Research Scientist
Salesforce Research
Weâre hiring at all levels!
Salesforce Research (previously MetaMind) is looking for outstanding research scientists.
Research scientists discover new research problems, develop novel models, design careful experiments and generally advance the state of the art in AI. At Salesforce, the research team is committed to collaboration with the wider research community; while research scientists have the opportunity to work directly on advancing technologies that customers use as part of the Einstein Platform, they may also focus exclusively on publications. We believe that making substantive progress on hard applications can drive and sharpen the research questions we study, and, in turn, scientific breakthroughs can spawn entirely new applications. With this in mind, the team maintains a portfolio of projects, some with an immediate path to production, others that may not find an application for several years. Research scientists have the freedom to set their own research agenda and move between pure and applied research.
Ideal candidates have a strong background in one or more of the following fields: deep learning, machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, or reinforcement learning. Additionally, applicants should have in-depth experience with one or more of text categorization, text summarization, information extraction, question answering, dialogue learning, machine translation, language and vision, image classification, image segmentation, or object detection.
Candidates should have a strong publication record in top-tier conferences or journals (e.g. NIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, CVPR, KDD, PAMI, JMLR, TACL, IJCV).
In addition to their own research agenda, senior research scientists will have the opportunity to take on additional responsibilities leading project teams, mentoring interns, and advising junior research scientists.

Post-doc position in Data Mining on French Mophology
LORIA Research Lab
Context: The goal of the Demonext project is to build a morphological Database for French where all the derivational properties of the words are extensively and systematically described. Demonext is built from several lexical resources and it intents to answer several objectives : a systemetic and fine-grained study of French morphology, the development of a tool and resources for NLP, a tool for teaching vocabulary or for treating langages pathologiesâŚ
 The Post-doc Position aims at proposing data mining tools to help linguists in their task of building and enriching the Demonext Lexical database. The Post-doc will develop tools based on pattern mining, association rule mining and formal concept analysis to extract dependencies between morphological features, identify wrong or missing values in the database, and to build meta-knowledge about morphological families. The post-doc will work at LORIA lab (Computer Science) in connection with the ATILF lab (Linguistics).
Skill : good skills in Computer Sciences (including programing), knowledge in Natural Language Processing and/or in morphology would be appreciated, some knowledge in French could help but are not mandatory. Candidates should have a PhD.
