Our team owns the open-domain question answering product (called WBQA – based on web info). Internship positions are for the summer of 2022, publication-driven, and have great flexibility in project selection and cross-team collaboration. Full-time positions will (of course) focus on improving WBQA in terms of question understanding and reformulation, and answer selection/generation. As WBQA is a very young product (<2 years), we’re one of the fastest-growing teams in Alexa AI (we grew by 34% in 2021), and have many interesting QA, IR, Fairness, and Indirect Supervision science problems to be solved.
