Jobbeschreibung

As the Founders Associate – AI/ML Consulting Lead, you’ll take a hands-on role in expanding our software engineering and AI/ML services.

Who we are: As a lean, bootstrapped team of 12, Code17 GmbH brings together senior software architects and pioneering ML researchers to partner with leading enterprises – Arvato, PwC, and AOK – on their toughest software engineering and AI challenges.

Our USP: At Code17, we build getML, a problem-agnostic machine learning software for predictive analytics on relational business data. Our patented algorithms automate feature discovery through supervised learning, uncovering prediction-relevant domain logic in unprecedented detail.
