Company Overview
Docusign brings agreements to life. Over 1.5 million customers and more than a billion people in over 180 countries use Docusign solutions to accelerate the process of doing business and simplify people's lives. With intelligent agreement management, Docusign unleashes business–critical data that is trapped inside of documents. Until now, these were disconnected from business systems of record, costing businesses time, money, and opportunity. Using Docusign's Intelligent Agreement Management platform, companies can create, commit, and manage agreements with solutions created by the company in e–signature and contract lifecycle management (CLM).What you'll do
As a Senior Manager for the Docusign AI Applied Science team, you are responsible for leading a core team of applied scientists and setting the standards of technical excellence in Applied Science and Machine Learning. You will be leading the efforts on building the core AI/ML capabilities and models powering our new Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform.You will manage and mentor the Applied Scientists on the team and leverage state of the art machine learning techniques for natural language processing to improve how agreements are drafted, summarized, signed, managed, and queried. The ideal candidate should have experience with all aspects of designing, building, tuning, and evaluating machine learning solutions (including LLMs). Collaborating closely with product and platform partners, you will play a leading role in delivering AI solutions for agreement understanding, information extraction, semantic search, question answering, among others.You will leverage your expertise in AI and machine learning to advance our AI strategy and influence the executive leadership. You will bring your technical flair and team building chops together and grow a world class ML team to deliver industry–leading AI experiences to customers across DocuSign Agreement Platform.This position is a people manager role reporting to Director, Machine Learning.ResponsibilityLead and grow a world class applied science team and act as a magnet for hiring and developing great talentBe a role model and advance our team cultureLean in leadership to deliver success against our goalsLead your Applied Science team in model development, research, testing and evaluation of existing and emerging NLP/ ML/ DL methods and models (incl. open source and licensed LLMs) that could be effectively applied to the contract domain and unlock new and innovative use cases for our customersResponsible for multiple initiatives, lead cross–team collaboration, plan and guide the effort of applied scientists and ML engineers on the initiatives, and shape the technical roadmapWork closely with Product Management to translate user scenarios and product requirements into robust, customer–agnostic machine learning solutions, participate in design and planning discussions to make sure we can deliver high quality AI/ML features on timeBe knowledgeable in and be able to build the strategy for employing the state of the art technologies to NLP tasks such as long document text understanding, entity extractions, text encoders, LLM finetuning, semantic search, question answering, query intent detection, document layout understanding, and so onProvide coaching and leadership in applied science for best practices, modeling and evaluation techniques, responsible AI, model interpretability and datasets enhancementsDeliver AI products that delight customers while managing the health of the code base through continuous refactoring and management of technical debtWhat you bring
