Are you obsessed with the possibilities of the emerging fields of artificial intelligence?
We’re looking for an aspiring AI Trainee who wants to help deliver real world solutions.

Who are we?

We are the DEUS initiative, and we are all about exploring AI in the service of humanity. No, we are not calling ourselves gods(!), but our name is a reference to ‘deus ex machina’ (or god from the machine in Latin). We believe that artificial intelligence technologies such as machine learning, computer vision and natural language processing will have a massive impact on the way we live, and we want to make sure that we create a positive impact on the world with these AI services.

As a happy coincidence, DEUS is also an acronym representing the quadrivium of key disciplines we believe are important to building successful AI-powered services: Data / Engineering / User-experience design / Strategy.

DEUS is a new initiative, but the founders have been working together very successfully for years, so there is a comfortable family feel to the company. We have an amazing set of international client partnerships (and projects/challenges). Our headquarters is located in the heart of the city centre of Amsterdam. We also have a team in Portugal that is based out of the beautiful city of Porto with an office close to the beach, and our Spanish team is based out of the charming center of A Coruña!

Who are you?

You are an engineering student eager to gain hands-on experience in developing and deploying AI solutions. You have some academic or practical experience with AI and software development, and you are passionate about learning and working with cutting-edge AI technologies. You have some familiarity with:

Working with LLMs and AI architectures (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar).
Python programming and AI-related frameworks.
The basics of AI model development and deployment.
Cloud computing concepts (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
Software development best practices, including version control (Git) and testing.
AI applications such as Natural Language Processing or Computer Vision.

...and some more points:

Written and verbal English is the only core requirement.
You are eager to learn and collaborate with different teams in an AI-focused environment.
You are comfortable asking questions, discussing ideas, and continuously improving your skills.
You are motivated to understand stakeholder needs, assisting in brainstorming and gathering requirements for AI projects.
You take initiative to explore and experiment with new technologies and approaches.
You are a curious and proactive problem solver, keen to develop your ability to balance the needs of different stakeholders and teams.
We will provide top hardware [MacBook Pro, etc.] and the latest software – we use the right tools for the job.

Some of the tasks you might be doing:

Work closely with AI Engineers and other team members to learn best practices and gain hands-on experience.
Assist in implementing AI integration layers and understanding multi-agent approaches.
Explore and experiment with AI and LLM technologies.
Support setting up new projects, following best practices for scalability and maintainability.
Learn and contribute to CI/CD processes.
Assist in implementing basic monitoring, logging, and alerting.
Write and improve simple unit tests.
Work with the business to gather requirements and understand AI project specifications.
Learn how to optimize AI models and back-end processes for better performance.
Get hands-on experience with infrastructure tools such as Terraform, Docker, and Helm charts.

note: If you don’t feel that you perfectly fit the description above, but you have some other background or skillset that you think could be of interest, please still get in touch!
We are dedicated to making a friendly and inclusive workplace. To put it bluntly, there is an unwritten ‘no assholes’ policy that applies to both ourselves and our clients, as we always want to enjoy our team dynamic. We do trips, conferences and events together on a regular basis, and we are always committed to cultivating a company that embraces differences. We strongly believe in flexibility, and you will be given a lot of freedom while translating complicated problems into easy-to-use products. This means managing your own priorities, trying out new things and working a flexible hours’ scheme.
