Labs works across a broad variety of AI/ML initiatives—including core computer vision, multimodal representation learning, heterogeneous graph neural networks, generative modeling, and recommender systems. This is the group that develops the foundation ML models that fully leverage the tens of billions of Pins and the associated knowledge graph to improve the core product.</p> <p>We are currently hiring for the Visual Modeling team in Labs, which develops Pinterest's in-house visual encoder. In this role, you'll work with Pinterest's rich visual-text dataset to train large-scale models from scratch that are continuously shipped to production to power visualization features. You'll build multimodal representations that power applications such as recommender systems, Semantic IDs, and a range of downstream ML models. The visual encoder also produces visual tokens that power our in-house VLM and composed image retrieval models. The core visual pod is a small group (~10 engineers) inside Labs, which allows for deep collaboration. For example, engineers working on multimodal representation also contribute to our internal text-to-image generation Canvas project—collaborating on autoencoder design or on reward function development for RL training.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>What you’ll do:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Prototype state-of-the-art visual encoders that power Pinterest's recommender systems and internal visual language models.</li> <li>Experiment with billion-scale datasets and gain hands-on experience with large-scale GPU computing.</li> <li>Build flexible visual reasoning tools such as composed image retrieval, promptable detection/segmentation, and instruction-tuned embedding and generative models.</li> <li>Read research papers, participate in group discussions, and help brainstorm the company's overall visual generative strategy.</li> <li>Help collect relevant visual instruction training data that can be shared across multimodal representation, composed image retrieval, text-to-image generation and visual language modeling.</li> <li>Publish and share your work through conferences, paper submissions, and blog posts.</li> <li>Mentor junior researchers and research interns within the Pinterest Labs organization.</li> <li> </li> </ul> <p><strong>What we’re looking for:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Research engineers and scientists with experience building and training computer vision models.</li> <li>Experience with multimodal representations and visual language modeling is strongly preferred.</li> <li>A track record of research contributions (e.g., publications, open-source work) and/or shipping ML models to production.</li> <li>Hands-on experience with large-scale model training and modern deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch).</li> <li>Strong collaboration skills and a demonstrated ability to work effectively in a small, fast-moving team.</li> <li>M.S. or PhD in Machine Learning or related academic areas, or equivalent work experience.</li> <li>Publications at top ML conferences</li> <li>Experience using Cursor, Copilot, Codex, or similar AI coding assistants for development, debugging, testing, and refactoring</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Relocation Statement:</strong></p> <ul> <li>This position is not eligible for relocation assistance.
