Who we are

CommonAI is redefining the way we develop deeptech AI solutions through common infrastructure and collaborative engineering. CommonAI Compute is part of the CommonAI group, delivering cost effective multi-cloud compute services for AI teams.

The UK government is investing £1Billion into AI matched by £31Billion from US tech giants and more across UK industry. The UK's Industrial Strategy sets out an ambitious AI plan, but delivering this vision requires collaboration and engagement between government and the wider ecosystem. We have formed CommonAI to deliver on that.

We are backed by VC giant Anthemis, our founders have been behind the companies like Arm, Raspberry Pi, and LowRISC that put the first open-source semiconductor chip into a high-volume consumer product. This is an opportunity to join a fast-growing company in AI and cloud computing that is bringing together commercial investment, government and research to ensure that we maximise success of AI across the UK and Europe.

Your role

We are looking for engineers who strive to build secure, scalable systems that are a joy to use.  In this role you will be responsible for designing and building our cloud marketplace that lets AI researchers burst their workloads out to any cloud. You’ll work deeply with small and large cloud vendors and contribute to our platform and user experience. You will be working across both front-end and back-end technologies. The engineer will collaborate with cross-functional teams to design, develop, and implement cloud infrastructure solutions.

What you’ll do

·      Work with existing open-source products to build our platform, modifying code where necessary.

·      Define infrastructure as code to build, deploy and troubleshoot our multi-cloud platform.

·      Work within secure frameworks, following security best practices.

Who You Are

• Able to troubleshoot problems in production and work with key customers
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience

What else should you know

We allow flexible hybrid working, but aim for three days in the office for design and collaboration. Alternative arrangements can be made for exceptional people who live further away, although we will expect them to visit the office for team building and collaboration. Our offices are next to the Cambridge railway station with various onsite perks including a well-equipped gym.

Hiring Process:

1. 45 minutes introductory call with Dr Rosemary Francis, our CTO
2. 2 hour technical deep dive
