Define and own the company research strategy aligned with product priorities and technical leverage across teams.
Build and lead a research team of AI researchers, data scientists, and research engineers.
Lead first-principles research in areas such as ASR, translation, information extraction, multimodal reasoning, visual pattern recognition, graph and temporal reasoning, and statistical analysis.
Build the external R&D pipeline by identifying opportunities, shaping bids, forming consortia, writing work packages, and leading awarded projects.
Establish research operating practices including reproducibility standards, benchmark suites, experiment tracking, model and data documentation, and portfolio reviews.
Turn research outputs into adoption-ready packages that delivery and product teams can use.
Represent Orcrist externally with customers, partners, universities, RTOs, industry associations, and public funding bodies.
Shape IP and dissemination strategy with leadership and legal stakeholders.
Partner closely with Innovation, Insights, Foundation, Platform, and customer-facing teams.
Coach senior researchers and raise standards for technical writing, scientific judgment, and cross-functional influence.

Requirements

8+ years in applied AI/ML research, data science, or equivalent deep-technical R&D roles.
3+ years leading research programmes, senior researchers, or cross-functional R&D initiatives.
Deep expertise in machine learning and AI research with strong mathematical and statistical foundations.
Expert-level Python proficiency and strong command of PyTorch and CUDA-backed model development.
Experience with distributed training or research infrastructure such as Ray, Horovod, or multi-GPU workflows.
Strong grounding in evaluation design, error analysis, benchmark construction, and reproducible experimentation.
Ability to move between research and applied systems concerns, including inference constraints and deployment trade-offs.
Experience in one or more of NLP, speech/audio, translation, computer vision, multimodal systems, knowledge graphs, temporal reasoning, or applied statistics on structured data.
Track record of original research that produced practical impact, such as shipped capabilities, patents, influential prototypes, or externally recognised outputs.
Proven experience winning or materially shaping collaborative R&D proposals, grants, tenders, or consortia.
Strong technical writing for research memos, proposals, work packages, and external-facing technical narratives.
Player-coach mentality with high standards, low ego, and a hands-on approach when needed.
Eligibility to work in Germany.
German language proficiency at C1+ and comfort working in German/EU public-sector environments.
Publications, patents, open-source contributions, or a recognized external technical profile are preferred.
Experience with EU or public R&D programmes such as EDF, Horizon Europe, DIANA, or EUDIS is preferred.
Experience in defence, law enforcement, geospatial, or intelligence-adjacent domains is preferred.
Familiarity with research-to-production ML systems such as Triton, KServe, or MLflow is preferred.
An existing network across universities, RTOs, primes, SMEs, or European innovation bodies is preferred.

Benefits

Opportunity to build the research function behind a sovereign European intelligence platform.
A mix of original research, real-world adoption, and public-interest impact.
The chance to shape both technical differentiation and external funding strategy.
Remote-first work in Germany with occasional team events in Berlin.
