Who We’re Looking For
We’re in search of a unique kind of developer. You’re already grounded in the fundamentals of software development and have taught yourself some machine learning or deep learning out of personal interest or curiosity. You’re looking for the chance to apply your skills, learn new ones, and develop and deploy your code into real production situations and feel pride in seeing what you’ve built be used to make people’s lives better. You’re not looking to be micromanaged; you’re looking for a role where you’re handed a problem and apply your skills and resourcefulness to solve it. You’re eager to work in an environment where your decisions and work have a significant impact. You’ll have access to a rich set of production data, a robust computing infrastructure, and you’ll be building on an established foundation. If you’ve been longing for a role that allows you to develop your own machine-learning skills on an existing stable platform that already has machine-learning integrated into it, you’ll find this position to be a perfect fit.
