This means combining LLMs with structured knowledge to ground reasoning; designing evaluation frameworks that surface failure modes before they reach production; and building information extraction systems whose outputs can be audited.\nKey responsibilities of the role will include:\nOwn the research-to-production arc on language understanding and knowledge-grounded AI: from literature review and experimentation to deployment and monitoring\nDesign AI systems whose outputs can be explained, audited, and trusted in regulated contexts - and know when simpler approaches serve that goal better than complex ones\nBuild production-quality services around your models: APIs, inference pipelines, evaluation harnesses\nDesign evaluation frameworks that go beyond benchmark metrics - testing for failure modes, edge cases, and behavior under distribution shift\nWork on information extraction, semantic understanding, and structured knowledge problems grounded in real industrial data\nStay current with the research frontier in language models, interpretability, and trustworthy AI\nContribute to technical standards and code quality across the team\nWork on a genuinely hard and open research problem with direct industrial application\nThe role is based in Trieste and includes a hybrid work model, offering flexibility through remote working days.\nMaster's degree or PhD in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Engineering or a related STEM field\nAt least 3-5 years of experience working with NLP or language understanding systems in production environments, such as text classification, information extraction, semantic search, RAG, or generative systems\nAt least 3-5 years of experience in applied NLP or computer vision, working with real-world data and operational constraints rather than benchmark-only environments\nExperience working across one or more of the following sectors: Healthcare, Financial Services, Mobility/Transport, Agriculture\nTechnical Skills\nFluent across the stack: LLM-based systems, classical ML, APIs, microservices, inference optimization\nStrong software engineering fundamentals: your code is modular, testable, and maintainable by someone other than you\nComfort with the full arc from prototype to production: you know what a model registry is, you have thought about inference latency, you have monitored a deployed model\nWorking knowledge of Python ML ecosystem: PyTorch or JAX, HuggingFace, experiment tracking (MLflow, W&B), serving frameworks\nSoft Skills & Personal Attributes\nEntrepreneurial mindset: takes ownership, operates with autonomy and drives things forward without waiting for direction\nGenuine interest in trustworthy and explainable AI - not as a theoretical topic but as a design constraint that shapes how you build\nExcellent communication and stakeholder management skills; able to interact effectively with both technical teams and C-suite executives or institutional clients\nLanguages\nEnglish: Full professional proficiency required (primary working language for international projects and publications)\nItalian: Knowledge of Italian is considered an advantage\nWhat we offer\nWe offer employment at the VI Professional level with the relevant salary, in accordance with the CCNL ANIA for non-executive employees and the Generali Group Company Agreement.\nGross annual salary starting from 50K€. The final offer will be aligned with the candidate’s professional experience, technical and soft skills relevant to the role, and may include an individual variable component.\nWe also offer:\nSmart working and flexible hours\nCorporate welfare system\nMeal vouchers\nSupplementary health insurance and discounted insurance policies\nWellbeing initiatives\nTraining and development\nStructured continuous learning paths (technical and managerial)\nCareer development programs\nAccess to learning platforms and internal mobility opportunities\nAssicurazioni Generali S.p.A","description_format":"text","description_chars":4241,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"Italian","level":"All levels","optional":false},{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Continuous learning","Health insurance","Hybrid work"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Italy","iso":"IT","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Cybersecurity","Spa & Massage"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-09T05:51:20Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":49,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.819,"p_room":0.6,"age_days":116,"expected_fill_days":117,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:late","crowd:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":55997,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/generali-research-engineer-trustworthy-ai","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/generali-research-engineer-trustworthy-ai.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T12:10:23Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":18749,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1773319},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1773319"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fgenerali-research-engineer-trustworthy-ai"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fgenerali-research-engineer-trustworthy-ai"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fgenerali-research-engineer-trustworthy-ai"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/generali-research-engineer-trustworthy-ai\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fgenerali-research-engineer-trustworthy-ai"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2152267}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"generali.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2152267},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
