Vacancies: 1 Vacancy

Job Summary

At the ETH spin-off Lightly we build software solutions to help companies improve their deep learning models. The available data for deep learning grows faster than human tagging and available compute power. Our customers already face this problem and have too much data to process. As a solution we built software to identify and work with the most relevant samples only. Learn more about us on our website.

We are a team of talented developers and researchers in Zurich Prague and San Francisco and are backed by YCombinator. Every member of the team is going to have a massive impact.
