As an organization, Google maintains a portfolio of research projects driven by fundamental research, new product innovation, product contribution and infrastructure goals, while providing individuals and teams the freedom to emphasize specific types of work. As a Research Scientist, you'll setup large-scale tests and deploy promising ideas quickly and broadly, managing deadlines and deliverables while applying the latest theories to develop new and improved products, processes, or technologies. From creating experiments and prototyping implementations to designing new architectures, our research scientists work on real-world problems that span the breadth of computer science, such as machine (and deep) learning, data mining, natural language processing, hardware and software performance analysis, improving compilers for mobile platforms, as well as core search and much more.As a Research Scientist, you'll also actively contribute to the wider research community by sharing and publishing your findings, with ideas inspired by internal projects as well as from collaborations with research programs at partner universities and technical institutes all over the world.In this role, you will focus on languages with vast amounts of data as well as those with limited data availability such as Indian, African and other languages in the NBU market. To address languages in the NBU markets you will explore the techniques including, data augmentation, incorporating external knowledge via Large Language Models (LLM), and Neural Network (NN) architectures and objectives that can bridge the quality gap when compared with tier one languages where data availability is not a problem. You will bring multiple modalities (speech, text and image) and enhancement/robustness techniques to one model.Responsibilities

Generate the impact of research results across organizations and in the research community by authoring research papers.Assist in research growth by sharing research trends and best practices within the community by reviewing academic papers, and serving on program committees and grant panels.Deliver on large portions of a project by defining the data structure, framework, design, and evaluation metrics for research solution development and implementation. Identify timelines and obtain resources needed.Identify new and upcoming research areas by interacting with potential external and internal collaborators. Develop long-term research strategy and plans to expand the impact of Google research.Identify complex but defined problems or gaps in existing technology and engage stakeholders and leaders to address them.Google is proud to be an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer.
