The Institute of Cognitive Science and the Human Bio-Behavioral Signals (HUBBS) Laboratory at the University of Colorado Boulder is seeking a highly motivated Researcher to join an interdisciplinary project at the intersection of artificial intelligence, speech analytics, behavioral health, and human performance. The successful candidate will contribute to the development, adaptation, and evaluation of speech-based AI technologies for monitoring team functioning and supporting behavioral health assessments.
The researcher will be responsible for processing and analyzing speech data, developing machine learning models that quantify team functioning from speech and language, designing interpretable AI indicators for operational decision support, and conducting longitudinal analyses of team dynamics in long-duration missions. The position will involve close collaboration with behavioral scientists and stakeholders to ensure that AI-generated insights are relevant and human-centered.
Ideal candidates will have expertise in one or more of the following areas: machine learning, natural language processing, speech and audio processing, computational behavioral science, and human-centered AI. Experience with Python, machine learning frameworks, speech analytics, and statistical data analysis is highly desirable. Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work effectively in interdisciplinary teams are essential.
