Feasibility Study AI Nutrition Buddy

This is a remote position.

We're looking for project support to work on the technical feasibility and development of an AI-based nutrition coach webapp for teenagers. Rather than counting calories, the app builds on personal eating motives: think taste, budget, sustainability, or social belonging and many more. It gives everyday, non-judgmental recommendations before a meal decision is made, not after. Meal recognition via photo and voice is a core part of the concept, developed and validated together with a Swiss university partner.

Your Tasks

• Contribute to testing the technical feasibility of AI-based meal recognition (image & voice)
  
• Support the development and implementation of the webapp (backend, database structure, interfaces)
  
• Help connect and fine-tune the LLM through prompt engineering
  
• Research and evaluate suitable state-of-the-art models for image and speech recognition
  
• Support the development of the nutrition logic and the personalized recommendation system
  
• Contribute to testing scientific accuracy and iterating based on results
  
• Document code, approach, and project progress
