Join to apply for theMachine Learning Software Engineer, Researchrole atPhysicsX
PhysicsX is a deep-tech company with roots in numerical physics and Formula One, dedicated to accelerating hardware innovation at the speed of software.
We are building an AI-driven simulation software stack for engineering and manufacturing across advanced industries. By enabling high-fidelity, multi-physics simulation through AI inference across the entire engineering lifecycle, PhysicsX unlocks new levels of optimization and automation in design, manufacturing, and operations — empowering engineers to push the boundaries of possibility. Our customers include leading innovators in Aerospace & Defense, Materials, Energy, Semiconductors, and Automotive.
We are taking the next leap in building out our technology platform and product offering. In this context, we are looking for a capable and enthusiastic research data scientists to join our research team. If all of this sounds exciting to you, we would love to talk.
Note: We are currently recruiting for multiple positions, however please only apply for the role that best aligns with your skillset and career goals.
What You Will Do
- Work closely with our research scientists and simulation engineers to build and deliver models that address real-world physics and engineering problems
- Design, build and optimise machine learning models with a focus on scalability and efficiency in our application domain
- Transform prototype model implementations to robust and optimised implementations
- Implement distributed training architectures (e.g., data parallelism, parameter server, etc.) for multi-node/multi-GPU training and explore federated learning capacity using cloud (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and on-premise services.
- Work with research scientists to design, build and scale foundation models for science and engineering; helping to scale and optimise model training to large data and multi-GPU cloud compute
- Identify the best libraries, frameworks and tools for our modelling efforts to set us up for success
- Own Research work-streams at different levels, depending on seniority
- Discuss the results and implications of your work with colleagues and customers, especially how these results can address real-world problems
- Work at the intersection of data science and software engineering to translate the results of our Research into re-usable libraries, tooling and products
- Foster a nurturing environment for colleagues with less experience in ML / Engineering for them to grow and you to mentor
What You Bring To The Table
- Enthusiasm about developing machine learning solutions, especially deep learning and/or probabilistic methods, and associated supporting software solutions for science and engineering
- Ability to work autonomously and scope and effectively deliver projects across a variety of domains
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to analyse issues, identify causes, and recommend solutions quickly
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills — with teams and customers alike
MSc or PhD in computer science, machine learning, applied statistics, mathematics, physics, engineering, software engineering, or a related field, with a record of experience in any of the following:
- Scientific computing;
- High-performance computing (CPU / GPU clusters);
- Parallelised / distributed training for large / foundation models
Ideally >1 years of experience in a data-driven role, with exposure to:
- scaling and optimising ML models, training and serving foundation models at scale (federated learning a bonus);
- distributed computing frameworks (e.g., Spark, Dask) and high-performance computing frameworks (MPI, OpenMP, CUDA, Triton);
- cloud computing (on hyper-scaler platforms, e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP);
- building machine learning models and pipelines in Python, using common libraries and frameworks (e.g., NumPy, SciPy, Pandas, PyTorch, JAX), especially including deep learning applications;
- C/C++ for computer vision, geometry processing, or scientific computing;
- software engineering concepts and best practices (e.g., versioning, testing, CI/CD, API design, MLOps);
- container-ization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, Slurm);
- writing pipelines and experiment environments, including running experiments in pipelines in a systematic way
What We Offer
- Be part of something larger: Make an impact and meaningfully shape an early-stage company. Work on some of the most exciting and important topics there are. Do something you can be proud of
- Work with a fun group of colleagues that support you, challenge you and help you grow. We come from many different backgrounds, but what we have in common is the desire to operate at the very top of our fields and solve truly challenging problems in science and engineering. If you are similarly capable, caring and driven, you'll find yourself at home here
- Experience a truly flat hierarchy. Voicing your ideas is not only welcome but encouraged, especially when they challenge the status quo
- Work sustainably, striking the right balance between work and personal life.
- Receive a competitive compensation and equity package, in addition to plenty of perks such as generous vacation and parental leave, complimentary office food, as well as fun outings and events
- Opportunity to collaborate in our lovely Shoreditch office and enjoy a good proportion of time working from home, if desired. Get the opportunity to occasionally visit our customers' engineering sites and experience first-hand how our work is transforming their ways of working
- Use first-class equipment for working in-office or remotely, including HPC
We value diversity and are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of sex, race, religion, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, sexual orientation or gender identity. We strongly encourage individuals from groups traditionally underrepresented in tech to apply. To help make a change, we sponsor bright women from disadvantaged backgrounds through their university degrees in science and mathematics.Seniority level
