Deep Learning Engineer

About Us

At THEKER, we’re taking on one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century: redefining how physical work gets done in the world.

We are a robotics and AI company building intelligent, adaptable systems that solve problems traditional automation never could. We recently closed the largest robotics Series A in Europe's history, and we're looking for the top 0.01% of talent to take on that mission with us, and build the biggest company in the world.

By joining us, you will have the chance to do the most meaningful work of your life, setting a new standard for industrial automation and driving breakthroughs with global reach, while being surrounded by a focused, talent-dense team that shares this ambition and is here to win.

Your role:

We’re looking for a Deep Learning Engineer to design, train, and deploy advanced AI models that power our robots. You’ll work on computer vision and natural language processing, enabling intelligent perception, decision-making, and real-world autonomy.

What we’re looking for

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in AI, Deep Learning, Computer Science, Data Science, or related field.
• Strong knowledge of Deep Learning techniques (CNNs, transformers, reinforcement learning, etc.).
• Proficiency with frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow.
• Strong problem-solving mindset and willingness to push the boundaries of robotics AI.
• Collaborative and open communicator.
• Willingness to reside in or relocate to Barcelona.
• Nice to have: experience with computer vision (object detection, segmentation), NLP, Python/C++ for implementation, or participation in projects (competitions, research, personal innovations).

You’ll thrive at THEKER if

• You’re excited by a fast-paced and ambitious environment. The opportunity ahead of us is enormous, and we’re going all in to capture it.
• You want responsibility early on, delivering at world-class standards for leading clients.
• You enjoy experimenting, iterating quickly, and embracing change as part of the learning process.
• You’re open to feedback, collaborative, and enjoy making decisions as a team

Main Responsibilities:

• Develop and implement Deep Learning models for robotic applications (vision, text, decision-making).
• Train, test, and optimize models to achieve high accuracy and real-time performance.
• Collaborate with robotics engineers to integrate AI models into robotic systems.
• Stay up to date with state-of-the-art techniques and apply them to real-world challenges.
• Contribute to the design and architecture of AI-driven systems that enhance robot autonomy.

What We Offer

• Being part of a fast-growing robotics and AI company with huge ambition, where your career can accelerate alongside us.
• The chance to make a real impact from day one, building robotics solutions with global reach.
• A focused, talent-dense team of passionate innovators who live and breathe robotics.
• An environment where new ideas are encouraged, and your contributions shape both the product and the company.
• 100% on-site work in Barcelona.

What the process looks like

1. Intro call with our Talent Team, 30 minutes.
2. Technical challenge (take-home).
3. Conversation with our technical team.
4. Meet the rest of the team and founders and work together on a live challenge at our offices.

These steps can be completed in 7 days.
