Job Title: Software Engineer
Location: London office (Liverpool Street Once a week)
Salary: £40,000 – £55,000
Job Type: Fulltime
Reports to Lead Engineer
About You
You’re a recent graduate with the aim of becoming the best all-round software developer you can be. You take great pride in writing well tested code, probably Java, and you enjoy getting together with team mates to figure out how to make something work. You wouldn’t go as far as calling yourself a data scientist, but you did pick all the ML electives that you could, and you’d love to do some ‘real world’ ML.
With maybe a year or two of experience after college – if it involves any ML experience you’re really winning – now you’re looking for a role that scratches your itches for a bit more autonomy, interesting and challenging work across the entire stack, and the chance to put your passion for ML to good use. Whether its coding in Java or model training in Python, it’s all gravy and you love it.
You’re excited to come into our buzzing London office at least once a week to collaborate. You’re equally aware of using ‘deep flow’ time away from the office to maximise your development output.
You’re ‘hands on’, you ‘get stuck in’, and you take ownership when you can to ‘get cool stuff done’.
If this is describing you, you’ll love working with the Xerini team.
