Research Scientist – AI for Wearables | Research Scientist – AI for Wearables

Job Summary

Join Huawei's multidisciplinary research team in Zurich as a Research Scientist focusing on AI for Wearables. This role sits at the intersection of AI, signal processing, and human-computer interaction (HCI), aiming to shape the next generation of intelligent wearable technologies like smartwatches, earbuds, and XR glasses. Day-to-day responsibilities involve conducting cutting-edge research in micro hand gesture recognition using multimodal wearable signals (e.g., IMU, EMG, PPG) and developing innovative algorithms for continuous health monitoring, including stress detection and physiological state estimation. You will design novel interaction paradigms combining gesture sensing with contextual AI. Success requires a Ph.D. or M.Sc. in a relevant engineering or computer science field, a strong background in Machine Learning, Signal Processing, and experience with wearable sensing systems. The position offers the chance to collaborate with world-class scientists, publish high-impact results, and see your research transition into products reaching millions of global users.
