Our client is one of the most exciting start-up prospects in Paris at the moment and is looking to expand their team with a senior software engineer. They are leading the way with cutting-edge artificial intelligence solutions in areas of deep learning and reinforcement learning across research and development. Partnering with the likes of Nvidia and Google, they are set to be a growing powerhouse moving forwards and this is an excellent opportunity to get in at an earlier stage. Although they are a start-up, they have multiple offices around the world and a growing established team in Paris that you could be a significant part of.

As a Research Engineer, you will join a team primarily focused on applied research with a particular emphasis on Reinforcement Learning and decision-making. Their efforts are towards developing valuable research works and breakthroughs that were previously out of reach. The core tasks of a Research Engineer include: developing prototype applications, providing programming support to research projects, implementing software libraries, and contributing to publication efforts.

Responsibilities

1. Implement and develop novel algorithms and research ideas in fields such as machine learning, deep learning, and reinforcement learning.
2. Contribute to our client’s publication efforts.
3. Bridge the gap between the research and products by integrating new fundamental research into applied projects.
4. Encourage and support good engineering practices as research is translated into reusable and maintainable code.
5. Design and implement algorithms to leverage modern hardware and distributed computing systems (CPUs, GPUs, TPUs, Cloud, etc.).
6. Report and present experimental results and research findings clearly and efficiently, both internally and externally, verbally and in writing.
7. Collaborate with the business development team in their pre-sales activities, including presenting the company to prospective clients and representing at conferences/events.

Minimum Qualifications

1. Postgraduate degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related scientific field.
2. Experience in developing and debugging in Python or similar languages.
3. Experience using deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and/or Jax.
4. Research and software engineer experience demonstrated via previous experience, contributions to open source, or coding competitions.

Preferred Qualifications

1. Work permit for the UK.
2. Proven ability to contribute to research communities and/or efforts, including publishing scientific papers at conferences (JMLR, ICLR, NeurIPS, ICML, GECCO, etc.).
