Our software development team works closely with other teams in a flexible and informal atmosphere, very open to suggestions for improvement. You will be contributing to a C++ codebase of tools which help our customers implement accelerated machine learning applications on their devices. You will be working alongside hardware, research and customer engineers, and at all stages of the development, from requirements through to design, development and support.

With a passion for the technology, it will be important to keep up to date with the latest technologies, professionally and even through personal projects.

Committed to making your customers, stakeholders and colleagues successful, you’re an excellent communicator, listener and collaborator who builds trusted partnerships by delivering what you say, when you say.

- Object-oriented programming experience (C++, C#, Java) is essential.
You might also have
- Experience with Machine Learning related technologies such as TensorFlow or Caffe.
- An understanding of linear algebra and mathematical principles behind basic CNN operations, such as convolution or pooling.
- Some knowledge of Linux and Python
- Some knowledge of Continuous Integration and Agile development.
- You will also have an interest in learning about low level software.
- Good communication and the ability to persuade will be useful skills.
Who do you want to be?
Do you dare to think big? Do you want to change the status quo and speak up when you see how there’s a better way of doing things? We listen, we’re supportive and we’re open to new ideas. Whatever it takes to make an impact, you’ll be respected and helped along the way.
