Job description

Member of Technical Staff, Computer Vision

Odyssey is pioneering world models, the next frontier of artificial intelligence. By learning from the real world, Odyssey is training a new kind of generative model, capable of generating cinematic, interactive worlds in real-time. Odyssey’s mission is to reinvent film, gaming, and beyond.

Founded in late 2023 by Oliver Cameron (Cruise, Voyage) and Jeff Hawke (Wayve, Oxford AI PhD), Odyssey has recruited a world-class team of AI researchers from Cruise, Waymo, Wayve, Tesla, Microsoft, Meta, and NVIDIA; lead computer graphics researchers from EA, Ubisoft, and Valve; and technical artists behind Hollywood blockbusters like Dune, Godzilla, Avengers, and Jurassic World.

Odyssey has raised significant venture capital from GV, EQT Ventures, Air Street Capital, DCVC, Elad Gil, Garry Tan, Soleio, Jeff Dean, Kyle Vogt, Qasar Younis, Guillermo Rauch, Soumith Chintala, and researchers from OpenAI, DeepMind, Meta, and Midjourney. Ed Catmull, the founder of Pixar, serves on Odyssey’s board.

Who You Are

• You’re a staff-level or greater engineer, with demonstrated experience in CV topics related to 3D Reconstruction.
• You are passionate about taking state-of-the-art computer vision algorithms into production engineering.

What You'll Do

• You will design and develop computer vision algorithms that support development of our world models, such as sparse reconstruction, dense reconstruction, pose estimation, scene understanding.
• You will write robust software implementations so that these algorithms can be integrated into Odyssey’s data pipeline to run on large-scale data in production workloads.
• You will collaborate with cross-functional engineering and research teams.
• You will provide guidance and advice to product and data operations to ensure we have high-quality data being processed by what you build.
