Junior/Senior/Lead Deep Learning Scientist

About Translated Translated is on a mission to allow everyone to understand and be understood, in their own language.


We are a technology-powered professional translation provider.


We partner with over 200 000 professional translators worldwide, in 200 languages.


Our 310 000 clients range from the private person who needs their CV translated to the very big, like Uber and Airbnb.   Our progress is largely powered by our ability to leverage scientific progress and realize the best synergy between humans and machines.


We invest heavily in R D, such as LL Ms applied to translation, expressive speech synthesis, and privacy-preserving training for translation.


We operate as a science-driven startup, so that our scientific innovations quickly make it to production and make a measurable impact on our operations.   The ideal candidate should have a strong enthusiasm for contributing to the design and implementation of Multimodal Foundation Models.


Additionally, they should be capable of coordinating technical, communication, and team activities.


We recruit at different levels of seniority for this project and expect corresponding professional experience and demonstrated maturity to lead projects and teams for the more senior roles.   The project: DVPS Translated has just been awarded a grant on DVPS, a 29M€ , 4-year collaborative research project starting in July 2025, which Translated leads.


DVPS develops the science of multimodal foundation models and deploys them on problems in Earth observation, language and cardiology.


DVPS stands for the project's motto " Diversibus Viis Plurima Solvo" , " Through various paths, I solve many problems".


The project is endowed with computing resources matching its ambition.


We estimate it will run on 30M GPU-hours provided by EuroHPC, running on the major Exascale and Petascale compute infrastructure in Europe.   For maximum impact, all research outcomes of DVPS, such as trained models, datasets, evaluation benchmarks, will be open-sourced on Hugging Face.


What You’ ll Do You will be part of a team of researchers dedicated to DVPS within Translated's AI Research team, which works on several pieces of technology such as Large Language Models, machine translation, speech foundation models, privacy-preserving machine learning.


The AI Research team collaborates closely with product and engineering teams and develops the technology to power Translated's next generation of products.


•   In this role, you will: work with data, compute and algorithms design of deep learning multimodal neural architectures design experiments, implement them in code, run them on large (GPU on HPC) compute, run evaluations monitor and benchmark the state of the art have the opportunity to give guidance to more junior team members such as PhD students and interns coordinate with our partners on our research roadmap adapt the project's pace to the rapid scientific development in our field organize publications and open-sourcing efforts Qualifications Required Junior Master's degree in AI, Computer Science, Deep Learning  demonstrated research and work interests in foundation models Senior completed PhD or 4 years of industry research experience in a relevant field of deep learning, machine learning, either applied (preferably language, clinical medicine, Earth observation, robotics, vision, audio) experience guiding junior researchers, defining a research project and experiments Lead as Senior, with 3 years of directly relevant industry or academic research experience experience in coordinating a team of researchers and defining roadmaps excellent programming skills: Pytorch familiarity with Docker and Unix OS, including running GPU experiments interest in carrying out experimental research relevant scientific publications, teaching and research experience excellent command of English Bonus points if. . .
