Agent systems for industrial applications
Autonomous AI agents and multi-agent systems
Agent reasoning, planning, and decision making
Agent memory and long-horizon task execution
Agent self-improvement, continual learning, and adaptation
Tool use, function calling, and agent-environment interaction
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Agentic RAG
Knowledge integration and grounding for agents
LLM post-training, reinforcement learning, and test-time scaling
Multi-modal agents leveraging language, vision, and structured data
Human-agent collaboration and interactive AI systems
Agent evaluation, benchmarking, reliability, and safety
Key responsibilities include
Conduct novel research in Agentic AI, LLMs, and related fields.
Design, implement, and evaluate research prototypes demonstrating innovative AI agent capabilities.
Collaborate closely with Bosch researchers and domain experts to address challenging industrial problems.
Analyze experimental results and identify opportunities for scientific innovation.
Publish research outcomes in top-tier AI conferences and journals, such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP, NAACL, AAAI, and COLM.
Basic Qualifications
