Software/Machine Learning Engineer

Software/Machine Learning Engineer

(40 hours/week)

Will you be our new brain?

Geronimo.AI is a start-up in Delft and is a Dutch front runner in applying artificial intelligence to remote sensing data. Our product ChangeMapp automates geographical map updates using aerial images, and is used by a growing customer base of over 70 Dutch municipalities. We’re expanding the functionality of ChangeMapp, automating more steps in the process of geographical map updates, relying on machine learning solutions.

To get there, we are continuously improving our algorithms and keeping up with the state of the art in machine learning. We are a young team of TU Delft graduates that value having fun at work, while striving to be the best at what we do.

THE POSITION

We are looking for someone who can join our development team, enabling us to reach our technological goals faster. This means you will do a mix of experimentation and implementation work, resulting in a varied workload with ample room for creativity. Our team relies heavily on exchanging ideas and technical solutions with each other, often on the whiteboard. We value communication in a team, are not afraid to ask questions, and take time to help others with challenges. Our team of machine-learning engineers typically work on the following topics:

• Experimenting with established and novel ML techniques and AI models, applying them to train machine learning models on geographical raster and vector datasets
• Data engineering of large geospatial datasets
• Designing clever geometric algorithms
• Development of pre- and post-process pipelines around trained machine learning models to transform geographical data to the end product
• Some of the technologies that we use are Python, Tensorflow, Geopandas, Docker, Git, DVC, GDAL/OGR, QGIS. To guarantee reliable software we rely on typical development processes such as CI/CD and test-driven development.

Who are you?

• A programmer or software engineer.
• 0-5 years working experience in a relevant field.
• You enjoy applying both established and new theoretical concepts (such as new ML research) to practical problems.
• You like working in a team and you want to take ownership of your projects.
• You enjoy writing Python programs that leverage modern language features like typing, data classes, generators, and decorators
• You want to make informed technical design decisions that balance between complexity and completeness, and fast roll-out to clients.
• You are a little perfectionistic when it comes to writing software and are committed to high engineering standards.

Furthermore, you fulfill the following requirements:

• Good programming skills in Python
• Education: BSc + MSc in a relevant field or equivalent thinking level.
• Working knowledge and experience in at least one of the topics our team works on: ML/AI techniques, data engineering on geospatial datasets, geometric algorithms, pipelines and production software around AI models. We provide opportunities to learn the remaining topics on the job.

Not required, but experience with these topics is a plus:

• Development tools like git, CI/CD, Linux, poetry, docker
• GIS software (QGIS, GDAL, OGR) and libraries (shapely, geopandas, rasterio)
• TensorFlow, PyTorch, or another machine learning framework
• Deploying machine learning models in production
• Photogrammetry
• Optimization algorithms

Other requirements

• You already live in the Netherlands and can work from our Delft office.
• You have EU citizenship, or you already have a valid work permit for the Netherlands.
• You are available minimum 36 hours a week.

What do we offer

• Gross monthly salary of €3.000- €4.000 based on your experience (based on 40 h/w), with attractive salary growth based on personal performance.
• Financial bonus at the end of the year based on company performance.
• Traveling to our office? We will take care of your travel costs.
• Encourage professional growth at our company.
• Join our annual workcation, working from a place where the climate is a lot more pleasant.
• 25 vacation days.
• Although we prefer working at the office, we are flexible towards working from home.
• Every 3 weeks, you can work on interesting projects or topics that you come up with during our tech-Friday.
• Pleasant working conditions and great lunch at the office!
