AI & Machine Learning Engineer

About this position

Company Description

RE:LAB is a design and innovation company specialized in shaping the interaction between people and complex technologies.

Since 2004, we have been working on products and systems used daily across the automotive, industrial, and consumer sectors. Our goal is to make advanced technology understandable, safe, and natural to use.

We don’t just design interfaces. We design experiences that bring together design, engineering, human factors, and artificial intelligence. Our multidisciplinary team tackles real-world challenges in highly complex contexts, where quality and reliability are essential.

We partner with global companies when user experience is not a detail, but a critical factor for a product’s success—when adoption, safety, and user trust truly make the difference.

At RE:LAB, we believe technology should feel human. This belief guides the way we work, the design decisions we make, and the relationships we build every day.

Designing human experiences for complex technologies.

Position

To strengthen our R&D deparment and innovation activities, we are looking for an AI & Machine Learning Engineer to contribute to the research and development of intelligent software solutions.

The role focuses on the design, experimentation, and implementation of AI-based applications, working across areas such as machine learning, generative AI, multimodal systems, and edge computing.

We are looking for a curious and technically motivated engineer who is interested in exploring emerging AI technologies and translating them into concrete applications and working prototypes.

• Contribute to the development of applications based on Large Language Models and Generative AI.
• Design and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) solutions and knowledge-based AI systems.
• Explore and develop multimodal applications combining different types of data and inputs.
• Contribute to the deployment and optimization of AI models for edge and resource-constrained environments.
• Develop prototypes and proof-of-concepts to evaluate emerging AI technologies.
• Support testing, evaluation, and performance analysis of AI models and applications.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams across software engineering, design, HMI, and research activities.
• Contribute to technical documentation and project deliverables.

Requirements

• Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or related technical fields.
• Good knowledge of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning principles.
• Strong programming skills, particularly in Python.
• Familiarity with modern AI frameworks and software development methodologies.
• Understanding of data processing, model evaluation, and experimentation workflows.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Curiosity toward emerging technologies and research-driven development.
• Ability to work effectively within multidisciplinary teams.
• Good command of the English language, both written and spoken.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI.
• Knowledge of RAG architectures, embeddings, vector databases, and information retrieval.
• Familiarity with multimodal AI, computer vision, speech, or natural language processing.
• Experience with frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, or similar.
• Familiarity with edge AI, model optimization, or deployment on embedded and resource-constrained platforms.
• Experience with cloud platforms, APIs, or containerized environments.
• Academic, research, or professional experience involving innovative AI applications.
