Description
Huawei Canada has an immediate permanent opening for a Researcher.
About the team:
The Huawei Human-Machine Interaction Lab unites global researchers, engineers, and designers to redefine human technology relationships through user centered, hands on research. We focus on agentic AI and multimodal interaction (voice, touch, vision, gesture) across smartphones, wearables, and emerging devices—advancing agentic workflows, multi-agent orchestration, and intuitive human-AI interfaces. By tightly integrating sensing, algorithms, and systems, our prototype driven work ships directly to products, enabling seamless task delegation and human AI collaboration at scale.
About the job:
Contribute to research and exploration at the intersection of intelligent devices, AI experiences, and emerging interaction paradigms, with a focus on how human-computer interaction is evolving in the AI era and how established and emerging interaction approaches may work together.
Bring together technological capabilities, user needs, device form factors, and real-world scenarios to identify high-value interaction problems and opportunities.
Propose novel interaction concepts, mechanisms, and system-level approaches that address concrete challenges people face with intelligent systems, leveraging possibilities enabled by evolving technology.
Turn interaction concepts into concrete scenarios, use cases, and testable proposals, and collaborate with design, engineering, and technology teams to validate key assumptions and experiential value through prototypes and experiments.
Evaluate interaction solutions with appropriate user research and technical methods, covering efficiency, learnability, understandability, controllability, trust, and quality of collaboration, and continuously iterate solutions based on findings.
Stay current with emerging interaction paradigms, AI capabilities, and intelligent hardware trends, and translate valuable technologies, products, and research developments into concrete interaction explorations and product opportunities.
Collaborate with AI, software, hardware, sensing, design, and product teams to advance promising interaction concepts toward implementable system solutions, technical proposals, patents, or product directions.
The total target annual compensation for this position ranges from $106,000 - $156,000 depending on education, experience, and demonstrated expertise.
