Your challenges:

  • Develop AI features end-to-end.

  • You have a solid understanding of machine learning algorithms and concepts, and have experience applying these concepts using PyTorch.

  • You have knowledge of Python libraries for web development like FastAPI, Pydantic, asyncio, requests, SQLAlchemy, etc.

  • You are familiar with databases and data processing libraries like PostgreSQL, Polars, DuckDB.

  • You have good working knowledge of Linux, Git, and the command-line.

  • You have high engineering standards. You like to leave your code cleaner than you found it.

  • Some practical things we expect from you:

    • You’re available for at least 32 hours per week

    • You're willing to come to our Utrecht office for two days/week

    • You have a valid work permit

What success looks like:
