Samsung&#8217;s Computer Science Lab<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; (CSL), located in San Jose, California is currently recruiting<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; world-class HCI researchers who thrive in a fast-pace, results-<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; driven environment.<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; The goal of CSL&#8217;s HCI research group is to radically rethink the<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; user experience of human-computer interaction. We strive to create<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; interfaces that are more immersive, more intelligent, and more<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; interactive than what exists, and build systems that are natural<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; to interact with. The successful candidate will be responsible for<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; researching and developing working prototypes in this area.<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; We are looking for candidates who have broad expertise in non-<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; traditional HCI, and deep expertise in at least three of the<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; following domains:<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Augmented reality and mixed reality<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Virtual worlds and virtual reality<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Spatial user interfaces and interaction with 3D content<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Teleimmersion and telepresence<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Mobile and wearable computing<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Physical computing and embedded computing<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; Required qualifications:<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Media Arts &amp; Sciences,<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; Mechanical Engineering, or similar domains (candidates with more<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; experience are encouraged to apply)<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; or M.S. degree with 3+ years of experience in corporate or<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; academic R&amp;D environments<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Innovative research track record, including refereed journal and<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; first-tier conference publications<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Track record of delivering tangible results from research<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; projects (&#8220;demo or die&#8221;)<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Ability to work in a multi-cultural and fast paced environment<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Excellent presentation and communication skills, self-motivated<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; The ability to work independently, as well as part of a team<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; Required engineering skills in the following areas:<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Interactive 3D graphics<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Image processing for object recognition and motion detection<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Actuators and sensors (inertial, optical, etc.) in embedded systems<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Excellent coder on diverse platforms in common compiled and<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; scripted languages (C, C++, PERL, Ruby, Python)<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; Desired skills:<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Computer vision (tracking, etc.)<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Machine learning<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Rapid prototyping (hardware, software, mechanical)<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; Circuit board design<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; &#8211; User study design<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; _______________________________________________<br \/>\n&gt;&gt; Stefan J.W.
