Jobbeschreibung

Job description

Ethon was built to eliminate the trillion-dollar waste problem in manufacturing. We are the technology leader in Industrial AI, building agentic workflows that help manufacturers optimize cost, quality, and speed of production. We are a fast-growing team driving massive impact in one of the largest and most under-served industries in the world.

We serve the world’s top manufacturers across the globe. From Siemens and Bosch to Lindt and Roche, our customers trust us to make their factories run better. We are backed by leading investors like Index Ventures, General Catalyst, and Earlybird. Our team draws from Google, Meta, Palantir, MBB, and top manufacturing companies, all here for the same reason: giving manufacturers the technology to run every factory at unprecedented productivity.

What is this job about?

In this role, you will operate at the intersection of applied machine learning and software engineering, building and deploying computer vision systems in real-world environments.

You will design, train, evaluate, and debug machine learning models, taking solutions from early prototypes through to robust, production-ready deployments. A part of your work will involve curating high-quality datasets to support model performance and continuous improvement.

You will build and apply state-of-the-art vision models, staying up to date with the latest advancements and integrating new approaches where they add value.

Job requirements

First and foremost, we believe in curious people who are eager to learn and grow. If you’re passionate about cutting-edge tech and driving major impact in manufacturing, we want to hear from you. Please also reach out if you don’t check all the points mentioned here.

What do you need to succeed in this role?

Must-Haves:

• Strong technical foundation in computer science with focus on computer vision (CV) and machine learning (ML), whether gained through formal education or substantial real-world experience
• Solid understanding of core ML and CV concepts, including training dynamics, generalization, bias-variance tradeoffs, evaluation methodology, and common failure modes
• Hands-on model training experience: able to set up training loops, debug convergence, tune hyperparameters, and evaluate properly on real CV tasks
• Shipped a model or CV pipeline in a production or near-production environment with real users beyond a research or internal project.
• Excellent communication skills in spoken and written English
• Strong motivation to work in a dynamic and fast-paced environment

Bonus:

• Expertise in visual quality, defect or anomaly detection
• Experience in model deployment, such as ONNX, and MLOps basics
• Experience in visualization of model internals and explainability

Why is Ethon right for you?

We work from our office in the center of Zürich. You will be here at least three days a week, because the hardest problems get solved in person.

Feedback loops are short. Access to founders is direct. People who prove themselves here grow fast and take on real responsibility.

Additionally, we offer:

• Performance-based career & growth paths
• On-site work with significant scope for flexible schedules
• Competitive compensation including stock options giving you a stake in Ethon's long-term success
• Vacation bonus if you take two consecutive weeks of vacation
• Flexible parental leave
• Learning budget for courses, conferences, and coaching

If this sounds like your kind of work, we would like to meet you.

We’re committed to building a team that reflects the diverse world we live in. We encourage applications from all backgrounds, and we especially welcome voices traditionally underrepresented in tech.
