Data Scientist

Are you obsessed with the possibilities of the emerging fields of artificial intelligence? Do you believe we can design & develop our own futures? Are you proactive and passionate?

**We’re looking for an aspiring Data Scientist (Medior / Senior) who has a talent for problem solving, a keen interest in technology, and wants to help deliver real world solutions.**

**Who are we?**

We are the DEUS initiative, and we are all about exploring AI in the service of humanity. No, we are not calling ourselves gods(), but our name is a reference to ‘deus ex machina’ (god from the machine in Latin). We believe that artificial intelligence technologies such as machine learning, computer vision and natural language processing will have a massive impact on the way we live, and we want to make sure that we create a positive impact on the world with these AI services. As a happy coincidence, **DEUS** is also an acronym representing the 4 key disciplines we believe are important to building successful AI services**:D**ata / **E**ngineering / **U**ser-experience design / **S**trategy.
DEUS is a new initiative, but the founders have been working together for years so there is a family feel to the company. Our headquarters is located on the most iconic canal of Amsterdam, the Keizersgracht. We also have a team in Portugal that is based out of the beautiful city of Porto with an office close to the beach, and our Spanish team is based out of the charming center of A Coruña

**Who are you?**
- You have a Master’s Degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Maths or related field, with at least 3/5 years of experience in Machine Learning-driven projects with at least one of following areas: Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision and Forecasting. Additionally, you should have a cross understanding of all Machine Learning fields (Supervised, Unsupervised and Reinforcement Learning) together with methodologies to develop and maintain AI solutions.
- You have experience in stakeholder management from initial brainstorming and requirement’s elicitation to solution deployment and dev-ops. You should be able to pilot any given AI project, and together with the Data Science team devise a solution that respect both customer and DEUS.AI interests and ethics.
- You are a problem solver who is able to balance the needs and priorities of project stakeholders and teams.
- You take initiative to explore and work on new solutions and approaches together with the stakeholders that might entail problem (re)formulations, proposal of new technologies and development of disruptive solutions.
- You can play a role of a mentor by bringing people together for a common cause through a continuous motivational mindset and knowledge sharing as a way to push the team forward at any time.
You’ll join a small but fast-growing data science team (the D in DEUS), responsible for methodology and implementation of various AI projects. Some examples of tasks would be reviewing literature, developing prototypes to validate your solutions, managing both human and AI resources, contributing to the code base, and collaborating closely with other teams to make things happen.
**...and some more points**:

- Excellent written and verbal English; Dutch and any other languages are always a bonus
- Working experience with at least one machine learning framework (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn)
- Working experience with small / medium teams with heterogeneous mindset and cultural backgrounds
- Programming experience (e.g., Python)
- Bonus points for previous experience with databases, cloud computing, version control, best practices in software development
We will provide top hardware [macbook pro etc.] and the latest software - we use the right tools for the job.
**note**: If you don’t feel that you perfectly fit the description above, but you have some other background or skillset that you think could be of interest, please still get in touch

We are dedicated to making a friendly and inclusive workplace. To put it bluntly, there is an unwritten ‘no assholes’ policy that applies to both ourselves and our clients, as we always want to enjoy our team dynamic. We do trips, conferences and events together on a regular basis, and we are always committed to cultivating a company that embraces differences. We strongly believe in flexibility, and you will be given a lot of freedom while translating complicated problems into easy-to-use products. This means managing your own priorities, trying out new things and working a flexible hours’ scheme. Given the present COVID-19 situation, you’ll start working remotely. We are having regular meetings, discussions and online fun activities, and are hoping to be back in the office once the situation is under control.
