Why join us? 👋

If you love technology and also staying on top of the news that matters, you’ll love life at Vable. We are a profitable SaaS business servicing the needs of international law firms and government departments, mostly in the USA and UK. We’re on a mission to help our clients become as efficient as possible when it comes to managing huge volumes of information - so that lawyers and business leaders can stay on top of the news that matters, and as a result make faster and better decisions.

Our enterprise news aggregation and alerting platform is used by over 70 global law firms. We are passionate about what we do - particularly, our Engineering department. This is where you come in. 

At Vable, we recognise that the key to growth is in a high-performing Engineer team. That’s why we’re seeking an AI Engineer.

We would love to hear from you if you have the criteria below: 📬

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related field.
• Minimum 3 years experience of polyglot software engineering (full stack with a focus on Java) with a desire to develop and grow.
• Proficiency in Python programming language and experience with ML frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch, and NLP frameworks like NLTK and spaCy.
• Familiarity with data preprocessing, feature engineering, and model evaluation techniques essential for machine learning projects.
• Strong understanding of various machine learning algorithms, including supervised and unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and neural networks.
• Hands-on experience with Natural Language Processing (NLP).
• Solid grasp of mathematical concepts relevant to AI, such as linear algebra, calculus, and statistics.
• Excellent written and spoken English. We have Vablers across the globe and we communicate everything in English.
• The right to live and work in the UK
  

🎯 Your Core Responsibilities

• Build and improve AI/NLP models for things like summarisation, or recommendations using Python (spaCy, NLTK, etc.).
• Collaborate with Engineers, Product and CS to figure out how AI features can solve actual customer problems.
• Evaluate models & iterate using precision/recall, confusion matrices, or manual spot checks.
• Contribute to architecture discussions for scaling AI features into production.
• Write clean, testable code in both Java and Python
• Own your projects. Autonomy is real at Vable. You’ll get direction, but it’s on you to drive it forward.

To be successful in this role, your values matter just as much as skills. Does this sound like you? ✨

• We are Kind and Empathetic = Our behaviour and words assume the best in people
• We are Always A Team = We are bound together by accountability
• We are Curious = A bunch from various backgrounds. We ask questions, plan things out, push the boundaries and challenge the status quo.
• We Take Ownership & Deliver = We are focused on our goals and love the details.

✅ Why work for Vable? 

A culture that we protect, we value the contributions each Vabler makes, comprehensive healthcare cover following probation, an L&D yearly budget, work from home office set up budget, employee assistance programme through Oliva and we are well established; we have been around for 20+ years.

❌ Why it may not be for you.

We are a 40 hour week, Mon-Fri and have core hours, have set norms and behaviours and each Vabler is expected to live up to these, everyone is expected to work autonomously, our roles are quite generalist and you will be expected to do areas that you perhaps don’t like or feel is not your job. No Vabler has this attitude and we get stuck in and pull our sleeves up.  If this isn’t you, best not apply.  

Interview Process 💌

1. Submit your CV, Cover Letter and Complete The Application Form Questions (30min-1 hour)
2. 1 way interview:  If after the application, we’re excited to proceed, you will be invited to a 1 way interview to explain your experience in more detail (10-15 mins)
3. Interview: You will then be invited to an interview with members of the Engineering team and this stage will include a technical task (1.5 hours)
