Orizzonte Sistemi Navali proposes a master thesis project dedicated to the enhancement of business technical knowledge. Starting from the optimization of the transcripts of technical seminars recorded on Teams, the goal is to build a digital library of handouts and develop AI-based environments for the intelligent consultation of the material.
The final goal is the creation of a technical knowledge base and a “digital chair” usable by staff, supported by intelligent agents and AI tools capable of guiding the user in research and learning.

Activities and Responsibilities

The resource will deal with the following activities:

· Consolidation of the audio/video →transcription → post-processing pipeline and quality optimization (technical terminology, formatting, consistency)

· Design and construction of a digital library (organization, meta dating, indexing and versioning of handouts/transcripts)

· Definition of a knowledge base for technical content: structure, taxonomies, tagging and updating criteria

· Development of an AI consultation environment (e.g. Q&A on technical material, semantic research, guided summaries, study paths)

· Prototyping of intelligent agents to support fruition: navigation between sources, retrieving citations, suggestions for related content

· System validation: quality of answers, traceability to sources, robustness on ambiguous questions and user feedback

Requirements

  • Master's Degree Enrollment (AI/Data Science/Computer Engineering/Computer Science or similar)
  • Excellent knowledge of Python
  • Concrete interest in NLP, LLM, information retrieval and AI applications for knowledge management
  • Experience with Speech-to-Text (e.g. Whisper or equivalent) and text refinement techniques
  • Familiarity with tools for RAG/Q&A and knowledge base management (indexing, embeddings, vector search)
  • Knowledge of frameworks for AI agents/workflows
  • Experience with the design of information systems or content platforms (CMS, metadata, search)
