Algorithm Researcher

About the Position

We are seeking a talented Mathematics, Computer Science or Engineering graduate with an obsessive passion for predictive algorithms, to help us on our journey to becoming the leading technology service provider in the energy sector and beyond, interested in fundamental projects such as:

• Using neural networks for accelerating full physics wave propagation
• Exploring Bayesian Optimisation techniques for hyperparameter tuning in non-linear optimisation 
• Exploring theories and concepts to define and modify new loss functions to give the kinematic misfit between predicted and recorded sound

Skills and Requirements

You'd be a good fit if you can/have:

• maths / computer science Masters or PhD from a top-ranked institution
• a firm grasp of advanced undergraduate maths degree topics, in particular - Linear Algebra, Complex Analysis, Variational Principles, Optimisation, Machine Learning  
• some experience or demonstrable interest in voice or sound recognition algorithms and related programming paradigms (something you might use the NumPy/SciPy/OpenCV stack for)
• find your way around a Unix-y shell, and have some natural inclination towards automating things
• familiarity (or can learn very quickly) with most of the languages and frameworks used in our stack
• own problems end-to-end and willing to pick up whatever knowledge you're missing to get the job done 

Full Stack Developer

About the Position

• Web Application Development: You will be responsible for designing, developing, and implementing both front-end and back-end web applications.
