Meet the Engineering team
Our team missions & drivers
We simplify complexity and deliver the best product for our clients
Real world problems can be infinitely challenging. We strive to ensure that the complexity we bring to our models and product makes sense and provides benefits to the end user.
We strive for improvement every day, and a sustainable and scalable codebase
Using agile principles, we challenge the current state and develop better implementation and coding practices. Once a feature is built, we are never satisfied with its status and we continually investigate bottlenecks and limitations as they arise to make it more and more efficient.
We make Machine Learning a tool for humans
We will always organize our efforts to reach company goals and to ensure our clients always get the best support. We believe that Machine Learning empowers humans and does not replace them. In the same way that a truck allows workers to carry more loads, Machine Learning allows actuaries to process more data and generate models with a higher predictive power.
We have a strong sense of community
We support each other and take actions as a team.

Syrine, Software Engineer
It is hard to get bored working as a software engineer at Akur8, which makes it the most appealing to me. Working on different stacks and on several features can be challenging, but rewarding. Our pace is dynamic and we don’t run out of technical topics to share and discuss. The team is reliable and very passionate and I genuinely have a lot of fun working here!
Dariush, Software Engineering Manager
I like being part of Akur8 because I can clearly see the impact of my work. As a developer I can work on new technologies and we can collaborate with multiple teams and people from all backgrounds. You can always trust your teammates to help you and learn from them.
Ludovico, Lead Data Scientist
At Akur8, everything moves fast. There is space to make an impact and to learn about a lot of different topics. On any given day I may be working on understanding client needs, cloud infrastructure or cold hard math. It is always interesting and never boring.
Raphael, Data Scientist
The variety of topics tackled from client-facing projects to research is really challenging. The day-to-day impact is visible and it brings satisfaction to see the features I've been involved in being used by clients. Additionally, the team here at Akur8 is really friendly and competent, so you'll always find someone willing to help you!
Diego, Data Scientist
Aymon, Senior Data Scientist
I love that I can work on a variety of topics from math to programming to creating models with clients. I get to work on ambitious features for our cutting-edge product, and I can see the direct impact I'm having at all company levels.
Julien, Data Scientist
At Akur8, I love the diversity of topics and assignments, which allow me to use and develop my skills in mathematics, computer science, as well as client enagement. The team atmosphere is collaborative and trusting, and drives us forward to face new challenges. Work feels impactful and rewarding!
Arun, Lead Data Scientist
What I particularly enjoy working at Akur8 is seeing a feature I implemented being used by clients to solve real-world problems, and getting their feedback. I also love working with clients to understand their pain points during a pilot and then to propose solutions. Being part of a team of people who are good at their jobs and have a collaborative mindset - that's what excites and drives me each day.
