Software Engineer, Multimedia & Multimodal AI

Applied AI (AAI) is Meta’s organization focused on making our AI models best-in-class, starting with coding. Within AAI, the MultiMedia & MultiModality team covers the multimedia domain across every modality, on both the input and the output side of a model: image, video, audio, speech and music. We work directly with research, model-training and engineering partners across MSL, TBD and FAIR. Current problems include evaluating video experiences, diagnosing multimedia model behavior, producing domain-expert agent tasks, and building the data and measurement pipelines multimodal capabilities are trained and judged against.

About The Role

You will take a modality or a capability area, decide what data is worth producing and how it should be measured, and carry it from an open question through to a pipeline that runs and a measurement the org relies on.

This is a multimodal role, not a text-only role. You will work across image, video, audio and speech, as model inputs and as model outputs, and the data and evaluations you own will cover media, not text alone.

The role sits close to research. You will translate what researchers need into data and evaluation the team can produce at scale, and bring their findings back into what we build next.

You will join a newly formed team, so setting direction, standards and review practice are a critical part of the job.
