Job Description

As a member of one of our Technology teams, you will contribute to building solutions that use natural language processing, cognitive computing, and artificial intelligence applications or the frameworks and infrastructure that support them.

Interactions’ R&D organization is seeking a Software Engineer with strong Python/Linux skills, to help us build out our new Spoken Conversation Understanding Platform - an advanced AI system that listens to live, human-to-human customer care conversations and reacts to them in real time, at a scale of thousands of concurrent conversations. This is an opportunity to contribute to a development effort with “greenfield” explorations in technology and functionality, as very few positions are offering.
You will play a key role in bringing the platform to new use cases and new customers, collaborating with the Interactions Integration team to identify, prototype, simplify and execute on platform integration opportunities.
We are a relatively small but diverse team of technologists, with expertise in software engineering, machine learning, QA automation, spoken language understanding, data engineering, networking protocols, and web development. We emphasize collaboration as the path to success, and encourage each member to understand and, as appropriate, contribute to all aspects of the product.
