Description

About 10x Labs

We wrap our arms around businesses and help them scale. We work with enterprises and fast-growing companies to implement AI strategy, workflow automation, and build custom software. Not as a vendor, but as a genuine partner with skin in the game.

We move at a pace most businesses have never experienced, and we hold ourselves to a standard most agencies can't match. We don't pitch solutions. We sit with our clients, understand where they're stuck, and build the systems that get them unstuck. Quickly and properly.

The work is the kind engineers actually want: agent-first platforms running national field operations at around 90% automation, electric vehicle operating systems for everything from cars to trucks and buses, AI making real operational decisions in regulated industries, and rescues of platforms other teams couldn't deliver. And for the right businesses we go further. We unlock them: we build new products we come up with together, and we bring in capital through equity or debt to fund the growth those initiatives create.

Our founders have built energy flex markets, led transactions of billion-dollar businesses, and built software agencies that consistently deliver engineers in the top 3% globally. That pedigree shapes how we think, how we work, and what we expect from the people who join us.

The role

Our models don't live in notebooks. They forecast energy production and demand, score decisions inside agentic workflows, detect faults in fleets of field devices, and drive dispatch choices with money and grid stability attached. When the model is wrong, someone notices by lunchtime.

You'll own the full loop: the data pipelines that feed the models, the models themselves (classical ML earns its keep here: random forests and gradient boosting alongside time-series methods), and the deployment, monitoring and retraining that keep them honest in production. You'll work close to the operational systems your outputs drive, not three teams away from them.

What you will do

  • Build and run feature and data pipelines for training and inference on high-volume, time-series-heavy data
  • Develop, evaluate and tune models: forecasting, optimisation scoring, anomaly and fault detection
  • Deploy models into production systems with proper versioning, monitoring and drift detection
  • Work with our AI engineers to embed model-driven scoring inside agentic workflows
  • Validate model behaviour against historical data and simulation before it touches operations
  • Explain model decisions to clients and non-technical stakeholders in plain language

What you bring — Required

  • Strong Python and SQL across the full ML lifecycle: data prep, training, evaluation, deployment
  • Production ML experience: your models have run live, been monitored, drifted and been fixed
  • Depth in classical ML (gradient boosting, random forests, regression) and knowing when it beats deep learning
  • Serious time-series experience: forecasting, seasonality, late and messy data
  • Engineering fundamentals: your pipelines are tested, versioned and reproducible

Strongly preferred

  • Energy forecasting or optimisation experience (generation, demand, price)
  • Streaming/event-driven data infrastructure (Kafka or similar)
  • MLOps tooling: experiment tracking, model registries, automated retraining
  • Flex market and energy systems experience is always a big bonus

Nice to have

  • Optimisation methods (linear/mixed-integer programming) for dispatch-style problems
  • LLM evaluation experience alongside classical ML

Why this role

  • Your models will move real assets and real money in near real time, and you'll see the feedback loop close daily. Small senior team, no research theatre, and the rare setup where the person who builds the model also owns how it behaves in the wild.
