Researcher in application-oriented Reinforcement Learning

Apply cutting-edge research in Artificial Intelligence and Reinforcement Learning (RL) to real-world optimization and decision problems. Work on high-impact applications such as next-generation smart power grids.

• Assume responsibility in international and national research projects
• Contribute building blocks and methodology based on our open-source framework Maze, focused on simulation-based RL, together with an exceptional team of Research Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers and Infrastructure Experts
• Analyze industry-related optimization and decision problems and translate them into Machine Learning systems (covering the complete development cycle from simulation engineering up to agent development, training and deployment)
• Design and implement proof of concepts, develop prototypes in Python and PyTorch for both RL-ready simulations (environments) as well as RL agents
• Review state-of-the-art literature and judge its relevance for practical applicability

• Strong background in the field of RL and related Machine Learning disciplines
• Excellent Python programming skills, knowledge of PyTorch and a wide range of Machine Learning methods
• Passionate about all things, AI, Machine Learning and Data Science
• Self-driven problem solver who enjoys coding as much as tinkering
• Ability to work independently as well as part of a team
• Degree in computer science (MSc or Ph.D.) or in a similar field
• Valid work permit for Austria

• Enthusiastic, research-driven team with rich expertise in Reinforcement Learning and Computer Vision as well as distributed training, data engineering, ML ops and cloud architecture
• Working with the latest technologies at the interface between research and industry (enliteAI is an ELISE EU research network Organizing Node)
• Flexible work models: Remote work, an office in Vienna's 1st district and minimal core hours
• Budget and time allotment for the pursuit of individual R&D projects, training or conference participations
