Parloa’s mission is to make every customer conversation feel effortless for both customers and the companies serving them. As agentic AI accelerates, Parloans are shaping the foundation of a new era in customer experience, one where customer support is no longer transactions, but meaningful exchanges. It is not just a vision; Parloa has powered over ONE BILLION interactions between global enterprise brands and their customers, with companies like IKEA and Booking.com already deploying Parloa at scale.
As a Principal Applied Scientist at Parloa, you will define and drive our applied AI strategy across AI agents and Generative AI.
This is a highly hands-on and high-impact role at the intersection of research and production. You will explore, validate, and scale approaches that directly shape our product, from model evaluation and routing to agent behavior, memory, and context engineering, while defining how these systems should be measured, benchmarked, and improved across the industry.
Beyond execution, you will act as a technical leader: identifying opportunities, setting direction, and building the foundations of applied science at Parloa.
We know that great candidates don’t always meet every single requirement. If you’re excited about this role and believe you could make an impact, we encourage you to apply, even if your experience doesn’t perfectly match every qualification.
Talent Acquisition → Technical Peer Interview → 360° Technical Interview Loop → Bar Raiser
We’re at the beginning of a new era in customer experience, one where AI doesn’t just respond, but understands, reasons, and takes action. We’re building agentic AI that enterprises trust with their most important customer moments: complex questions, high volumes, real stakes. When millions of people reach out to a brand, those interactions aren’t just support tickets; they’re defining experiences. We’re here to raise the standard: making every conversation seamless, intelligent, and genuinely helpful. If you care about shaping how businesses and customers connect at scale—and want your work to matter in real, everyday moments—this is where you do it.
At Parloa, ownership isn’t a buzzword; it means being accountable for outcomes, not just tasks. We operate in a category that’s evolving fast, where the bar is high, and the problems are complex. We hire people who think in solutions, communicate with clarity, and follow through. People who are comfortable making decisions, taking responsibility, and raising the standard for themselves and those around them.
We’ve grown beyond the earliest startup phase, but we’ve kept the intensity: fast execution, direct feedback, and a strong expectation to contribute meaningfully from day one.
Backed by leading global investors like General Catalyst, EQT Ventures, and Altimeter Capital, we’re scaling with a clear ambition: to become the global category leader in enterprise-grade conversational AI.
Parloa is committed to upholding the highest data protection standards for our clients' and employees' data. All our employees are instrumental in ensuring the utmost care, GDPR, and ISO compliance, including ISO 27001, in handling sensitive information.
