Stealth UK RecruitTech-AI Startup | Data scientist / AI Developer | REMOTE in EU/UK preferred | Part Time (initially)

Skilled AI Engineer sought with knowledge of relevant (Python, PyTorch, LLMs) technologies and a few years (between 1 to 5 years) of relevant experience. Combining technical expertise with an entrepreneurial mindset, the candidate will bring a unique blend of proficiency in AI frameworks, an ability to work independently, and a keen business sense to any project.

This is an opportunity to be part of, work with and also learn from a seasoned team on cutting-edge innovation within a funded Artificial Intelligence start-up based in London (currently in stealth mode) that has recently been awarded grant support from the UK Government through Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), and a role that has strong potential for growth and development in a growing business. The team comprises four senior individuals each with 15-20 year experiences in AI/technology, strategy/finance and product management.

This contract role will commence as soon as possible and have a minimum duration until 30 November 2023 and will be part-time or full-time (to be mutually agreed) and may also be suitable for those considering a short assignment or internship placement. There will be potential opportunity to extend the contract beyond this or consider employment depending on business need and candidate performance. The role is primarily a remote working role, and applications from candidates within the UK or Netherlands, and rest of Europe are preferred although other outstanding candidates from elsewhere in the world may also be considered.
