Thales’ Applied AI Research Team in Canada is looking for a talented researcher with a great appetite to solve complex research questions and apply them to critical AI projects.
This position is part of the Generative and Agentic AI team that is responsible for designing and proving the value of novel Agentic AI applications with a focus on trustable AI.
A Research and Technology (R&T) AI Scientist in Generative and Agentic AI is responsible for discovering, enabling and integrating complex innovative AI concepts into Thales solutions.
This role validates their feasibility through the implementation of Proofs of Concept (Po Cs) and guides their maturity growth through prototypes and demonstrators that will in turn illustrate and enable their full business potential.
To be successful in this role, curiosity for what is new, willingness to challenge the status quo, open-mindedness and out-of-the-box thinking are crucial.
The individual should quickly learn and assess new techniques and technologies in order to decide whether to adopt, adapt or discard them.
They also need to be able to come up with new ideas, present them, challenge them and improve them continuously.
The individual must possess deep, hands-on technical skills in the development and training of AI and ML, but more importantly, in the development of solutions using Generative AI, whether deployed as Agentic AI or LLM workflows.
The candidate must demonstrate a strong understanding of the scientific method and his/her ability to deliver quality content at all steps of the research process, from the capability to summarize the theoretical background of a novel domain to the dissemination of research outputs through peer-reviewed publications, patents or other means.
The AI scientist is part of a multi-disciplinary team.
Strong team spirit and teamwork capabilities are mandatory.
The ideal candidate therefore is able to demonstrate transverse skills that would facilitate the transfer of the work carried out to all stakeholders involved.
He/she will contribute as a technical subject matter expert to Research and Technology projects across Thales and its business units.
Therefore, good communication skills are required.
