AI ENGINEER PERSONALIZATION
Stockholm On-Site Full-Time Immediate Start
Who We Are
We are a well-funded early-stage technology company on a mission to fundamentally redefine the way the world searches discovers and transacts built on a philosophy that puts the user first at every step.
The user is not simply a means of transaction. They are a valued participant whose data works for them not against them enriching their world and their own experience within it with them retaining full control.
Our mission is underpinned by proprietary patent-pending technology built on a novel engine and system.
The Problem You Will Be Solving
The internet was built to inform the many not to serve the individual. Platforms optimize for engagement extraction and consumption at global scale. AI has made this model even more efficient with the user still largely remaining the input not the full beneficiary.
The problem is not information. The world has never had more. The problem is that people give away a lifetime of data without receiving the personalized experience it should enable.
People should not have to search. They should simply find.
Who You Are
Highly talented and motivated to build products with people for people
You thrive in zero-to-one environments and find genuine satisfaction in creating from scratch
A fast-paced thinker with a relentless desire to learn improve and raise the standard around you
Able to inspire elevate and collaborate; you make the people around you better
A great communicator; you express complex ideas with clarity precision and confidence across all levels of the organization
Able to transform ideas into working systems and technical milestones with light speed and precision
Highly ambitious and action-driven; you thrive under pressure and find genuine energy in working at the edge of what is considered possible
Capable of designing and building production-grade systems in a fourth of the time most experienced and sane professionals would consider possible
What You Will Do
Build personalization systems that combine behavioral modeling dynamic user representations and real-time context-aware content delivery
Design and operate feature engineering pipelines that transform high-volume behavioral event streams into model-ready inputs within the latency and reliability constraints
Build recommendation systems that scale seamlessly from cold-start to data-rich production environments without requiring architectural changes
Implement exploration-exploitation frameworks such as contextual bandits online learning or reinforcement learning approaches that continuously optimize content delivery without heavy offline retraining cycles
Build feedback and learning infrastructure that translates user interactions into measurable model improvements on a continuous basis
Design evaluation frameworks capable of distinguishing genuine personalization quality from overfitting to easily measured proxy metrics
Requirements
Minimum Qualifications
MSc in Machine Learning Computer Science Statistics or a directly related quantitative field from KTH Chalmers ETH Zurich EPFL or an institution of equivalent standing

Preferred Qualifications
PhD in Machine Learning Computer Science or a directly related quantitative discipline; given significant weight in our assessment
Research depth in recommendation sequential modeling or online learning
Experience with privacy-preserving approaches to behavioral modeling
25 years of experience; exceptional graduates assessed on equal terms with experienced engineers
A body of independent work; published research open source contributions or personal projects that demonstrate what you build without instruction
