Artificial Intelligence is playing an increasing role in sales organizations of all sizes. Enterprises communicate with customers over phone, on email, in chats. Salespeople rely on AI to analyze the growing data and provide actionable insights. For example: which deal could be at risk? what challenges my competition? Which email is more important to read first? What do I need to know before my meeting? And many other scenarios that we can’t yet make public!

Dynamics for Sales is a huge and healthy business already, and we are building a big team which centralizes its AI capabilities, and take them to the next level. We analyze a variety of data types: text, speech (voice), structured data; we build models which give actionable and timely insights; and work on advanced personalization and customization to empower sales people to excel.

Work and Responsibilities

As a scientist you will be a member in a team of scientists. You will:

• Work on machine learning models in one or more of the following areas: natural language processing, personalization and recommendations, models on structured data, time series analysis.
• Develop new methods and use existing methods to create useful product features.
• Engage with product managers and with customers, to thoroughly understand business problems and design AI solutions accordingly.
• Collaborate with researchers and practitioners around the company.
• Represent the team in external and internal forums.

We provide the scientist with top-notch opportunities to work, grow, learn, as well as engage in academic activities such as publications and conferences, patenting, giving talks, traveling to customers and collaborators.

Qualifications

• PhD/MSc in computer science, electrical engineering, information systems, mathematics or physics, with 1+ year of meaningful experience.
• Interest in product, customers, the business behind the product and how they influence the algorithm.
• Passion to solve problems in the field of large-scale data analytics.
• Ability to balance creativity and execution.
• Ability to code in high level languages (e.g., C#, Java), as well as scripting (e.g., SQL, Python).
• Experience in AI projects that reached maturity – a strong plus.
• Team player, communicative, highly motivated, innovation-oriented, can-do attitude.

We are seeking an excellent candidate for a postdoctoral fellowship position. The research is interested in assessing new biomarkers elaborated from physiological time series and demographic information for assessing the causal link between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the development of cardiovascular conditions (CVD). Better phenotyping of individuals that may develop CVD as a result of OSA will support clinical decision making for diagnosis and treatments routes. The work will involve working with large datasets (6000+ patients) of polysomnography data (overnight recordings) provided by different partnering medical institutions. The AIMLab. is computationally oriented and therefore candidates are required to have good computational abilities and programing skills. A typical candidate for this position is a PhD in machine learning with an interest in applying his/her skills to the medical field. The candidate will obtain a full stipend and travel to present his/her work at international conferences.
