About the role
We are looking for a LEAN Programming Engineer to take a hands-on implementation approach in designing, implementing, and optimizing our theorem-proving AI system. You will contribute to research and development of critical components of our AI architecture: (a) formalizing mathematical, scientific and engineering problems into a domain knowledge model and representation, and (b) independent validation of outputs via formal verification systems. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in functional programming languages, which we believe is the foundation for developing a logical reasoning AI system. We are especially interested in candidates who have worked in developing and using automated theorem provers, formal verification systems or applications, and symbolic computation/algebra systems extensively. A strong academic or research foundation in logic systems (higher/first-order logic, etc.) will be invaluable.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
▪Implement and optimize algorithms for automated theorem proving, including but not limited to, proof search, term rewriting, and logical inference.
▪Incorporate advanced mathematical concepts and formal methods into the design and development process.
▪Utilize knowledge of various logic systems and frameworks such as HOL, FOL, DL, Modal Logic, and Temporal Logic in algorithm development.
▪Leverage Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) such as Mathematica, Maple, SageMath, Maxima, or SymPy for symbolic computation and algebraic manipulation.
▪Collaborate with AI researchers and mathematicians, and other engineers to write good quality code and ensure seamless integration and interoperability of different system modules.
MUST-HAVE QUALIFICATIONS
▪Masters / Ph.D. in Computer Science or Mathematics (or Advanced Master’s degree)
▪2+ years experience in at least one of Lean, Coq, Agda, or Isabelle.
DESIRABLE SKILLS
▪Strong understanding of functional programming principles and paradigms.
▪Familiarity with automated theorem proving techniques and tools.
▪Knowledge of formal methods and formal verification.
▪Understanding of category theory, type theory, or other advanced mathematical concepts.
▪Familiarity with logic theories such as Higher-Order Logic (HOL), First-Order Logic (FOL), Description Logic (DL), Modal Logic, and Temporal Logic.
▪Understanding of algebraic structures and symbolic computation.
▪Experience with AI and machine learning frameworks is highly desirable.
▪Contributions to open-source projects in the functional programming, AI, or formal verification communities.
