At WSC Sports, you have the opportunity to directly influence the products and tools used by our clients, including sports giants such as the NBA, Bundesliga, LaLiga, ESPN - and that’s just the beginning of what WSC Sports has to offer! Join us and be a part of the best team in tech as we Fuel the Fandom worldwide.

The Team & Role WSC Sports is looking for a talented AI Algorithm Developer to join us in the research and development of our next-generation automatic sports video content engine. Our team operates at the intersection of Computer Vision, NLP, and Audio analysis. We don't just use models; we build multimodal pipelines that understand sports context like a human editor would.

If you are an expert in one of these domains (NLP, CV, or Speech) and are eager to master the others to build state-of-the-art Multimodal AI - we are looking for you!

What you’ll do:

• Research and develop end-to-end real-time solutions for sports content automation using state-of-the-art Deep Learning (LLMs, VLMs, Audio models, and Generative AI).
• Collaborate with Computer Vision and Audio experts to fuse different data signals into unified models.
• Combine deep language models, Generative AI, and classical ML techniques to create high-quality solutions for demanding product-oriented tasks.
• Manage the full R&D cycle: from problem definition and reading papers to implementation, prompt engineering, and productization with high autonomy.
• Engage in collaboration with product and success teams to convert business goals into measurable algorithmic objectives.
• Write robust, production-grade Python code that scales.

Requirements

What you’ll need:

• Strong Algo Foundation: 3+ years of practical experience in research and development of Deep Learning algorithms.
• Domain Expertise: Deep knowledge in at least one of the following fields: NLP, Computer Vision, or Speech/Audio Processing.
• Engineering Excellence: Strong proficiency in Python and DL frameworks (PyTorch/TensorFlow) with a track record of delivering code to production (not just Jupyter notebooks).
• Modern AI Stack: Experience or strong familiarity with Transformers, Foundation Models (GPT, Llama, CLIP, Whisper, etc.), and Prompt Engineering techniques.
• The "Athlete" Mindset: You are a fast learner who is not afraid to jump from a Text problem to a Vision problem.

Preferred Qualifications:

• M.Sc or PHD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related fields.
• Experience building Multimodal systems (e.g., VQA, Video Understanding, Audio-Visual fusion).
• Experience with deployment, optimization, and serving of Large Language Models.
