- Job Title
- SOFTWARE ENGINEER: AI PRODUCTS
- Job Description
- About Atman Labs At Atman Labs we are building software to emulate proactive human expertise. Emulating human experts with deep knowledge and proactive assistance has largely been impossible to do via standalone Artificial Intelligence techniques. As an applied research and commercialization company we are deploying our products in a number of domains to demonstrate the value of our approach – from proactive shopping assistance, to personal teachers to healthcare concierges – and with this commercial focus advance our unique research that lies at the intersection of Reinforcement Learning rewards, Large Scale Knowledge Representation, and Predictive Models inspired by biological priors. The Future of Intelligent, Proactive Human-Machine Interaction We’re on a mission to redefine how expert systems seamlessly interact with humans. As a Member of Technical Staff, you'll pioneer the core software systems and infrastructure powering our innovative AI-native products. Your work will drive the backend services, APIs, storage systems, and data infrastructure necessary to capture, parse, retrieve, and proactively present knowledge at web-scale to help users explore a domain with expert intelligence. You'll lead development on robust systems handling documents, embeddings, knowledge graphs, and AI-driven predictions—ensuring performance, cost-efficiency, and traceability. Collaborating closely with our research team, you'll translate experimental AI system designs into scalable, production-grade solutions. Your full-stack skills will be essential in rapidly prototyping and launching projects spanning data collection, knowledge parsing, information retrieval, and agentic services. We're looking for a talented, execution-focused software engineer passionate about leveraging their deep Python expertise, data science acumen, and infrastructure prowess (Docker, GitHub Actions, AWS) to ship innovative AI products. Frontend experience, especially in React, is a valued bonus. If you're inspired by pioneering cutting-edge AI-native products and thrive in dynamic, interdisciplinary work environments, we'd love for you to join us in shaping the next generation of human-machine interaction. About You We are looking for ambitious and independent thinkers who have a deep desire to contribute and want to be part of the team that makes this a reality for humanity. As a Software Engineer at Atman, you should have all of these qualities: You have strong software engineering skills and industry experience in Python. You have a computer science, data science, or machine learning background, and can demonstrate production-grade projects, both inside and outside of work. You are a geek about technology. You are familiar with setting up infrastructure and deploying services with AWS (or Azure and GCP). You have experience deploying prototype services to production, with intimate knowledge of Docker and Github Actions. You are capable of being a full-stack developer, having both backend development experience in Python as well as front end skills, preferably in React. Moreover, in order to deeply fit within our culture, you should embody the following: You are capable of reasoning from first principles, where there is no trodden path, as well as critically evaluate when existing ideas are worth considering. You are equally capable as a software engineer as you are in formulating novel design ideas and your code proves it. You are articulate and can present your ideas in writing, in person and in small groups educating audiences at all levels on the application of generative models. You have a high ‘faker’ detector in others, and can critically evaluate truth from fiction in your own work. Your colleagues consider you a highly positive personality, you amplify the energy of others rather than dampen the mood. Your intensity goes from 0-1000 when you become authentically interested in a topic. You not only have interests in systems engineering but are deeply curious about a range of interdisciplinary topics ranging from computational creativity, knowledge graphs, recommendations, web scale search, deep learning, large language models, computer vision, human consciousness, and the opportunity to build truly intelligent systems in software that are inspired by biology. Outside work you can show high creativity and intensity in your pursuits; you cannot easily be characterized in one discipline. You consider yourself an innovator, and original thinker, not a follower. You are looking for a way to contribute to the world and want to join our team to do so. You want to work in person in London. We’ll sponsor your visa. We have the ambition to usher the world towards co-existing alongside Benevolent AGI. Not only do we believe that our work is a credible approach to functionally emulate human reasoning but we believe that this mission can also allow us to conceive many commercial products that yield billions of dollars of commercial revenues that can support an ambitious R&D effort for years to come. We are building for a future where humans coexist alongside benevolent expert systems and seek to advance the field from the front. We are looking for ambitious and independent thinkers who have a deep desire to contribute and want to be part of the team that makes this a reality for humanity. Apply with a short message and a list of your projects, your life story in 5 sentences, your favorite book or artist, and your resume to shravan@atmanlabs.ai.
