Nanonets has a vision to automate the most complex, time-consuming processes inside companies which take away hours of valuation time from employees. Our workflow automation platform is powered with the latest models that can make sense of even unstructured data like documents.

Our client footprint spans across brands such as Toyota, Boston Scientific, Bill.com and Entergy to name a few enabling businesses across a myriad of industries to unlock the potential of their visual and textual data.

Some of the technical challenges we deal with are fine-tuning SOTA VLM’s for workflow automation, using generating architectures for their superior emergent behaviour to understand the world but also constraining those architecture to reduce hallucination and generate structured workflows which can be used in completely automated manner.

We recently announced a series B round of $29 million in funding by Accel and are backed by the likes of existing investors including Elevation Capital & YCombinator. This infusion of capital underscores our commitment to driving innovation and expanding our reach in delivering cutting-edge AI solutions to businesses worldwide.

What We Expect From You

  • Strong Machine Learning & DL concepts.
  • Strong command in low-level operations involved in building architectures like Transformers, Efficientnet, ViT etc., and experience in implementing those in pytorch/jax/tensorflow.
  • Experience with the latest semi-supervised, unsupervised and few shot architectures in Deep Learning methods in NLP/CV domain
  • Strong command in probability and statistics.
  • Strong programming skills.
  • Have previously shipped something of significance, either implemented some paper or made significant changes in an existing architecture etc

Ideal candidate should have the following skillset

  • Experience building and deploying systems
  • Experience with Theano/Torch/Caffe/Keras/Python/Tensorflow all useful
  • Experience writing production software would be a plus
  • The ideal candidate should have developed their own DL architectures apart from using open source architectures.
  • Ideal candidate would have extensive experience with computer vision applications.

Interesting Projects Other Senior DL Engineers Have Completed

  • Deployed large scale multi-modal architectures that can understand both text and images really well.
  • Built an auto-ML platform that can automatically select best architecture, fine-tuning method based on type and amount of data.
  • Best in the world models to process documents like invoices, receipts, passports, driving licenses, etc
  • Hierarchical information extraction from documents. Robust modeling for the tree-like structure of sections inside sections in documents.
  • Extracting complex tables — wrapped around tables, multiple fields in a single column, cells spanning multiple columns, tables in warped images, etc.
  • Enabling few-shots learning by SOTA finetuning techniques.

Candidate should have experience working on Deep Learning with an engineering degree from a top tier institute

NanoNets

Agents that automate messy manual work like invoice and PO processing, delivering clean data to SAP, SFDC, and more

Nanonets agents understand key details in files – like invoices, POs, BoL & clinical documents – work through complex processes and act with transparency, making them the most reliable foundation for building workflows where details matter. Nanonets reduces processing time by 95% by automating messy manual processes from end-to-end and delivering clean data to systems of record like SAP, SFDC and more. That’s why Nanonets is the automation layer global enterprises reach for when accuracy is non-negotiable. Nanonets is used by global leaders including P&G, Bayer, Roche, Schneider Electric, Mondelez, Asian Paints, and more.
