The Principal Applied Scientist joins the Search, Discovery, and Content AI team to advance knowledge-grounded AI. This role involves architecting next-generation graph-driven search, hybrid retrieval, and grounded generative systems that integrate knowledge graphs, multimodal embeddings, and ranking systems. You will build large-scale systems connecting queries, entities, and multimodal signals into coherent semantic architectures while defining evaluation frameworks for intent accuracy and entity grounding fidelity. Key responsibilities include establishing modeling standards, mentoring senior scientists, and driving technical direction for graph-grounded RAG and agentic systems. The position requires deep expertise in NLP, information retrieval, and LLM systems, specifically utilizing graph embeddings, GNNs, and hybrid graph-LLM architectures. You will solve complex problems regarding how structured knowledge and foundation models work together to understand intent and creative content.
