Careers at Winterwell

Although we create innovative technology, we know that people are our greatest asset.

We are always looking for talented people to join our team. The work we offer is challenging and highly varied. We employ people both full-time (the "core team") and on a per-project basis via our network of associates.

Being an associate means access to exciting, varied and well-paid work - applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) and mathematics to real-world problems. Associate projects are typically short and focused, and range from a few days to a few months. They can include research, programming, or providing advice. The Winterwell network of associates offers flexibility: You are free to take or refuse projects as you please. It is aimed at experts with their own career path.
