Research/Software Engineer

Communications applications and devices are getting smarter and using more sophisticated AI, yet the voices remain robotic and unnatural. Until now, the cost and time to build a custom voice has been prohibitive. VocaliD creates personalized digital voices at scale for use on any device that speaks. Our proprietary voice search and speech blending algorithms leverage our “Human Voicebank”, a collection of 3.5 million of recordings crowdsourced from around the world. Our breakthrough is that we only need 2-­3 seconds of someone’s voice to (re)create a voice when combined with recordings of a matched speaker from the Voicebank.

Join our dynamic team as we push the envelop on innovation while having real social impact!

Responsibilities:
-­ Create tools for filtering and parsing recorded voices
-­ Implement machine learning algorithms to match donor and recipient voices
-­ Enhance source-­filter separation and voice conversion algorithms
-­ Design and implement novel algorithms for tracking and monitoring speech changes
-­ Create a framework for algorithmic synthesis of voices from donor samples
-­ Implement a SaaS framework for voice deployment

Required Qualifications:
-­ MS or PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering, Computer Science or related field
-­ Experience programming in C/C++, Python, Java
-­ Experience productizing algorithms from prototypes in Matlab (or other)
-­ Experience with Digital Signal Processing and ideally speech/voice technologies
-­ Experience with Windows and Linux
