Microsoft
In Microsoft Mesh, people are at the center of everything we do. Our technology aims at bringing people closer together— from remote coworkers socializing, to building deeper connections to global leaders collaborating on the biggest challenges of our time, and everything in-between.
Mixed Reality & AI Lab is the research arm of Microsoft Mesh, and its main office is located in Cambridge, UK. We build the AI technology that powers Microsoft Mesh, spanning the presence spectrum from avatars, through holoported representations of people, to digitization of objects and environments, and spanning the product lifecycle from research prototypes to shipping products to millions.
A diverse, multidisciplinary team, we approach our work not just as an exciting technological opportunity, but as a responsibility to develop new mediums of 3D communication in an inclusive and ethical way.
We combine insights in computer vision, machine learning and graphics to understand the motion, shape, and appearance of a user, and recreate their likeness remotely. We guide our technological development by building human-centric experiences to ensure we design solutions that people will love to use. We collaborate very closely with design, art, engineering and program management teams to build best solutions for our customers and make for dynamic and joyful collaborations with colleagues!
If you are passionate about ground-breaking VR/AR/XR technology and want to work in a science team dedicated to a culture of inclusion, growth mindset and collaboration, we need you!
