Role Description
**From Europe, for Europe – we are building Europes Business AI.**
We are Cologne's fastest-growing AI start-up.
SMEs benefit when internal knowledge becomes immediately usable and intelligent agents can respond to it. We believe in a future where business AI – including agents within amber and other platforms – works on a shared context layer, enabling teams to work faster, handoffs to be seamless, and expertise to remain within the company.
**Your Tasks**
* You integrate, fine-tune, and deploy multimodal models (vision \& language) to directly improve product quality, speed, and scalability
* You evaluate and benchmark frontier models on industry-specific datasets to ensure they perform optimally for our users
* You develop fast, lightweight AI systems to reduce latency in search and generation processes
* You stay ahead of the curve by researching and applying techniques like retrieval-augmented generation and open-source state-of-the-art (SOTA) models
* You collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and customer teams to turn business goals into smart, AI-powered features
* You guide technical experimentation and champion innovation, from small model tweaks to entirely new architectures
**Your Qualifiactions**
* You have experience working with AI models at a research institute as a working student or an extensive GitHub profile showcasing your expertise
* You are available for at least 4 months in a full-time position
* You have expertise in Large Language Models and their real-world applications, including fine-tuning, evaluation, and production deployment
* You have at least 1 year of hands-on experience with deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX), including training, scaling, and debugging neural networks
* You are fluent in at least one compiled or strongly typed programming language (e.g., Java, C\+\+, C#, Rust) with a solid foundation in systems-level thinking
* You are confidentally experienced with GitOps practices, CI/CD workflows, and collaborative engineering environments
* You are fluent in English and ideally German
* You have a strong interest in reading and applying scientific papers about deep neural networks and their applications
Nice to have: You already had the chance of taking on the challenges of an AI-based B2B startup
**Your Benefits**
* Team offsites – Since you will be working in an international team, we all meet twice a year somewhere in Europe
* Start at a company that lets you grow – whether you want to develop your skills in the field or learn new ones
* We promote your personal development through further training and room for personal responsibility
* We live a hybrid working model: we believe it is important to work together in person on a regular basis. That's why we meet three times a week at one of our locations
* The choice is yours: either a subsidised Germany-wide Deutschlandticket or an Urban Sports Club membership are on us
* A team of motivated people who are keen to make AI solutions accessible to medium-sized companies
* Work with the latest technologies and tools 🔨
