? Build and Research at the frontier of AI

This is a very exciting time for companies at the frontier of AI, and Unloq is scaling fast. We’re building the system of record for business decisions, held to one standard: every recommendation has to be defensible to a board. We’re VC-backed, going live with significant enterprise customers, and building towards our Series A.

That makes this a rare chance to join a startup early in its growth, while the team is small, the big problems are still open, and the people who join now shape what Unloq becomes. As we grow, we’re building Unloq Research, our applied AI lab, and this role is one of its founding seats.

We’re looking for a one of a kind Founding Senior Applied AI Engineer to own causal inference and experiments, and prove what actually moves a company’s numbers before we tell a board to act on it. You’ll report directly to our CTO and work alongside our founding leads. Around 70% of your week is research, design, code and releases. The rest is leading your domain.

The Role




You’ll own the journey from a client’s decision to a proven cause.

• Building the causal layer, live in Q1 2027: map what drives each client’s numbers, estimate effects from natural experiments, and refute every estimate before it’s used
• Returning effects as honest ranges, by how much and with what lag, so nothing prescriptive ships until it’s calibrated
• Designing experiments with clients, such as a price change on one segment, and turning forecasts and causal estimates into “if we do X, here’s the range”
• Owning the attribution method that credits each decision with the result that followed
• Designing the evaluation that decides what ships: benchmarks, scoring rubrics and blind holdouts, and the statistics that make them trustworthy

In your first 90 days, you’ll learn the platform on real client questions, ship a first causal estimate with honest ranges on a real client problem, and move our evaluation from a single quality score to rub
