AI Engineer

Summary

Build and deploy proprietary AI models for cybersecurity, shaping backend architecture with Go, PyTorch, and vLLM while automating workflows.

Our client is building proprietary models to keep up with the rising cyber threat enabled by AI democratisation. This is a deeply technical endeavour that, when combined with a lean UX, can be used by organisations of any size. Their proprietary tech, and the way in which they tune their models, allows for deployment flexibility meeting the requirements for even the most sensitive clients.

Start: ASAP

Length: 6 months with possible extension

Location: Stockholm on-site 3-5 days per week

Our client is a small team of top tier talent within ML and engineering based in Stockholm. They value extreme ownership, high velocity and low-ego collaboration. What makes their work rare is that they train their own family of models exclusively on their own data.

What were looking for

  • 5+ years of building production systems, ideally at smaller companies.

  • Strong programming skills, applicable across the stack.
