Symbolica was founded in 2022 and recently raised over $30M from Khosla, General Catalyst, Buckley Ventures, Abstract Ventures, Day One Ventures, and other prominent Silicon Valley venture capital firms, to advance machine reasoning. We’re a well-resourced, nimble team with a drive to deliver exceptional AI capabilities in short order.

We are looking for aMachine Learning Infrastructure Engineering Leadto design, build, and optimize the infrastructure and tools that enable our research and development efforts. In this role, you will lead the development of scalable infrastructure that powers our machine learning experiments, model training, and deployment. You’ll work at the intersection of research and engineering, ensuring our R&D team has the robust platform they need to push the boundaries of AI, working with our GPU vendors, cloud providers, and on-prem servers.

Responsibilities

  1. Lead the implementation and management of infrastructure for large-scale machine learning workflows, including training systems and model deployment.
  2. Develop tools and frameworks to support the global team’s experiments and ensure reproducibility and scalability.
  3. Optimize compute resources and ensure efficient use of cloud and on-premises hardware for training and inference.
  4. Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines tailored for machine learning development.
  5. Collaborate closely with machine learning scientists, researchers, and engineers to identify and address infrastructure needs.

Preferred Qualifications

  1. Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  2. 5+ years of experience in software engineering or infrastructure roles, with at least 2 years in machine learning infrastructure.
  3. Proficiency in cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure) and containerization tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
  4. Experience building CI/CD pipelines for machine learning workflows.
  5. Exceptional problem-solving skills, with the ability to design and implement robust, scalable systems.

Maths for AI Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or analyst looking to move into AI or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in computer science, maths, engineering or a related subject applying for AI roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions say “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals” but rarely spell out what that means day to day. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree worth of theory to start applying. For most UK roles like Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, NLP Engineer or Computer Vision Engineer, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in a handful of topics: Linear algebra essentials Probability & statistics for uncertainty & evaluation Calculus essentials for gradients & backprop Optimisation basics for training & tuning A small amount of discrete maths for practical reasoning This guide turns vague requirements into a clear checklist, a 6-week learning plan & portfolio projects that prove you can translate maths into working code.

Neurodiversity in AI Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

The AI industry moves quickly, breaks rules & rewards people who see the world differently. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people – including those with ADHD, autism & dyslexia. If you’re neurodivergent & considering a career in artificial intelligence, you might have been told your brain is “too much”, “too scattered” or “too different” for a technical field. In reality, many of the strengths that come with ADHD, autism & dyslexia map beautifully onto AI work – from spotting patterns in data to creative problem-solving & deep focus. This guide is written for AI job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in an AI context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths match specific AI roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence during applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer picture of where you might thrive in AI – & how to set yourself up for success.
