Massachusetts Veterans Jobs

Description

The Automated Reasoning Group is looking for a Senior Applied Scientist with expertise in automated test generation (e.g., property-based testing, fuzzing, symbolic execution) and deductive verification (e.g., Lean, Dafny) to deliver novel code reasoning capabilities at scale. You will be part of a larger organization that develops a spectrum of formal software analysis tools that target software at levels of abstraction from assembler to high-level programming languages. You will work in a team of world class automated reasoning experts who, in collaboration with experts in GenAI, aim to deliver code reasoning technology that is powerful yet accessible to all developers.

Key job responsibilities

• Designing and building general-purpose, automated test generation tools, drawing on techniques from areas including automated reasoning, fuzzing, and GenAI

• Developing hybrid workflows for code reasoning that combine static and runtime verification, and leverage GenAI

• Working with product designers and software engineers to integrate these tools into compelling customer experiences

About the team

You will be working within the Automated Reasoning Group, a team spanning recently hired PhDs to industry veterans with expertise in formal verification, theorem proving, model checking, static and dynamic analysis, programming languages, and automated test generation. This expertise is being leveraged to enhance, and be enhanced by, exciting new AI technologies. Our vision is to develop powerful tools and products that help developers and users increase their confidence in system correctness and security while also enhancing their productivity.
