AI Engineer at NeuralLead

Job ID: 40241267

Budget: €34 – €36 EUR

Company Description

NeuralLead is an AI-focused company building tools for the design, exploration, and experimentation of intelligent systems.

We develop platforms that make AI architectures explicit, inspectable, and discussable, with a strong emphasis on system-level reasoning and modular design.

Our work focuses on enabling engineers and researchers to think in terms of architectures rather than isolated models, bridging experimentation, research, and real-world deployment.

At NeuralLead, we are interested in how intelligent systems are structured, how they behave, and how they evolve over time, not in abstract automation, but in practical, buildable systems.


We’re done hiring from CVs.

At NeuralLead, we’ve decided to experiment with a different way of identifying AI talent.

Not based on titles, years of experience, or keywords, but on how you think in architectures.


The Challenge

Download NeuralLead Maker from our website

Build a neural architecture using the tool.

Use the information and material available on our website.

Submit the architecture along with a short explanation of your design choices.

To share your submission, you can choose one of the following options:

You may create a public or private GitHub repository with the project and send us the repository link via email at DM freelancer


Please make sure all required information is included and clearly documented.

We’re interested in clarity, originality, and reasoning, not perfection.



What happens next

The most interesting submissions will be invited to an interview process for a Head of AI Engineering role, with fully remote work and annual compensation up to €72,000 net, depending on profile and experience. This challenge is part of our talent discovery process.

It is not about speed. It is about how you approach complex systems when nothing is spelled out.

If this resonates with you, you already know what to do.


Role Description

Engineers selected through this challenge will work full-time with NeuralLead on the design and evolution of AI systems and neural architectures.

The role focuses on system-level reasoning, architectural decisions, and understanding model behavior, rather than implementing isolated algorithms or following predefined recipes.

You will contribute to the design, development, and optimization of machine learning models, with particular attention to neural networks and intelligent systems.

The work involves building scalable AI components, exploring architectural alternatives, and iterating on complex systems where requirements are often incomplete or evolving.

You will collaborate closely with a small, multidisciplinary team, contributing both to applied AI development and exploratory research, while staying aligned with real-world constraints and emerging trends in artificial intelligence.

This is a fully remote, full-time role.

Qualifications

This challenge is designed for engineers who already have a strong intuition for neural networks and architectural design.

You should be comfortable reasoning about AI systems, patterns, and model behavior, and able to justify design choices clearly.

Hands-on experience building or experimenting with AI models is expected, whether in applied projects, research, or personal work.

Formal degrees, titles, or specific frameworks are not required.

What matters is how you think, not what your CV looks like.
