming skills in Python with aptitude working in large systems and ability to leverage AI to accelerate problem solving in your daily work
- Demonstrated ability to be outcome-focused and move quickly in a fast-paced environment
