Stealth UK RecruitTech-AI Startup | Data scientist / AI Developer | REMOTE in EU/UK preferred | Part Time (initially)

Skilled AI Engineer sought with knowledge of relevant (Python, PyTorch, LLMs) technologies and a few years (between 1 to 5 years) of relevant experience. Combining technical expertise with an entrepreneurial mindset, the candidate will bring a unique blend of proficiency in AI frameworks, an ability to work independently, and a keen business sense to any project.

This is an opportunity to be part of, work with and also learn from a seasoned team on cutting-edge innovation within a funded Artificial Intelligence start-up based in London (currently in stealth mode) that has recently been awarded grant support from the UK Government through Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), and a role that has strong potential for growth and development in a growing business. The team comprises four senior individuals each with 15-20 year experiences in AI/technology, strategy/finance and product management.

This contract role will commence as soon as possible and have a minimum duration until 30 November 2023 and will be part-time or full-time (to be mutually agreed) and may also be suitable for those considering a short assignment or internship placement. There will be potential opportunity to extend the contract beyond this or consider employment depending on business need and candidate performance. The role is primarily a remote working role, and applications from candidates within the UK or Netherlands, and rest of Europe are preferred although other outstanding candidates from elsewhere in the world may also be considered.

We are looking for someone that has:

A start-up mentality: Approaches challenges with an entrepreneurial spirit, embracing the fast-paced nature of innovation. Iterates quickly through solutions and delivers results with speed and efficiency. Adapts swiftly to changing project requirements and proactively sets the direction to meet his/her objectives.

Technical proficiency: Possesses good understanding of Python, along with relevant frameworks like PyTorch. Able to work with various AI applications, including word embeddings (and similar) and data science models. Experience working with the OpenAI GPT API's is preferred. Well-versed in the full stack of AI development, from acquiring and wrangling data to implementing and fine-tuning sophisticated models.

Business acumen: What sets this profile apart is the ability to complement technical skills with a strong business acumen and common sense. Recognises the importance of aligning AI solutions with practical business goals. Able to translate business requirements relatively independently to his/her own work. Can act as a sparring partner for the team.

Independence: thrives in an autonomous work environment. Makes informed decisions and executes tasks effectively. Possesses the self-discipline and self-motivation necessary to excel without constant supervision, ensuring that projects progress smoothly and efficiently. We offer the ability to work mostly remote.

We encourage you to send your CV and apply even if you don't meet all of the requirements above and have talent and passion for AI technologies. If you think you might be a fit, feel free to reach out for a discussion with a current CV and we can look at the opportunity together. Email is in my profile - thanks for reading!

Turnstile (https://www.tryturnstile.com) | REMOTE (US/Canada) | Engineering | $155k-250k salary + equity

---

We're a small (20-person) team of repeat founders and seasoned operators building a usage-based revenue platform that helps SaaS companies price however they want. This is a tight-knit and senior crew — most of us have 10-25 years' experience, much of it together.

The last company we started, Second Measure (YC S15), scaled to 70+ people and tens of millions in revenue, received multiple “best places to work” awards, and was ultimately acquired by Bloomberg in a landmark deal.

We're looking for extraordinary builders to play a foundational role in a company designed for scale:

  - Backend Technical Lead
  - Frontend Technical Lead
  - Frontend Engineer
  - Fullstack Engineer 
We're well-funded by top investors (led by First Round Capital), fully distributed, and known for building intentional, inclusive culture. We offer competitive global rates (SF salary + equity), equal pay by level, work flexibility (including a 4-day core schedule), and comprehensive, family-friendly benefits.

I'm Mike, one of the founders— if interested, apply here (https://tryturnstile.com/about) and mention this post.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

We detached this comment from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36575096 . I know this kind of thing is frustrating but posting about it breaks the rules at the top of the thread.

Sorry about that, forgot the context. Would it have been on topic if phrased as a question? That was my original intent.

Yes I think that would have been fine. It's a subtle difference I suppose.

9 interviews (2 technical "screens"?) for an early startup?? If you were some HFT unicorn offering 400k salaries I'd understand, but you might want to consider relaxing your interview process. You're not going to get top candidates this way, they can spend 1/3 of that time to get similar/better offers somewhere else. I was about to apply, then I read through the process and decided not to.

I am generally very cynical about most AI startups but I think there's tons of room in this space -- it's an obvious fit, can provide simple workflows to solve pain points for both providers (your customers) and patients. Your model also builds inroads towards tons of extensible real-world applications in the healthcare world.

Worth noting Ambience Healthcare (and probably many others) approaching this space from a slightly different angle, while you're making the pre-intake forms more useful, they're transcribing the doctor-patient conversations.

Overall I think both approaches are solid. Be careful though as there's an increase in dark patterns around intake forms in the past couple years, I've noticed some concerning privacy practices. As a patient, this centers around being handed an iPad to fill out which contains an agreement that gives away a lot of the privacy of your health data. I expect more patients to start complaining about this practice and for it to eventually be clamped down on by some federal authority.

News articles have noted these privacy concerns around Phreezia[0], BetterHealth, and GoodRx so far. I doubt your group is headed that direction though -- most of the companies / business units who do that have a very limited business model that stops at "gather health data and either resell the data or use it internally to target advertisements", whereas your business appears to be strongly focused on creating real value for doctors and patients.
