Senior Research Engineer – Voice

Key Highlights

• Develop and evaluate streaming and speech-to-speech systems, enabling low-latency, interactive voice synthesis.
• Adapt models for new conditioning inputs (emotion, speed, prosody, speaker control, etc.).
• Implement post-training optimization techniques (quantization, pruning, distillation) to improve efficiency and latency in real-time speech generation.
• Integrate and test novel architectures, such as neural codecs, diffusion, or flow-matching models, to enhance realism and responsiveness.
• Contribute to defining new evaluation metrics for conversational speech, including latency-aware and online MOS prediction systems.
