Québec QC, Canada Tandemlaunch Full time

TandemLaunch is looking to hire an experienced AI Lead to join the founding leadership team at a deep-tech startup in one of several application spaces. These include:

  • Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) in robotics: The enhancement of robotics control systems through the integration of PINNs enables autonomous agents to make more precise and efficient decisions in navigating complex environments while adhering to critical physical laws and constraints.
  • Elastic memory for efficient continual learning in AI: Inspired by the mechanisms underlying human memory, the implementation of elastic memory strategies for AI applications enables continuous adjustment of network structure and association strengths, yielding an order-of-magnitude improvement in memory-access performance over traditional static memory.
  • Deep-learning-assisted video frame interpolation for edge applications: Leveraging a powerful neural operator-based architecture, video frames can be interpolated independent of input resolution at low computation cost to improve real-time video streaming and playback experience, all while running on the network edge.

Looking for an AI application outside the fields listed above? No problem. Our venture development team will work with you to find innovative research from the world’s best universities to help driven entrepreneurs like yourself build an exceptional technology company.
