Harmony is Monday.com's new AI venture focused on next-generation conversational AI and agentic systems. You'll join a small, highly autonomous startup-like team working on AI that plans, reasons, and acts—not just reacts. In this role, you'll conduct cutting-edge research on novel algorithms and deep learning architectures to advance in-house NLP and conversational models. Key responsibilities include: • Research and design new deep learning architectures for NLP and conversational AI systems. • Develop methods to translate customer goals into structured representations with controlled states and real-time observations. • Design the reasoning layer that orchestrates in-house AI models alongside various LLMs, enabling agents to adapt their policy throughout conversations while maintaining alignment with customer objectives. • Build analytical tools to trace AI decision processes across large conversation corpora, providing visibility into reasoning and behavior. • Collaborate closely with engineers and product teams to translate research into production-scale systems. • Proactively lead new technical initiatives and ideas. You'll have access to large-scale real-world data, substantial compute resources, and the freedom to move fast while shaping the AI vision. The team values ownership, agility, and startup-like pace within a well-resourced environment. REQUIREMENTS: • MSc or PhD in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or closely related field. • Proficiency in Python. • Strong theoretical background in machine learning and deep learning principles. • Solid understanding of NLP concepts and linguistic principles (co-reference, natural language inference, grammatical relations, etc.). • Experience using statistics and information theory to evaluate AI models and conduct exploratory data analysis. • 4+ years of experience conducting NLP research with deep learning models and frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar). • Experience shipping AI systems from research to production. • Experience with conversational AI agents is a plus. • Publications at top-tier conferences (ACL, EMNLP, NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR) are a plus.
