Hello,
My lab at Arizona State University is looking to hire a postdoctoral fellow interested in chatbot development (backend and frontend) and public communication of science.
The postdoctoral fellow will drive forward the Arizona Water Chatbot (https://azwaterbot.org) and related technological projects. The Arizona Water Chatbot (or AZ Waterbot) uses a custom-built generative AI tool to deliver curated information about water management, conservation, and conditions to the Arizona public. This fellow will be responsible for providing thought leadership, technical oversight, and community outreach for the project. The fellow will provide thought leadership that allows Waterbot to stay ahead of the curve on water issues, technical issues, and social issues relevant to Waterbot. The scholar will provide technical oversight by leading code development and product managing the Waterbot feature production/maintenance timeline; the scholar will also supervise a research assistant who contributes to Waterbot’s code. The scholar will conduct outreach by interacting in-person and online with local, municipal, state, and regional organizations and agencies to promote use of Waterbot in the Arizona public and integration of the Waterbot into organizations’ websites and services.
If you are interested in applying, please apply at Interfolio: https://apply.interfolio.com/166147. If you have questions about the position, I would be happy to answer them off-list.
Best,
Stephen Carradini
