Do you want to apply your machine learning expertise to real-world challenges, working directly with companies on advanced AI solutions? As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will collaborate with organizations in Brabant to design, optimize, and scale AI workloads on state-of-the-art high-performance computing infrastructure. If you enjoy translating complex business and technical questions into robust, high-impact AI solutions in an international and interdisciplinary environment, we would like to meet you.
Artificial Intelligence is a key enabling technology for economic growth and societal progress, and a critical driver of transformation across industries, food systems, healthcare, energy, and security. Regions that invest early in high-quality computing infrastructure, talent development, and robust innovation ecosystems will define the competitive landscape of the future. Brabant benefits from excellent universities and universities of applied sciences, a strong technology-driven business community, and a favorable investment climate. However, significant potential remains untapped. By making targeted investments in High-Performance Computing and the development of applied AI expertise, the region can advance toward the level of Europe’s leading regions, further leverage its economic strengths, and position itself as a prominent AI hub.
To accelerate this ambition, Eindhoven University of Technology, Tilburg University, JADS the Province of North Brabant, and the Brabant Development Agency (BOM) have joined forces in the AI Supercomputing Initiative Brabant (AI-SIB). This initiative provides Brabant-based companies, knowledge institutions, and public organizations with access to large-scale computing power and the associated expertise.
The AI Supercomputing Initiative Brabant is designed as an ambitious multi-year program running until December 31, 2027. The steering committee will decide on a possible continuation of the initiative.
