The Chinese AI giant is looking to double in size as it seeks to become a ‘driving force’ in the creation of artificial general intelligence
DeepSeek is looking to “at least double the size of every department” in a new hiring spree, according to an announcement made by the Chinese AI champion on Thursday.
The firm announced openings in 33 positions across seven major categories, including full-stack development and algorithms, artificial intelligence (AI) core system R&D, deep learning research, and model data strategy product management and engineering.
“DeepSeek’s hiring philosophy is to let newcomers take on the most core and important tasks directly,” the firm said in the announcement, promising that new employees can quickly grow into “top talent” in the industry and become a “driving force” behind the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI) – AI that reaches or exceeds human capabilities.
“Humanity now stands on the eve of AGI,” the announcement said. “Join DeepSeek to experience the development of AGI first-hand, sit in the front row of this era and witness the birth of a new epoch.”
The firm said it “never sought geniuses” and welcomes applicants as long as there is something within them that shines.
Key position openings highlighted by the firm in the announcement include server-side development engineer, pre-training data engineer and supercomputing cluster R&D engineer, as well as specialised-domain data product managers in areas such as non-English foreign languages, medicine and law.
