Are you a PhD student interested in machine learning, natural language
processing, computer vision, automated reasoning, or robotics? We are looking
for skilled scientists capable of putting theory into practice through
experimentation and invention, leveraging science techniques and implementing
systems to work on massive datasets in an effort to tackle never-before-solved
problems.
A successful candidate will be a self-starter comfortable with ambiguity, strong
attention to detail, and the ability to work in a fast-paced, ever-changing

teams to solve complex business problems.
