At Bending Spoons, we’re striving to build one of the all‑time great companies. A company that serves a huge number of customers, where team members grow to their full potential, functions at unparalleled levels of effectiveness and efficiency, and creates value for shareholders at an extraordinary rate while adhering to high ethical standards.
To achieve this objective, we acquire a digital business with untapped potential and make it successful by leveraging our platform—comprising expertise, technologies, data, brand, talents, and culture. We then invest the proceeds into making our platform more powerful and into acquiring new businesses.
A few examples of your responsibilities
* Power digital products with AI. Work with product teams to identify high‑impact opportunities where AI can transform the user experience for millions, and build the solutions to make them happen. Drive the process from possibility to production, delivering code that’s robust, reproducible, and built for scale.
* Explore ways to push the boundaries of our AI capabilities. Stay at the bleeding edge of AI by investigating new models, techniques, and research. Learn fast across new domains, share findings with the team, and turn breakthrough ideas into production systems that deliver real‑world impact.
* Refine data foundations for exceptional results. Own the full data lifecycle—from acquisition and labeling to loading and management—to ensure our models are trained on clean, high‑quality datasets that power top‑performing systems.
* Own your impact, end‑to‑end. Set smart priorities, manage execution, and consistently deliver high‑quality results, even in ambiguous or fast‑changing environments. Balance technical depth with strong ownership, growing your skills while delivering meaningful contributions.
What we look for
* Reasoning ability. Solve complex problems from first principles, structure ideas sharply, resist biases, and take care of the details that matter.
* Drive. Be extremely ambitious, with initiative, effort, and tenacity that match the intensity of your ambition. Feel deeply responsible for your work and hold yourself to a high—and rising—bar.
* Team spirit. Give generously without expecting anything in return, support the best idea, and be reliable, honest, and transparent.
* Proficiency in English. Read, write, and speak proficiently in English.
What we offer
* Incredibly talented, entrepreneurial teams. Work in small, result‑oriented, autonomous teams with some of the brightest people in the field.
* An exceptional opportunity for growth. We hire individuals of outstanding potential and position them to thrive. Spooners in their 20s lead products worth hundreds of millions of dollars and soon play essential roles in major projects.
* Competitive pay and access to equity. Typical start‑level salary in London is £85,797 and €66,065 elsewhere in Europe, rising with experience and impact. You can also receive equity at a discounted price.
* All. These. Benefits. Flexible hours, remote working, unlimited learning and training, top‑of‑the‑market health insurance, a rich relocation package, generous parental support, and a yearly retreat to a stunning location.
