In general Machine Learning projects have an intrinsic dose of uncertainty, so a good fit for our team is a person who is self-motivated, proactive, comfortable dealing with uncertainty and ambiguity in task definition. We're a highly collaborative team, both internally and across other teams, so being a teammate and an effective communicator are important for success in our team.

What's in it for you:

As part of our team, you will be developing machine learning (ML) models to our business needs. You will drive, design and develop machine learning solutions. A right combination of cross-field ML techniques, deep understanding of the business problem and high-quality training data is fundamental to our models producing high quality models for our client's needs. You will collaborate with product managers and legal domain experts to understand business problems and map them to ML problems. You will research groundbreaking ML/NLP techniques and apply them to our business problems. You will collaborate with legal domain experts to gain valuable insights and use their legal expertise to get high quality annotated training data. You will closely be working with product owners, legal data analysts (our domain experts), data engineers and front-end engineers to build and integrate ML solutions to our product.

Legal AI is an exciting and rapidly evolving field. If you are interested in working with a highly collaborative team to develop innovative solutions and make a big impact, please apply!

We'll trust you to:

- Drive, design & develop ML projects as the principal point-of-contact

- Collaborate with domain experts and product managers to understand business needs and map business problems to ML Problems

- Learn groundbreaking research in advanced ML & NLP topics and design ML/AI solutions for the problems

- Develop tailored ML/AI prediction models for legal domain

- Use metrics to make data-driven decisions

- Write and maintain production-quality code

- Collaborate with AI platform engineers on model maintenance and rollout

- Manage stakeholders' expectations throughout the project on model development and release

You'll need to have:

- 4+ years of experience with an object-oriented programming language such as Java or Python

- Subject matter expertise in one or more of the following: Artificial Intelligence (AI), Natural language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning (ML), Statistical Models, and Text Analytics on large data sets

- Experience in all phases of machine learning application lifecycles from problem mapping and scoping to data gathering and preparation to optimizing model performance

- Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, similar field of study or equivalent work experience

We'd love to see:

- Knowledge of advanced concepts such as weakly supervised learning, reinforcement learning and active learning

- Exposure to modern deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow

- Authored research publications, participation in ML competitions, working demos/repos

- Experience with distributed computational frameworks (YARN, Spark, Hadoop, Kubernetes, Docker)

- Enthusiasm to learn more about the legal domain (prior experience with legal is not required)
