LIFE AT SATALIA
As an organisation, we push the boundaries of data science, optimisation and artificial intelligence to solve the hardest problems in industry. Satalia is a community of individuals devoted to working on diverse and interesting projects that will challenge, and allow you to develop new skills, lead and contribute to the overall community.
Our ambition is to become a decentralised organisation of the future. Today this involves developing tools and processes to liberate and automate manual repetitive tasks, with a focus on freedom, transparency and trust.
At the core of our thinking is an approach to wellbeing and inclusivity. We unpack human behaviour and unpick prejudice to ensure a safe and inviting environment.
THE ROLE
We are investing massively in developing next generation generative AI tools, including workstreams covering text, image, video, audio, and research. We are building large scale, enterprise grade solutions and serving these innovations to our clients and WPP agency partners.
ROLE DESCRIPTION
You will be responsible for creating enterprise quality AI, ML and Data Science based solutions. You will be involved in technology selection, API design, and establishing core patterns within our products and client projects. You will consider the functional and non-functional requirements to inform these decisions and lead our development team in implementing them. You will work with our world class Data Science and Data Engineering teams to provide robust, high quality, performant cloud based solutions for our customers.
This is not a role for someone who doesn’t love development. Our technical architects are expected to prove solutions and contribute to the development team, as well as reviewing code and driving improvement to our development practice and processes. At the same time, you need to be a great communicator: the role includes direct interaction with our clients and business stakeholders, which are a mixture of technical and non-technical audiences.
The world of AI is evolving at a staggering pace, and we keep our knowledge fresh by continually looking for fresh technologies and sharing what we’ve learned. As an architect you would be expected to exemplify this both by bringing new ideas to our projects, but also listening to and assessing ideas from the team.
