Job description

The Role

We're seeking an AI Engineer to lead the development of AI solutions for 3D model reconstruction and volumetric rendering in immersive XR environments for our client based in London. You’ll be their first AI hire, with the opportunity to define their AI approach and shape future innovation in 6DoF XR.

About the Technology

Our client's immersive format allows users to move freely within pre-recorded content, delivering cinematic-quality visuals without cybersickness, placing viewers inside the experience rather than watching from the outside.

Requirements:

• Strong grasp of modern AI/ML techniques (e.g. differentiable rendering, backprop in 3D pipelines)
• Solid mathematical foundation
• PyTorch or TensorFlow
• Python
• C/C++ and CUDA
• 2+ years’ AI development experience
• Experience with or passion for 3D graphics and visual computing

Responsibilities:

• Develop and deploy AI systems for:
  • 3D object reconstruction from images/video
  • Real-time volumetric rendering and scene optimization
• Contribute AI expertise to a team of experienced 3D/VFX/XR developers
• Drive integration of cutting-edge techniques like:
  • Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs)
  • Gaussian Splatting
  • Layered Mesh Light Field Video
