Applications are now open for the next generation of data scientists, product managers, prompt engineers and full stack software engineers, ready to operationalise the promise of AI.
Dublin-headquartered edtech company Learnosity has unveiled plans to create more than 20 high-value R&D roles, as it launches the new AI Labs Initiative, aimed at driving innovation in the edtech space.
The company has said it is looking to hire a range of data scientists, product managers, prompt engineers and full stack software engineers, to work on operationalising the potential of AI development, for the benefit of all.
Learnosity co-founder and CEO Gavin Cooney welcomed the opportunity to foster Ireland’s home-grown AI talent, acknowledging the potential the creation of new jobs will have in “making Ireland synonymous with AI innovation”.
A key focus for Learnosity and the AI Labs Initiative going forward, will be the democratisation of access to emerging technologies, as Cooney notes, it is an opportunity to lead by example “guided by an ethical compass”.
“Too often, the benefits of new technology advancements are only truly available to the largest companies and never make it into the hands of educators and students who need them most. We plan to change that.”
Thomas Byrne, Minister for Sport, Physical Education and the Gaeltacht, TD, commended Learnosity for basing the new roles in Ireland, stating it is a vote of confidence for the region’s technology sector and the attractive environment the Government is creating.
In other news for the business, Learnosity was recently declared one of the world’s leading edtech companies of 2024 in a list compiled by Time Magazine. In its inaugural list, Time ranked the world’s top 250 edtech companies based on their financial strength and industry impact, with Learnosity being the only Irish company named.
The edtech company placed 16th, ranking third across all European organisations and second within the EU. Applications for the new roles at Learnosity are now open to candidates who can direct their submissions to the company careers page.
