Requirements

  • 5+ years building novel systems in machine learning, NLP, knowledge graphs, or related areas with evidence through publications, production implementations, or significant open-source contributions
  • Deep knowledge of knowledge graphs, graph neural networks, or temporal reasoning demonstrated through shipped systems and architectural exploration
  • Strong ML and NLP foundation, particularly in information extraction, entity resolution, or semantic representation
  • Proficiency in Python and modern ML frameworks (PyTorch preferred) with experience deploying models at scale
  • Track record of publishing research (conference papers, technical blog posts, or detailed technical documentation) and exploring novel architectures
  • Ability to move between theoretical investigation and practical implementation, shipping research into production

Responsibilities

  • Build LLM-powered information extraction pipelines that process unstructured communications and text data into structured entity-relationship representations
  • Develop memory consolidation algorithms that validate information through multiple observations, merge duplicate entities, and prune ephemeral data
  • Design temporal knowledge graph architectures that model organizational execution state as living, continuously updated systems rather than static records
  • Create graph attention mechanisms and reasoning systems for complex causal queries about blockers, dependencies, and outcome patterns
  • Research lossy semantic compression using information-theoretic principles to condense event streams into query-relevant long-term memory
  • Design entity resolution systems handling identity evolution where entities merge, split, and transform through time
  • Build meta-learning systems that identify organizational patterns and recognize when current situations match historical success or failure indicators
  • Develop privacy-preserving cross-organizational learning using federated learning and differential privacy techniques
  • Publish research findings and contribute to the broader research community on knowledge graphs and organizational intelligence
