Dolby's Research Division is seeking a Multimodal Spatial Experiences Researcher to help shape the future of generative volumetric media creation and distribution. Joining the Multimodal Experience Lab within Dolby's Advanced Technology Group, you will collaborate with world-class researchers to advance generative AI techniques that produce spatially consistent volumetric scenes suitable for streaming distribution in Dolby's volumetric formats.
In this role, you'll take the lead in exploring and extending the state of the art-particularly in leveraging generative AI video models to create and augment volumetric scenes, targeting practical distribution formats, combining multiple modalities including video, audio, language, and beyond. We strive to produce experiences where the user feels transported into a scene, suspending their disbelief and embracing the story as it unfolds. Your work will span fundamental research, technology transfer to product teams, and intellectual property development.
What You'll Do

• Conduct cutting-edge research in generative AI video models and their application to volumetric scene creation and augmentation.
• Develop methods to generate spatially consistent 3D Gaussian Splat representations from generative AI video outputs, targeting Dolby's volumetric distribution formats.
• Incorporate multiple modalities including vision, audio, language, and beyond to achieve more than is possible with any one modality alone.
• Define and drive research roadmaps in collaboration with a top-tier research team.
• Apply AI and deep learning techniques to develop novel solutions and enhance existing approaches for volumetric content creation.
• Design and validate algorithms using robust methodologies, quality metrics, and test content.
• Share insights through publications, technical papers, and internal presentations.
• Transfer research outcomes to product groups and contribute to patent applications.
• Stay ahead of the curve by monitoring the latest advances in generative AI, computer graphics and computer vision.

What You Bring

• Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Applied Math, Physics, or related field.
• Strong publication record in top-tier conferences and journals.
• Deep expertise in generative AI video models (e.g., diffusion models, video generation/editing architectures) and their application to 3D-consistent content creation.
• Strong understanding of 3D scene representations, particularly NeRF or Gaussian Splatting.
• Experience with integrating multiple modalities is a plus
• Proven experience in computer graphics / computer vision R&D.
• Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C/C++, or Matlab.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Collaborative team mindset with the ability to work across research and engineering.
• Strong background in deep learning-based methods.

Nice to Have

• Experience with real-time graphics APIs (OpenGL, CUDA, DirectX, Vulkan).
• Familiarity with game engines (Unreal, Unity).
• Experience with XR environments, capture, and devices.
• Experience with video codec pipelines and streaming distribution architectures.
• Familiarity with 3D generative models (e.g., score distillation, multi-view diffusion, feed-forward 3D generation).
