Machine Learning Engineer (R&D) – AI Incubator – upto £150k +equity – Remote (UK/EU)


Do you have a solid AI Research background?


Do you have experience creating PoCs from SOTA research?


Are you uptodate with the latest in AI?


The challenge

We’re a startup incubator, founded by a successful tech entrepreneur just over 2 years ago. Our expertise lies in Web3 technologies and AI, we’ve launched successful Blockchain startups and our maiden AI startup.


As we grow our AI Startup portfolio, we’re searching for a couple of ML Engineers to join our R&D team, working closely with our CTO and VP of Engineering to explore use cases and SOTA research in AI in order to identify potential AI products, which you will take from idea to PoC and spin into zero to one startups.


You will be working on multiple ideas simultaneously whilst remaining an advisor to the startups you’ve spun out, making you influential in their success and will grow and lead an AI R&D function within the business.


About you

You’ll be an expert in AI, having worked for at least 5 years in the sector and have a genuine passion for AI technologies, have experienced several use cases (fails and successes), upto date with latest research in AI and an entrepreneurial mindset. You’ll cherish ambiguity and fog and be able to rapidly shift SOTA research into prototypes.


What we are looking for is someone with:

  • A background in Research (PhD desirable)
  • At least 3 years’ commercial experience of hands on developing PoCs, training and deploying AI models
  • Ability to wade through ideas and rapidly build prototypes
  • Experience fine tuning some of the more recent LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Claude, LLaMA, Mistral etc)
  • Uptodate with current research in AI


Ideally you’ll have worked in an early stage startup or started your own, previous zero to one experience would be hugely beneficial.


Benefits

The role will be fully remote, being based in or around London would be an advantage as you can meet up with the VP of Engineering and CTO on occasions and bounce ideas off each other.

There’s a salary of up to £150k with equity in all the startups you spin out.


Please note: you must be eligible to work in the UK or EU to be considered for this position.
