Software Engineer - Systems Engineering

Do you want to contribute to the frontier of Artificial Intelligence Research and Development? Come join us at Ren.Company BackgroundWe are an Intelligent Computing company operating at the forefront of Artificial General Intelligence Research and Development.Our mission is to build the perfect tools for the Human Mind.Ren is pioneering a new approach to building intelligent computing systems, based on an entirely new framework for Machine Learning called the Universal State Machine (USM). The USM enables a new kind of intelligent system; one that is not built on the primitives of Deep Learning, and does not come with its inherent limitations.You can learn more about the USM with the following resources:[Whitepaper] Infinite Time Turing Machines and their Applications[Talk] To Infinity and Beyond - ITTMs, Deep Learning, and the Universal State Machine[Video] Introducing the Universal State MachineOur goal is to leverage the USM to develop frontier-grade AI systems (like Open AI’sChatGPT or Google’s Gemini) at a fraction of the cost.The USM does not use the same computing primitives as Deep Learning, and needs a new Kernel for executing its algorithms. We are building a team of excellent Software Engineers to design and engineer the USM Kernel.You will be working in-person closely with the founders at the Ren office in Port City, Colombo.About The RoleJob Title and Function: Software Engineer - Systems EngineeringYour job will be to contribute to the development of the core USM Kernel.
