We’re looking for curious, driven talent who want to tackle real-world AI challenges and push boundaries in a dynamic environment. If that sounds like you, let’s chat!

About the Team

At Rossum, we are building a product-oriented applied AI Research team that works closely with a dedicated Tech Lead and Product Manager to ensure our work delivers maximum value to our users.

The team follows its own agile workflow with scientific method practices at its core: focusing on research, experimentation, iterative development, continuous improvement. Our researchers take end-to-end ownership of their work (with mentorship as needed), with the freedom to experiment, innovate, and contribute to shaping the product.

The team collaborates closely with the AI Platform and Annotation teams to bring AI capabilities into our product. All 3 teams are led by one of Rossum co-founders, Tomáš Tunys.

About our Tech Stack

We pride ourselves on building a modern, scalable, and efficient AI pipeline and fostering forward-thinking engineering culture.

While Python is our main programming language, our environment is intentionally diverse to support cutting-edge research:

• Frameworks & Libraries: PyTorch, PyTorch Lightning, Hugging Face Transformers, TensorFlow, along with good old NumPy, Pandas, and scikit-learn for ML modeling.

• MLOps: Kubeflow Pipelines for training automation, Kubernetes for scalable deployments, Triton Inference Server, ONNX Runtime, vLLM, and more for flexible inference.

• Tooling & Monitoring: JupyterLab, IPyWidgets/Holoviz-based debugging tools, Prometheus, Grafana, and EFK stack for observability.

• Databases & Hosting: PostgreSQL (with pgvector extension for vector similarity), GitLab (code repositories, CI/CD).

You’ll be encouraged to experiment with the latest tools and frameworks to push the boundaries of what our AI platform can do.
