Lead Research Scientist, Foundation

Remote or New York Based

 

Rashi’s mission is to augment the way people do analysis – in a similar vein that search engines have augmented the way people search for information. 

We’re a Machine Learning insights engine, a fundamentally new solution to uncover and generate the insights that exist within the ocean of data, about whatever topic a user is researching. In this ever increasingly complex world, we’re trying to give people the tools to declutter the noise on the internet, and extract key insights — instantly, about whatever you are trying to understand. 

We’re trying to make iconic applications, and we’re at the ground floor. To make our vision a reality, we need passionate builders, rebels, and kind people. We’re not going for “AGI”. We’re not going for hyper-parameterized neural networks that brew unsettlement, concern, and fear. We’re trying to spark joy in our apps, that make users go ‘Eureka!’, in the sense of instantly gaining insights from our tools. Technology to augment and empower humans, to automate qualitative, manual analysis — in ways that make us smarter, and not ways where we outsource creativity to the machines. 

We’re looking for people that want to build impactful, practical, useful products to be used by millions, and build a new kind of intelligence revolution.

Position Summary 

We’re seeking a lead research scientist with a passion for Natural Language Processing and analytics. In this role you’ll work with the two founders, to define and optimize the NLP models and datasets for our algorithms to perform at scale. You’ll be researching and developing the best ways to extract topics, track topic convergence and divergence, vectorize such information and represent the insights that will emerge. 

 

Responsibilities: 

    • Develop, implement, and test ideas for significantly improving models in unsupervised language learning, deep learning, classification, and NER neural networks. 

    • Work in a team setting to understand the behavior and limitations of various libraries, mainstream approaches, and think creatively to devise new ways to make our models performant. 

    • Drive the downstream implementation of these improvements with our engineering team, with a driving curiosity for performance improvements

       

Qualifications: 

    •  Experience architecting sophisticated machine learning models 

    • Getting into the weeds of thinking deeply creatively to solve challenges and drive long-term system plans to completion 

    • Excellent quantitative intuition and creative thinking of developing intelligent heuristics for performance at scale 

    • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, and ability to communicate the architecture and implementation scheme to engineering and founding teams 

    • Ability to work in a fast paced startup, where we’re all trying our best and trying to enable each other’s best selves to perform with flow, to support each other, and help make our ambitious plan a reality.
