Oliver Bernard have recently partnered with a high-growth AI fintech start-up who are looking for a Head of Research to lead a small, highly technical team.
This is not a traditional management role, you’ll be hands-on with the research while also owning the technical direction and helping take models into production.
What you’ll be doing:
- Lead and mentor a small research team
- Build and fine-tune models, including LLMs + supervised fine-tuning
- Set the research agenda and turn research into production-grade AI
- Solve challenges around scale, reliability, cost and latency
- Develop smaller, use-case-specific models to process millions of cases each month
- Help build AI systems for a highly regulated environment, where hallucinations simply aren't an option
What they’re looking for:
- Strong hands-on research background
- Proven experience building models and fine-tuning LLMs
- Comfortable bridging research production
- MLOps/deployment experience is a bonus, but not essential
- Someone who thrives in a high-ownership, early-stage environment
Series A | Small technical team | Huge ownership
