  • First-class degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, _ ideally a Masters

  • Strong mathematical foundation, especially in algebra, number theory, and statistics.

  • Proficiency in Python and familiarity with machine learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow).

  • Understanding of NLP, computer vision, and retrieval methods.

  • Ability to turn theory into practical, deployable systems.

Desirable

  • Experience with Microsoft Azure or other cloud platforms.

  • Knowledge of vector search, RAG pipelines, and document chunking strategies.

  • Familiarity with advanced search techniques such as anisotropic vector quantisation.

  • Interest in explainable AI and model interpretability.

Why Join Us?

  • Work on groundbreaking AI projects with real-world impact.

  • Be part of a research-led, innovation-driven team.

  • Gain hands-on experience with state-of-the-art tools and techniques.

  • Enjoy excellent career development opportunities in AI/ML.
