Descript
Descript's Research team focuses on building specialized models for specific editing workflow problems, aiming to ship them as production features used by millions of creators. This role is centered on multimodal understanding, developing models that perceive edited media like a human video editor. The goal is to enhance Descript's AI editing agent, Underlord, by enabling it to directly perceive media, judge its own output, and reason about creative choices beyond just project structure. This is an open research problem with a unique dataset available.
