Principal Research Scientist Speech & Audio Foundation Models Text-to-speech, voice cloning, speech synthesis, realtime conversational voice.$270,000–$500,000 base plus bonus, equity and benefits (US).

Relocation assistance available.

Visa transfer supported Germany DACH Region | Remote considered in the US, UK and parts of Europe.

Permanent, full-time.

A top end research lab building realtime voice models text-to-speech, speech-to-text and speech-to-speech delivered as an API.

The models run in production behind consumer applications used at very large scale, across health, learning, therapy, companionship, media and gaming.

Text-to-speech, voice cloning, speech synthesis, realtime conversational voice.

The role Build the models that are the product!

This is full-stack research ownership: you frame the question, run the experiments, and ship the result.

Research is only finished when it is in production and measurable.

Responsibilities Train foundation models: pre-training, reinforcement learning, reward modelling, post-training, new architectures, scaling.

Build and improve voice and speech models across TTS, STT and speech-to-speech.

Design the evaluation that proves the work: benchmarks, eval loops, LLM-as-judge, failure analysis.

Evaluation is treated as a research product in its own right, not as a pre-launch checkbox.

Work on frontier problems adjacent to the roadmap: multimodal, agents and tool use, test-time compute.

Take models into production alongside the serving engineering team, inside a sub-200ms latency budget and across 100+ languages.

Essential Hands-on foundation-model training.

Pre-training, RL, reward modelling, post-training, scaling.

Fine-tuning or building on top of someone else's model is a different discipline and is not what this role is.

Real voice or speech research: TTS, STT or speech-to-speech.

Speech-to-speech is the strongest signal; TTS and ASR both count.

Text-only research does not transfer.

Evidence you can point at: papers, shipped models, open-source contributions, or systems in production.

Desirable Evaluation depth: benchmarks, eval loops, quality measurement, failure analysis.

Publications at ICML, ICLR, Neur IPS, EMNLP, ACL, AAAI, Interspeech or ICASSP.

Ph D in ML or NLP, or equivalent practical experience you can point to.

Frontier exposure: multimodal, agents, tool use, test-time compute.

Public work: side projects, open-source, technical write-ups.
