Deadline: January 8, 2018

The Google AI Residency Program — previously known as the Google Brain Residency Program — is a 12-month research training role designed to jumpstart or advance your career in machine learning research. Residents will have the opportunity to work alongside distinguished scientists and engineers from various research teams.

The Brain Residency Program was created in 2015 with the goal of training and supporting the next generation of deep learning researchers. With deep learning and other machine learning subfields fast becoming a critical area for a broad range of applications, people from a wide range of disciplines are beginning to realize the importance and impact of this area of research. With growing interest in the field, there is a corresponding need for researchers with hands-on experience in machine learning techniques and methodologies.

Since launch, Googe has welcomed two cohorts of Residents, and they’re now expanding the program’s scope to a broader group of teams doing machine learning research. By drawing on Google’s state-of-the-art resources and research experience, they provide Residents on the program the skills that will enable them to tackle some of the world’s greatest machine learning challenges.

Responsibilities

  • Learn and understand a large body of research in deep learning and/or machine learning algorithms.
  • Work with research mentors to formulate research project(s) and/or novel application(s) of machine learning.
  • Conduct research and publish it in competitive venues.

  • Experience with one or more general purpose programming languages, including but not limited to: C/C++ or Python;
  • Experience with machine learning or deep learning, applications of machine learning to NLP, computer vision, speech, systems, robotics, algorithms, optimization, on-device learning, social networks, economics, information retrieval, journalism, or health care.

Preferred qualifications:

  • Research experience in machine learning or deep learning (e.g., links to open-source work or link to novel learning algorithms).
  • Strong open-source project experience that demonstrates programming, mathematical, and machine learning abilities and interest.
