Job Description

The Conversational Assistant program (CAT) at ServiceNow Research is exploring how Conversational AI Assistants will improve the productivity of knowledge workers in all industries. For ServiceNow, this means delighted end-users, more productive instance admins, and more empowered citizen developers. The Conversational Assistant program trailblazes the conversion of LLMs into competent and reliable assistants. We research and prototype trustworthy assistants that help you achieve your goals with the most appropriate tools. We are actively seeking collaborators and interns. The topics include but are not limited to:

  • Task-oriented dialog and semantic parsing

  • Large context transformers, transformers with memory
  • Controllable AI, chain-of-thought methods, integration with symbolic AI
  • Trust-worthy natural language generation; combatting hallucinations

Research scientists contribute to the flagship projects of the team, set up their own research agenda within the topics of the research team, supervise interns, and collaborate with their colleagues and the global AI community. We expect all research scientists to also be capable of writing, maintaining, troubleshooting, and optimizing the research software that they work with.

Research scientists are also responsible to be on top of the latest trends and discoveries and for sharing their knowledge with their colleagues through internal communications and collaborative projects.

Research scientists are also responsible to act as scientific advisors for other teams in need of their expertise and contribute to the products of the company.
