Game Developer Intern Jobs in Massachusetts (NOW HIRING)

MERL is looking for a self-motivated intern to work on problems at the intersection of multimodal large language models and embodied AI in dynamic indoor environments. The ideal candidate would be a PhD student with a strong background in machine learning and computer vision, as demonstrated by top-tier publications. The candidate must have prior experience in designing synthetic scenes (e.g., 3D games) using popular graphics software, embodied AI, large language models, reinforcement learning, and the use of simulators such as Habitat/SoundSpaces. Hands on experience in using animated 3D human shape models (e.g., SMPL and variants) is desired. The intern is expected to collaborate with researchers in computer vision at MERL to develop algorithms and prepare manuscripts for scientific publications.

Required Specific Experience

• Experience in designing 3D interactive scenes
• Experience with vision based embodied AI using simulators (implementation on real robotic hardware would be a plus).
• Experience training large language models on multimodal data
• Experience with training reinforcement learning algorithms
• Strong foundations in machine learning and programming
• Strong track record of publications in top-tier computer vision and machine learning venues (such as CVPR, NeurIPS, etc.).
