Job description

Third Dimension is building SuperSim, a new kind of simulator which can enable fast, cost-effective and photorealistic 3D simulations directly from source data using AI. We are working with customers across multiple industries, including autonomous vehicles, drones, robots in industrial and manufacturing environments, and more.

About the role: We’re looking to hire a Research Scientist that is interested in applying diffusion to solve cutting edge neural reconstructions, developing and applying computer vision and Gen AI models to enhance the quality and efficiency of our 3D reconstruction pipeline.

Preferred Qualifications and skills:

  • Strong mathematical and statistical background with deep insights into machine learning algorithms.
  • Expert in generative AI algorithms (Diffusion, GAN, VAE, Flow-based models, etc.).
  • Proficient in using open-source deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow/PyTorch.
  • Experience in model training and performance optimization.

Nice to Have:

  • 3+ years of practical work experience in AI, with hands-on development experience.
  • Experience of multimodal training such as 3D, video generation, or computer vision methods.
  • Contributions to popular open-source machine learning projects.
  • Publications in top-tier AI/ML/CV conferences.

Location:

  • London, UK / Graz, Austria/ Bay Area: This is a priority for us, as we're trying to build a presence around our already existing team in London, Graz or Bay area. Hybrid in office preferred
  • Remote: If these are are not an option, but you're amazing, we're open to having you work out your home location.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary & stock options – Everyone is an owner and shares in our success.

  • Hybrid-first culture – State-of-the-art London workspace with the flexibility to work remotely.
  • Workspace support – Latest hardware and home office equipment to set you up for success.
  • Learning & development – Budget and time for conferences, courses, and workshops to keep you at the frontier of ML and 3D AI.
  • Community & connection – Team offsites, events, and opportunities to connect with global colleagues.
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • The latest and best office equipment.

Why work at Third Dimension

  • Mission-driven: Work at the intersection of 3D generation, AI, and robotics — solving a fundamental bottleneck in embodied AI.
  • Culture: Described as a team of "bold thinkers" with a strong research-first DNA. The team is small (~16 employees) and highly technical, with a significant focus on research (31% of workforce).
  • Offices: Hybrid/Remote-friendly with physical hubs in San Francisco (HQ), London, Istanbul, and Graz, Austria. Offers both onsite and remote/hybrid options depending on role.
  • Team caliber: Colleagues come from top AI/robotics companies (Tesla, Wayve, Google, Luma AI, NVIDIA, Niantic, Unity) and top research institutions (University of Oxford). Key executives include a dedicated Chief Science Officer.
  • Open roles: Currently hiring Research Engineers and Researchers in 3D Reconstruction, Generative AI, SfM/SLAM, and Data Infrastructure/ML across multiple locations.
