About Recursive

As the world's population grows, we are facing a number of global challenges in the realms of environmental conservation, societal equity and ensuring that nobody is left behind in the transition to a digital economy. Artificial intelligence is a key technology to not only address some symptoms of these issues, but also helping create completely new innovative approaches that can create a more sustainable economy and lifestyle.

Recursive is an AI consulting company based in Japan working on developing solutions to some of these challenging problems. We collaborate with large Japanese enterprises to create innovative solutions to sustainability challenges, merging in our expertise in AI research and our client's domain knowledge. Our development projects focus around the main themes of improving efficiency, accelerating innovation, risk mitigation and better work and education.

Recursive is founded by Tiago Ramalho and Katsutoshi Yamada. Tiago was a Senior Research Engineer at Google Deepmind and Lead Research scientist at Cogent labs and brings years of machine learning expertise to the company. Katsutoshi is a serial entrepreneur and AI expert with experience in developing and establishing innovative business models in Japan and abroad.

Founded in 2020, we are now looking to grow and expand our impact further, building on previous successes. One of many initiatives we are currently pursuing is a system to optimize irrigation of peatlands in Indonesia, helping to prevent forest fires and maximize carbon absorption. Learn more about this project by watching our presentation at the Google Cloud for Sustainability event as well as Tiago's talk at Pivot.

  2. Sales Project Management
    • Maintain meticulous records of project status, ensuring timely follow-ups and updates.
    • Analyze and report on project-related numbers and analytics, providing insights into sales project performance.
  3. Client Engagement and Collaboration
    • Collaborate closely with the Business Development team, ensuring that technical proposals align seamlessly with business objectives and client needs.
    • Engage directly with clients when necessary to gather detailed requirements or provide technical explanations.
    • Revise and refine proposals based on client feedback and changing requirements.
  4. Team Coordination and Communication
    • Foster open channels of communication between technical and business teams.
    • Motivate colleagues, ensuring everyone is aligned in purpose and direction.
    • Regularly convene meetings or syncs to update all stakeholders on project status and gather feedback.
  5. Continuous Learning and Innovation
    • Stay abreast of emerging technologies, tools, and best practices in the solution architecture domain.
    • Provide recommendations on how to enhance our technical offerings and sales approach based on market trends and client feedback.

Essential Qualities and Skills:

  • Proactivity: Ability to anticipate challenges and address them before they become problems.
  • Data-Driven: Makes decisions and suggestions based on solid data and analytics.
  • Organizational Skills: Maintains systematic and updated records of all projects, ensuring no details are missed.
  • Exceptional Communication: Can articulate complex technical concepts in a way that's clear to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Motivational: Inspires colleagues to give their best and aligns them towards common goals.
  • Individual Excellence: While teamwork is essential, this role also demands exceptional individual contributions in terms of analysis, design, and client engagement.

What you'll get at Recursive

In addition to a competitive salary and a generous personal time off allowance, the following aspects are central to our company culture:

  • Hybrid work and Work-life balance: we operate short core hours, and let team members fit their working time to their life circumstances. We believe people do their best work when they are trusted and released from artificial scheduling constraints.
  • Real responsibility: as an early employee in an ambitious startup we give you a lot of responsibility (and expect you to own it). We are looking for people who want this.
  • Growth: you bring a lot of experience to the table. We won't stop here - expect an incredibly steep learning curve and the growth opportunities that come with that.

We are an equal-opportunity employer and value diversity. We consider all applications equally and strongly encourage women and people from groups traditionally underrepresented in tech to apply. We can help with visa sponsorship.
