You will be on the FueliX Applied Research team, a small group dedicated to pushing the envelope of generative AI at the company. We are responsible for a variety of tasks, including:
As a data scientist on the team, a group of people dedicated to keeping our team and company ahead of the curve when it comes to looming problems on the horizon. The team conducts research on items of past difficulty (e.g., LLM hallucinations in particular settings) in an attempt to solve them more generally moving forward. In other words, we are a mini internal factory for best practices.
*This is a hybrid position located in Charlottesville,VA.
Applicants must be authorized to work permanently for any employer in the U.S. We are unable to sponsor employment visas at this time.
We offer a place to be yourself.
Our differences, both visible and invisible, benefit our teams, our communities, and the products we craft. That’s why WillowTree strives to build a team with diverse backgrounds, skills, and perspectives. You’ll work hard here; however, we’ll balance that with a culture that supports your growth and cares about your well-being. We’re committed to creating an environment of inclusion — a place where every Tree can thrive.
Our summer internship program is an opportunity for you to work on real client projects and make a real impact on our organization all while receiving one-on-one mentoring from our full-time team members. Not only that, but you’ll have snacks galore and plenty of chances to socialize with your fellow interns — including fun outings during work hours. We’ll have you with us full time (think 40 hours a week for 11 weeks) and yes, it is definitely paid. Not a bad gig, right?
WillowTree celebrates our differences and provides equal employment opportunities to all team members and applicants without regard to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, disability status, genetics, protected veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state or local laws. Diverse teams build better products. We acknowledge that the tech industry especially lacks opportunity for those who are of non-traditional backgrounds and in underrepresented groups. In order to create the best products for everyone, we know that it's important for our team to reflect the diversity of our users, and we are committed to being the change we want to see.
