Company
Founded in Berlin, autarc is a 30 person start-up who have just graduated from the Y Combinator in San Francisco. Our team consists of people in Sales, Tech and Operations, with the Engineering department currently 11 people and looking to grow to 14 by Q3 2025.
Role description
You will be working alongside our Senior Machine Learning Engineer and AI-focused Fullstack Engineer to help support our deep tech products and features. You will help integrate natural language processing and large language models into our product. You'll work on analysing written data and implementing generative text capabilities.
The role will include working with Computer Vision to a certain degree, although there will be no interaction with LiDAR, since these responsibilities lie with our Senior ML Engineer.
Tasks will generally include:
- Design, develop, and optimize large language models for specific use cases
- Fine-tune and customize pre-trained LLMs to improve performance on targeted tasks
- Implement efficient inference pipelines and model serving infrastructure
- Work with product teams to translate business requirements into technical specifications
- Working alongside our Fullstack Engineer to provide them with the tools to build accessible UI
- Stay current with the latest research advancements in LLM technology
The role is an 80/20 split, between Machine Learning (NLP, LLM) and Computer Vision
About us
Right now, 25% of CO2 emissions in Europe are caused by heating our buildings. In order for this to be reduced, the transition towards renewable energy needs to be simplified and made more accessible. There are too few installers to meet the growing demand for heat pumps, and a solution to match this trend needs to be brought to the market.
autarc is developing the leading operating system (OS) for heat pump installers, enabling a more digital and efficient installation process for heat pumps.
Through this, autarc is reducing the hurdles to decarbonizing single-family homes and small apartment buildings in Europe, with the goal to help with the planning and designing of 1 million heat pumps by 2030.
