About The Position

The AI Research Scientist will work within webAI’s Intelligence Lab as the “brain” of development. Their primary objective is to push the boundaries of what is possible. While they collaborate with engineers, their success is measured by the novelty and efficacy of their models, often operating in a high-uncertainty environment. This individual will work closely with research leadership and applied AI teams to advance scientific discovery while ensuring that innovations translate into real-world impact. This is a hands-on research role for someone who loves experimentation, solving complex problems, and building AI that is powerful, efficient, and privacy-preserving.

Requirements

  • Experience: 5+ years of post-doc or industrial research experience or equivalent university time with a deep experience that matches WIL objectives to include with a track record of publications or significant model releases.
  • Technical Depth: Mastery of linear algebra, calculus, and probability; deep proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks.
  • Education: PhD in Machine Learning, Mathematics, Physics, or a highly quantitative field.

Responsibilities

  • Algorithm Development: Design and train novel architectures (e.g., Transformers, State-Space Models, Diffusion) to solve complex business problems.
  • Experimental Design: Lead the hypothesis-testing phase, defining evaluation benchmarks and loss functions that align with human intent.
  • Literature Leadership: Stay at the bleeding edge of ArXiv and academic conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR) to implement or improve upon the latest research.
  • Prototyping: Build "proof-of-concept" models that demonstrate a significant leap in accuracy, speed, or reasoning capability.
  • Knowledge Transfer: Document findings and mentor engineers on the mathematical nuances of the models.
