Investigador/a en IA Generativa para Ingeniería Industrial

Vicomtech (www.vicomtech.org) is a private Applied Research Centre specialized in Artificial Intelligence, Visual Computing, and Interaction, located in Donostia-San Sebastián and Bilbao. We have a strong national presence in applying cutting-edge AI technologies across multiple sectors. We are members of the Basque Research and Technology Alliance (BRTA) and GraphicsVision.ai, an international network specialized in Computer Graphics (https://graphicsvision.ai/).

We are looking for a motivated individual to join our new Generative AI for Industrial Engineering line, aiming to develop innovative solutions with a real impact on the business landscape. You will focus on applying AI to CAD/CAM/CAE environments, contributing to critical functions such as constrained design generation and optimization, and building multimodal systems that integrate text, geometry, and simulation.

Candidates must have

  • Master's degree in computer engineering or a related field.
  • PhD or a strong interest in pursuing one in this field.
  • Solid experience in Python and applied Machine Learning (PyTorch or similar).
  • Hands-on experience with Generative AI (LLMs, Transformers, generative models) and their integration into applications.
  • Experience building systems with LLMs (RAG, Agents).
  • Ability to manage complex and technical data (ingestion pipelines, processing, and evaluation of multimodal data).
  • Practical knowledge of CAD/Engineering tools (CATIA, NX, SolidWorks...) and 3D geometry.
  • High level of English and Spanish.

We value candidates

  • Experience in advanced multimodal AI (LMMs / VLMs).
  • Experience with computational geometry and CAD data (B-Rep, parsing, etc.).
  • Knowledge of generative design, constrained optimization, and simulation (CAE/FEM).
  • Experience in synthetic data generation and evaluation.
  • Knowledge of PLM systems and industrial workflows.
  • Scientific publications, technical contributions, or relevant projects in the field.
  • Knowledge of Basque.

We offer

  • Integration into a dynamic, innovative, and leading international center in the field of AI and Visual Computing & Interaction.
  • Attractive national and international R&D projects with cutting-edge technology.
  • Creative freedom in research, aligned with the Center's management procedures.
  • Personal development through training and education opportunities.
  • Career growth and professional progression possibilities.
  • Work-life balance policies.
  • Equal employment opportunities.
