Careers at DI-DS

DI-DS builds and operates computer vision and AI systems for agricultural, security and federal customers, and runs an independent AI assurance practice. The team is small, so every role here ships work that a customer relies on.

How hiring works here

Every stage is asynchronous until the conversation at the end.

01

Apply

A five-minute form and a resume. No cover letter. GPA is neither asked nor considered.

02

Resume review

Nathan reads every application. If it fits, a screening link arrives by email, usually within a week. If it does not, you hear that too.

03

Screening exercise

About an hour, no timer, saves as you go. Built for the role: real code, a real project of yours, a few written answers. It is the main input to the decision.

04

One conversation

Forty-five minutes on your answers and your project. Then a decision in writing.
