Some systems are expected to run on millions of PlayStations in homes, making high run-time performance crucial. You should stay up to date with competition and the industry’s latest advances and academic developments. The role also involves close collaboration with teams in Europe, the U.S., and Japan, as well as technical communication of the ideas and solutions developed.

What we're looking for

  1. Extensive experience with modern Deep Learning (PyTorch/TensorFlow): You will be expected to make decisions about data and architectures, implement pipelines for training and validation, and develop and deploy models in production.
  2. Experience with C++ programming and strong debugging skills.
