Scalable Software Design for AI Services

Project description

Are you looking for an opportunity to strengthen your software engineering skills on a highly innovative AI project? Our team is developing a scalable cloud AI SaaS that allows us to prototype AI technology for IBM products with direct feedback and validation from our clients. Take a look at our

VP Lab

and

Inspecto services.

As part of our team, you will collaborate with experienced AI Software Engineers (Backend and Frontend) that will lead and help you to successfully complete the challenges of the proposed task. We can offer projects that focus on:

• Frontend and Backend development
• Real-time execution of AI Models on Cloud Services
• CI/CD and integration with modern tools
• OpenShift, Kubernetes, Databases, etc.

You will also have access to modern GPUs and Cloud infrastructures. The technology created in our team is powering IBM mainstream products, such as

Maximo Visual Inspection

and soon

watsonx.

This opportunity is particularly designed for students from ETH Zurich, as our IBM Research Laboratory is located just 40 minutes away from there. We welcome candidacies of students from EPFL, USI and other prestigious universities, also from abroad when the students have the possibility to finance their stay in Zurich for the duration of the project – which is generally 6 months.
