Job description

IBM Research is the innovation engine of IBM. Nearly every game-changing breakthrough in the information technology industry has its roots in an IBM Research lab. It has been a home for creative scientific minds since 1945, when Thomas J. Watson Sr. established the first corporate pure science research lab in the U.S. We are primed to define the future of technology for many years to come specifically around the world of Artificial Intelligence. We believe AI will transform the world in dramatic ways in the coming years – and our Research AI group is advancing the field through our portfolio of research and through collaborations with like-minded institutions including MIT (through our MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab) and individuals to push the boundaries of AI faster – for the benefit of industry and society.

Job Description

The mission of the IBM Research AI Interaction team is to leverage artificial intelligence to build intelligent interactive systems and visual experiences that help us study and understand Human-AI interaction including the automation of human workflows and processes through AI. We are exploring models and experiences that are explainable, trustable and learn from user interactions with the goal of informing the future design and construction of intelligent systems, tools, and platforms. These systems are designed to create new partnerships between people and machines to augment and scale human expertise in every industry, from healthcare to financial services to education. We are searching for a Research Staff Member to join our AI Interaction team in Cambridge, MA to lead research agendas and to communicate results to both internal executive audiences and the academic community. We are specifically interested in scientists with interest and expertise in creating intelligent systems leveraging: Machine learning, deep learning (especially generative models), natural language processing, understanding, and generation (NLP & NLU & NLG).
