Team Lead – Computer Graphics/Rendering & ML/Asset Generation
If you are enthusiastic in shaping Huawei’s European Research Institute together with a multicultural team of leading researchers, this is the right opportunity for you!
Huawei Cloud is one of the largest and fastest-growing cloud providers in the world. We rank 2nd and 5th in terms of Cloud market share in China and in the worldwide.
Huawei is the 2nd highest private sector investor in research and the development in the world. With 107,000+ dedicated employees, Huawei has the largest R&D Institute on the planet. In Europe, we have a wide network of 27+ Research Centers dedicated to fundamental and applied technology research, academic research cooperation projects, and strategic technical planning.
Our Huawei Zurich Research Center is embedded in the European network and plays a pivotal role in driving innovation. The research work of our Labs is carried out not only by Huawei's internal research staff but also by our academic research partners in universities across Europe.
The Intelligent Cloud Technology Research Lab in Zurich is in charge of incubating and developing cutting-edge technologies that will shape the next-generation of the Cloud Computing industry.
A major element of our Cloud R&D Lab is a new research group focused on cutting edge research in the area of computer graphics, with a focus on neural representations and cloud, including the future of distributed rendering pipelines with neural building blocks as well as using AI for content generation.
The lab provides an “open research environment” where the internal Research staff are encouraged to drive innovation, publish their research work and attend conferences to exchange with peers. We offer an environment that, like the best universities and research institutes, is open and produces the highest research quality.
For our new Cloud Graphics Innovation Lab in Zurich, we are looking for a high caliber:
