About the job
At akeno, the title of Senior Engineer carries significant weight. It signifies a proven track record of developing successful products, overcoming production challenges, and delivering results with precision. As a Senior Applied Research Engineer, you will possess the foresight to understand the implications of features on databases, APIs, and interconnected services, even in intricate areas like scheduling and other NP-hard problems.
You will collaborate within our AI & Optimization Team, a group of knowledgeable professionals who support each other and are eager to share insights. We do not have designated architects or tech leads; we believe that true seniority involves taking initiative and drafting high-quality solutions independently.
Your contributions will be at the core of our application, where we continually evolve our foundational algorithms to enhance the performance of our customers' supply chains. Our backend architecture incorporates a blend of constraint programming, adaptive heuristics, and machine learning to discover optimal solutions for our clients' factories.
In this role, you will tackle complex requirements in a domain that is not always mathematically solvable end-to-end. If you are motivated to develop scalable and generic solutions for challenging mathematical problems, you have found your ideal position!
