Odyssey
is building Hollywood-grade generative worlds
, where beautiful scenery, characters, lighting, and motion can be both generated and directed. Our mission is to deliver a better way to create films and games.
Odyssey was founded in late 2023 by Oliver Cameron (ex-Cruise, Voyage, Y Combinator alum) and Jeff Hawke (ex-Wayve, Willow Garage, Oxford AI PhD), two veterans of self-driving cars and AI. They've since recruited a world-class team of experienced ML 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 intends to become Hollywood's AI team.
Odyssey has raised 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, Midjourney, and Pixar.
Who You Are
You're a staff-level or greater researcher & engineer, with demonstrated experience in computer graphics and machine learning. This includes topics such as rendering, modelling surfaces and light, and making all this work efficientlyYou are passionate about R&D and pushing the state-of-the-art in AI.You have the ability to bring your ideas from 01 with new software systems and data.What You'll Do
You will develop algorithmic methods which bring machine learning and computer graphics together, working out how to use the best of both worlds to enable our users to generate dynamic, photorealistic worlds.
